I saw a few the other night on ebay. It's...um...interesting!
For a long time I knew about the silver version of this medal that was put into the 1993 Gold and Silver 5 coin set, but it wasn't until I was...
A love token I've had since I was around 10 years old. A friend of the family gave it to me in a box of random foreign stuff (the lot that got me...
After reading the thread about forgotten coins, I went through some I hadn't been through in a while and rediscovered this one Merc. [IMG] [IMG]
Just the staples: High Relief PCGS MS62 [IMG] [IMG] And Low Relief: NGC MS63 (Bit washed out of a pic, the luster is great) [IMG] [IMG]
I'd say all of the different types! Aside from that, in my opinion only, it depends on what you can afford. Having put a 7070 together (no gold)...
I know this ventures a little off the topic, but I'll agree about it being sad that we ask "why isn't it slabbed" even after I said what earlier,...
From what I can see it looks to be an ok coin unless it was sent into a TPG and came back cleaned, but it would have to be a very old cleaning to...
Well it didn't work, haha
Thanks guys! I have no idea what environment the Sac was in that made it tone, but hooray that it did! I did an ebay search to get a feel for how...
I was looking through a dealer's stock of mint sets and while flipping through some of the unboxed sets, I happened upon this Sacagawea. At first...

One of the biggest things to happen in the world of US Currency was the size change. Ever since I saw an example of one in the Guide to US...
I would probably want to get the coin away from water. As far as the toning goes, it looks like most of the silver has had exposure to cigarette...
I agree with you that it was a great buy. I know some people do this for the money they can make, and we all would like to make some I'm sure, but...
If there's one thing I learned from putting a 7070 together, it's that rarity of mintage means nothing except in prices. I have an 1804 half cent...
Love the details on the 1853 and 1859 quarters, and that's a pretty nice looking 1804 half cent, but that 1810 large cent I'd say is the prize...
I have 2 coins on my keychain, a holed 1844 large cent that I got when working at a local coin shop (gotta love freebies!) and a holed 1974D Ike...
Goin with 24!
