They have doubled in value since 2019. AGs go for $1200-1300, and FRs go for $600-700.
A significant number of the known examples have a die crack from a wing feather, and none are known with extensive die wear, which suggests a...
I recently had the privilege of searching a small hoard of roughly 1,850 1919 P dimes, which had never been searched for the DDO. That makes this...
That’s applicable to pre-1973 counterfeits. All post-1973 counterfeits are illegal to sell (The HPA verbiage does not give an intent limitation)...
