It looks hard to strike too (with all the leaf detail). The fireworks above that building on the one quarter (way to lazy to pay attention) looks...
Yes, thank you very much for summing it up in a very... matter of fact sort of way. And to answer the recurring (I just got on here for the first...
A nice 1898-O MS64 $1. Right on grade IMO because of the near flawless reverse, but an MS62.5 obverse.
I was at a coin show today accompanied by my grandfather, when I spotted the piece I "wanted for Chanukah". He bought it for me, and than I showed...
Wow, I picked up like nothing. I got 2 (not half bad, at ALL) Israeli pieces, and an 1898-O MS-64 morgan.
What are Norfeds? What happened to him? I'm rather new-er-ish-uh-oo-look-a-penny! to coin collecting, so...
I don't know what it is, but I have a good feeling this time. I don't even have a goal in mind other than a 2012-S Delani (I think it is Delani......

I'm checking the mail now. In the middle of writing this post, I got a yell from down stairs "Your package arrived!". The irony! On top of that I...
WHY WASN'T I INCLUDED (maybe because you don't mpost in the "What it's Worth" section of Cointalk). But anyway, welcome to Cointalk. I'm FE21, the...
I would have an original design. The obverse would be a centered head or bust of liberty modeled after 19th century coinage, while the reverse...
That's not a die crack, that's just a really low grade mint state morgan :)
How could a different die have the same die polish lines in the same area?
I was searching through a dealers GIANT junk box (probably several thousand coins), when I came across a very well worn large cent. The dealer had...
I found an 1803 large cent in a dealers junk box for $6. Now that is a good story (anyone want me to elaborate? Anyone?)!
Cool idea. I might pick up a silver eagle for this purpose when/if silver falls below $30.
This is my 1898 VAM 2A. It's not a full pic, but it shows what is necessary to distinguish the VAM. [ATTACH] http://www.vamworld.com/1898-P+VAM-2A
The Lincoln cent too in 2009 with the 4 reverses.
