Agreed. Canned goods and ammo are the ultimate hard currency.
I confess to not understanding why folks grade modern coins in the first place, but these stats make it seem downright loony. I get that 70s are...
Well, that too. But also, the coins the TPG's receive will tend to be the better ones. The coins with glaring errors are less likely to be...
Thought of that, but that reflects "survivor bias", so to speak. ie, the good pieces will be disproportionately send in for grading.
If the mint produces 100 coins intended for collectors (proof, unc, etc), approximately what percent will be 70s? 69s? lower? Does anyone have...
I understand the sentiment. God bless them all.
Fantastic. Thank you so much. You saved me a lot of aggravation.
Great to know, thank you. Where did you happen to see that it was merely a one-step process? I haven't seen anything anywhere that speaks about...

Amazing how much these prices have already declined. Looks like they're readily available for ~$175.
I finally took a good look at my Truman reverse proof. It's struck decidedly off-center (perhaps 1-2mm). I know next to nothing about error...
Of course. But what does past experience suggest about the first two of those three options? I suspect this set is available for less...
My ordering experience was the same as others described. I was completely on the ball with coins in my shopping cart right on time (albeit on...
For those that had Ike sets in our shopping carts, only to be rebuffed by a crappy website, we have a bit of a conundrum if we want the coins: buy...
