Once or twice a year I make a trip home to Virginia to visit my mother. There is a coin shop in Virginia Beach that I visit every time I'm there....
Got a truly stunning 1987-D out of a roll of Kennedy halves yesterday. It looked like someone had taken it out of the mint set just the day...
I know in '03 it wasn't hard to find a raw comman date Liberty DE in VF-30 to EF-45 for $450 or less. As late as the winter of '04 I saw slabbed...
I've tried to find the source for this information that has been quoted in many articles and blogs, but I've come up empty. The mint's Web site...
Well, I'd submit that there would be an extra step or two in the slabbing process, however minor, if PCGS were to place a detailed description as...
I've never seen a body bagged coin. Do they detail the reason(s) why it was body bagged, or is it just returned with a simple "can't be graded"...
I looked over the list and didn't see anything that really grabbed me. Oh well. Does anyone have the offical source for the list of products...
I completed my set of Frankins maybe a year ago (are sets ever really complete?) and began by buying a Dansco album. Sounds like you are going for...
I've often wondered this myself. Why not the Secret Service or the Bureau of ATF for that matter? I've concluded that its because the number of...
I have a pseudo collection of things I've found while searching rolls of Kenney halves. It includes guitar picks, driving range tokens, dimes,...
A guide Book of Double Eagle Gold Coins: A Complete History and Price Guide and The Official Red Book: A Guide Book of United States Coins...
I did the same thing when I was nearing completion of my set of Franklins. I found common dates/mint marks readily available loose in higher...
Yeah, me too. I like Saints, but I've always preferred the Liberty design. They typically cost less too which is an added bonus.
Cloud hit the nail on the head. "Common" DEs (usually Libertys, but not always) can be had in low MS and high AU grades for a relatively small...
LMAO [IMG] If they aren't enough I spit on them.
I've talked with several collectors who agree with this line of thinking. And I have to admit that I can't recall ever seeing the mint lower its...
Yeah, I'll go MS-64, maybe PL?
Sure, buy the coin not the holder, but I've never liked PCGS' holders. I much prefer NGC's, and I like ANACS' last "generation" best of all....
Anyone here pony up? I don't want to pry too far into the buying habits of others, but I'm curious as to how well 2008 AGEs are selling,...
To me this latest rally has been part welcome surprise on the one hand, and yet somewhat overdue from a more traditional perspective on the other,...
