When ya post one without the clues, that's when it gets tricky. Then Mike and Mark will chime in and say weak strike while I'm screaming wear :D
Then look for a nice Pillar dollar, those you can find in your range. Google Dan Sedwick, he's a dealer you can trust and he sells them. They...
Mid range VF - bullion value.
Maybe $20 to the right buyer.
Well I'm no expert. Far from it. And to be honest I have done little in the past year to even try and keep up with pricing. Just haven't had the...
On this coin, it's both. This one is actually an easy one, there are clues ! On the obverse, you notice the flat hair. OK, that's the most...
I think a large part of the reason that it is hard for some folks to understand is that all they have are pictures to look at. If they had...

In a great many cases mintage numbers are known, in great detail. But mintage numbers are not what matters, never have been. What matter is how...
Just a point of correction. I've never been a coin dealer in my life. He wasn't attacking you or going after you. That is your misperception....
If I understand you correctly - no. Albums, or any coins, should be stored in a closed and sealed container - not left out sitting on a shelf or...
Even if you accept 1% as the number, that would mean that each coin would weigh 0.007 ounces less that it did new. 7 one-thousands of an ounce...
