I did look and do see similar coins now a bit cheaper on his website. He would charge $10 shipping and I would not get the $10 ebay credit so it...
Yikes, where did you see that? I looked and didn't see it. Anyhow, $10 in eBay bucks lol.
Forgive my phrasing also. I used "investments" instead of "savings" in some cases. It's only a portion of my savings, so yes I agree that it...
I just bought this 1909s $5 Indian in XF40 for $455....
I went to a local coin show this past weekend with a determination to pick up a Barber Half type coin graded NGC or PCGS in VF or better. There...
[ATTACH] Picked these up this weekend for $45 and $70 respectively. Pretty new to Mercury collecting, and I've set my sights on MS65 or better...
I've never sent off a coin for grading, but I'm wanting to do it for this Flying Eagle Cent. I grade it as EF45 (possibly AU?). My main concern...

Hey all. I'm enjoying collecting quite a lot, but unfortunately my wife and kids don't share my enthusiasm so I'm glad at least there is a place...
So based on the date stamp....does it look doubled? Or is it just damaged? Or hard to tell?
Woops I mean ddo... I pulled this from a roll today and it looks like it possibly is or maybe just mashed. I'm still a collecting newbie though....
I need to play with my camera some more and I'll get some more later. What do you think about the "high D" in the second picture? Would you...
Hi all. I'm pretty new to collecting and I found this odd looking penny. The "D" is very high compared to the others. I googled D over D and...
Haha, I love grandpa rants. Thanks for the help all.
Well, according to my ANA guide LIBERTY being complete isn't a requirement until VF30. VF20 says they just must be visible, which they all are....
Hmm...not that I doubt you, but what source do you use? I was looking at PCGS photograde and the obverse is a dead on match to their VF20 and the...
