Did something important to your grandfather happen in 1975, like a son or grandson being born? Guessing it is a sentimental piece.
I have a couple 1927-1936 six pence coins. I think it is a cool design. "They have also been seen as a lucky charm for brides. There is an old...
Funny thing is that as silver prices go down, demand goes up, so premiums go up. I won't be able to go to the coin shop till Monday when I'll try...
Sorry for your loss. Maybe there is someone else in your family younger than you that you can start teaching about coins who will be the next...
I like the idea of a "coin draft" ala fantasy football.
You want dimes that are minted 1964 or older as they are 90% silver. Or the 1996-W. Here is a link to Roosevelt dime mintages:...
I've been to a couple estate auctions last summer where there was plenty of overpaying. I think some common Morgans were going for $40+. I bid...
I think $28 is just about right on. Two coin shops in my area have bumped up junk Morgan premiums in the past year as the price of silver has...

He also has a zero rating, and will still get over 30.
Zero from the 50's and 30's. Only 40's was the war nickel. I took 5 pics of the somalian coin with the I-phone, that was the best.
Used a $10 rebate check for nickels, 200 in total, had some interesting finds. Landed 1 war nickel 1943-P, an Elephant coin from Somalia, a 1965...
I think it matters mainly in how the coins were sold. If the dealer made any misrepresentations regarding spot price, premiums, what other shops...
Yeah, that is odd. I have consigned coins at a bid board auction at the coin shop near my work, they take 10%. I've made a little money on...
4 days before shipping shouldn't get neg'd, seems a little harsh. If it was a week or something maybe. I don't sell much on ebay, but I always...
Personally, I wouldn't pay $80 for the coin. But, the supply is very low (10,000) and the demand from Canadian collectors might go up. Right now...
