I ordered a set a couple of days ago also for grins and giggles. I consider the 2006 and 2011 sets to be more like the entree and this set to be...
Krispy, No, I have never lived outside of the United States, just Illinois, Minnesota, Missouri and Florida. I have been to Canada, Costa Rica,...
I'll order another set if you will. I wouldn't mind having a second.
October???? Oh, man, I thought they were saying September the last I heard. I think this is going to be 1 of those "it isn't over until it's...
Regardless of where we stand on these issues, I think there is something upon which we (Americans, that is) can agree. That is, all things...
I wish! God knows, I've been around long enough for it to be that. :smile

It's interesting how narrow the price spread is on this set between the 69s and the 70s; only $20.00 a coin. Maybe if the 69s have a lower...
If you're a slave to graded modern bullion, the best prices I have seen are at ModernCoinMart and Mint Products. If you are a basic collector and...
