I wonder if that really is a proof?? If so, I'd say that's a lucky buy! I guess to me it looks like a solid AU coin, but I'm not great at grading...
Ha, I like Conder's idea the best. I dislike slabs in general as I like to be able to hold my coins, and if you're purchasing a 1916D, it's...
Happy Birthday! Turning 18 is one of those great 'milestone' years...welcome to adult-hood, ha.
If that thing is not in a slab graded by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC (and it doesn't look like it is), then I would stay FAR away from it. 1883 No Cents...
Oh no, it looks like my Bounty Hunter may indeed be a cheap-o Walmart detector! :)
I would say post-mint damage, esp. when looking at the last picture showing the full coin. If there is a bump on the reverse, then that is...
Wow, I can't tell what andrew289 likes more - sarcasm and bitterness or coin collecting? I'm leaning towards the former...
Just curious...more valuable than silver, much cheaper than gold, and part of the platinum family. I don't know of any other countries that mint...
To be blunt, Hal Turner is a fool for buying into this cheesy conspiracy theory. They're fantasy pieces, nothing more. A North American Union?...
I think most people give up 'cause they don't ever find anything with a cheap detector! Better to spend a little extra on a machine that will...
I think coin shows are a great bet. I've never heard of any strictly paper money shows, though. There are always paper money dealers at coins...
Agreed, just an urban myth. Coin World spoke with the creator of the Amero pieces a few issues back, and even he admits that they're just fantasy...
Ha, shoulda noticed this in your 'Birthday Present' thread... Anyway, Happy Birthday! :D
I think my wife wants to buy clothes with that money, not gold. I've still got plenty of silver in my own collection, though!
Stamps seem so fragile. I'd be afraid to collect 'em because of that reason. Heck, I'm afraid to invest too much money into the paper money...
The toning is just beautiful on that...uh...slug.
You should be able to find a wide variety of notes - even in CU condition - for under $15 if you hunt around. I have a $2 (1953 I think) United...
Ha, thanks for the site! I used their calculator, and the probably ask price is more like $47.21 per roll. Now let's see, there's about 10 rolls...
It's a family collection I'm sorting through, and unfortunately I'm not the heir to it, but rather my wife and her sister and brother are. If I...
I have a quick question. I have a bunch of common date silver coins in rolls that I will be trying to sell soon at an upcoming coin show. I know...
