I have questions about proof sets too. First question is whether a proof set that has been cracked open can be resealed? That is, if I buy one...
I live on the west coast, and typically can only find Denver coins, edited.
Hmmm, I could interpret that to mean that their BIN was just waaaay too high, or that my coin is far inferior. I'll go with the first. :D
I tossed this one aside tonight when I first saw it, thinking that the lines indicated some sort of "dipping" or something -- except that the...
Is this worth having slabbed and graded? It doesn't look like it'd grade extremely well, but after seeing this on ebay, I'm wondering...:...

This is very true, and it's what motivated me to drag everything out and start going through it. Some coins I have several rolls of, for...
I know. I used to go coin shooting with a metal detector, and zinc coins buried in the ground do not age very well. On the other hand, I wonder...
