I don't use a website. I use the Greysheet.
I'm finally getting around to ID'ing and imaging my Braided Hair large cents. This will take a while. This effort is for show-and-tell and also...
There are plenty of serial numbers that catch the eye but I stick to the ones listed in Azpiazu's book. The OP's note is certainly in the "catch...

Thanks, I had the same question. Now I need a bit more explanation. Are these NIFC's you're asking about specifically US Government issues or any...
I don't understand bullion investing/speculation. It's the sort of thing (like stocks) that is beyond me. So I don't buy bullion. But for those...
