So I'm travelling last week and my wife is emptying her spare change bin to wrap and take to the bank (she's not a coin collector at all). When...
Couldn't agree more! My Father's estate included proof sets from the 1970's...look them up on ebay...I think inflation has far outpaced them as...
I buy mutual funds for investment, stocks for a bit of educated speculation and coins purely for enjoyment. Like others, I prefer unslabbed coins...
I'd call it a lesson learned. Let's go by the numbers game. With the added knowledge that since the Wayte Raymond collectors boards of the...
Kudos to that generous fellow! Actually @green18 your post was one that was on my mind when I received the coins yesterday. @BooksB4Coins...
Lol! I guess that's why I long ago abandoned coin roll hunting....Those repunched MM's and missing pillars made me cross-eyed!
I would agree, to put the group of collectors into two simple categories is a bit of a stretch. Especially without hard data to support the claim...
Congrats on at least having one of the varieties! So many new members post pics hoping for a variety that aren't even close!
Yeah, I think whoever bought them was going to flip them anyway. They had over 5K reviews...not thinking it's the little guy. Anyway, Horrible...
Well now. That was quick...I put them on Ebay for Lowest Buy It now price, less 15. It took about 15 minutes to sell. I wasn't quite expecting...
Thanks for the feedback. I am on the fence between lowest buy it now, less 15 or going with the market and letting them pay what they will....

Hello all, been a while since I posted. I was one of the folks who ordered a 2017 mint set and got the BACKORDER status a few hours later....
Now I know why my coin collection isn't as valuable as I hoped! Curse you cointalk forum.! :-)
Great post. I've just started my research foray into Large Cents and this is a wonderful supplement. This cent was one of the coins in the...
Kudos to you for being the guy who pushed back and got a satisfactory resolution! One of my local coin dealers won't even sell on Ebay because of...
Just as an example. I got this really pretty (I prefer RB) ms 1935 on ebay for 3.75. Knowledge is power! [ATTACH]
Don't get discouraged. Some of us are grumpier than others but still willing to provide great information. I'm a pretty new member and I think...
This seems to be like about anything in life. If the process to correct the problem is so onerous, most of us won't go through the time and...
Thanks for the offer. I actually have a 1925 in an OGH that I can't bring myself to break out. I think I'd just put myself in the same dilemma....
