Thanks so much, could you share a few titles. I'm right now looking for the Encyclopedia of U.S. Gold Coins 1795 - 1933 by J Jeff Garrett and Ron...
According to PCGS, "All known 1931-D twenties are uncirculated". That doesn't make sense to me. The stated mintage was 106,500. Perhaps none were...
It's a sad state of affairs that the US Mint doesn't continue continuing a program like this. Quarters, nickels, dimes, cents. We'd all love it....
I'll try that for the ring part. Don't take any offense, I had the acetone materials on hand.
I was able to remove the "smudge" with a standard acetone bath and rinse. The residue around the ring didn't change and may be a result of...
This is the 2020 £2 silver proof Mayflower. There is a noticeable smudge at the 8:00 position. Also around the ring where the two metals meet. I...
Typically, proof sets eventually sell on the secondary market for less than the issue price. Extreme example: The 2022 set is $35 and contains 10...
https://coinweek.com/world-coins/ukraine-wins-coin-of-the-year/ My favorites are the US $100 Gold "Western Horse" and the Austrian 25 Euro,...
Thank you intrepid fact-finders! PS: I wish gold was more affordable, back to $500/oz. No harm meant to investors and collectors but I'd love to...
I have become interested in modern UK Royal Mint coins. They put out a LOT of stuff and many in very limited mintages like 5000. Are there any...
I'm in the market for a 2020 UK £2 Silver Mayflower Voyage coin. I know Royal Mint coins get very little traction here so if you know a better...
I remember reading somewhere that the mintage of any coins must be backed by an authorization from Congress. In some drafting error or overlook or...
The lack of the 2009 set is not that important as I already have those coins. A good starting point is that 50 coins x $6 = $300. I don't care...
The whole "coin shortage" thing with the reality of stores posting such signs and the increasing use of debit/credit cards put a big damper on the...

1980 Mexican Pesos had silver? wasn't silver near all time highs?
Conclusion: I was looking for some very common Standing Liberty Quarters in AU. Unsurprisingly, the final bids with BP is equivalent enough to...
I agree. There is also the value of not doing the legwork to find the coin. I'm sure I can ask a LCS can you find me XYZ and it make take 6...
That's amazing, is it your coin? Do you think people would pay more for this than an MS60-62? Where is wear?? My general preference is for coins...
That's great advice, thanks. I'll try and research how to look for dipped coins and the varying degrees.
