I'd do what Cloudsweeper suggests and go for the silver American Eagles. Buying only one 1/4 gold Eagle is like like buying one share of stock...
Maybe I'll try to eBay it. We'll see. :mad::mad::mad: What a sad, sad coin. :mad::mad::mad:
I am totally with you on this, as I'm sure most of us here are. Sadly, I don't think it's gonna happen anytime soon. And to think, in 1979, we...
Coin World's Coin Values (online) puts the retail value of a Good 1909 S at $110. Clearly, this thing has negative eye-appeal, but it's still a...
I'm guessing it's probably AU-55. It's hard to tell with nickel coins, since you really need to have the coin in hand in order to distinguish...
My family sometimes jokes about it, but they generally don't give a hoot about my collecting addiction. My mum collects various antiques, so she...
It is a novelty piece, made by machining two real quarters and essentially fitting one inside another. Usually they're made as magic props.
I have two 1924 D's with MUCH better eye-appeal that I plan on selling as well, plus one slider 1950 D Jefferson. After selling all of these, I...
Thanks for the responses, guys! If I can afford a $2.50 Indian after selling all these at an upcoming show, I'll go for it. Otherwise, I'll be...
I agree. I have a nice 1950 D for my type set, and I think I purchased it for a whopping $18. Furthermore, in a Whitman Jefferson nickel folder I...
What do you guys think happened to this 1909 S Lincoln cent? I don't think it's PVC damage, as I found it in an old Whitman folder. I'm not...
Any 'MS-70' modern coin, IMO. I just can't see these 'ultra high-grade' coins holding up in the future compared to the keys, semi-keys, and true...
I like it! :thumb:
Got mine last week, on time. It's nice. Still waiting for this week's copy to come in, though.
I think it would be pretty funny if, in fact, it did come back with a substantially higher grade from NGC (if it were submitted while still in the...
The back's not so bad...then again, who cares about the reverse when the obverse is so ugly.
LOL. That is ridiculous. I wonder how much it cost to have coins "graded" by SGS....?
LOL. I can see it now..."Deathwish 6: The Chief's Revenge." :D:D:D
This is why I don't trust Littleton's coins. They sell way too much junk, and it's all pretty overpriced IMO.
Possible ANACS slab problem aside, the thing still has terrible eye-appeal, key-date or not...
