When I was really young, my grandfather had a change tray on his dresser full of old change he pulled from circulation. He had everything back to...
Thanks! I should look into these more closely and see if I can add to what I have. They're really attractive coins "in hand". I like the "Owl" coin.
When I was a kid, I collected circulated coins and put them in cardboard folders. I could only dream of owning a complete set of circulated...
Wow!
It seems odd to me that coins this old are this cheap. Is there a huge supply of originals?
Always the wise choice. :smuggrin:
I see coins like that on eBay, but have no idea how to tell if they're real. Prices suggest they're not.
Franklins go down to VF20. It basically goes down to where changes in grade stop producing a noticeable change in price. I just use the Red Book...

Beautiful coin! ...and only 3000.
The Mint's order processing is totally screwed up! I stopped ordering from them.
Get these publications while they're still legal to print. :)
I won an auction for an Unc roll of 1943-S a while back ($189 winning bid). The seller, from whom I had previously done business with no problem,...
Perhaps he took his family to the beach...then, checking the "reject" folder when he got back, saw your bids, and countered your highest reject. :D
I think you're comparing a business strike to a proof strike...apples and oranges.
Ha! He must have countered your $90 offer and missed your $125 offer. :woot:
It should weigh 3.11 grams (bronze-pre1983) or 2.5 grams (copper-plated zinc-post1982). It's definitely altered/damaged.
Welcome to CT! It would be interesting to know what it weighs. Chances are, the coin was altered for some other purpose. Meaning, no added value.
