Many pictures are available on coppercoins.com and lincolncentresource.com that you might use to see if yours is similar.
I don't collect them myself, but give them to the kids in my family who seem to appreciate them quite a bit. I don't bother with giving one of...
For me its the 1909-S Indian head in Au-58 with outstanding eye appeal. I've been looking since 2005 and can't find anything that really calls out...
Please do not use this method on ANY coins. You are doing more damage than good. And to answer your questions - it is VERY frowned upon, and yes...

I'm not pimping her out, I'm selling her outright :mouth: (I'd better be careful now...my wife sometimes stands behind me and reads what I'm...
I agree with this. I love my PM but I use these as a hedge against inflation, not investment. I am 28, so nowhere near retirement, but I think of...
I really like this thread :) I'll take the 1909. Why? first I love the eye-appeal of the obverse, just beautiful. Also, this is the grade I...
