A bit discouraging. Makes it seem like the little guy is being manipulated.
I would like to help my local coin club and keep it from disappearing. There have been no new members for now for quite some time and fewer of...
Will you include the 94 and 97 matte coins? I have set w/out any proofs or SMS coins but would like to put the whole set together. If so, I'll...
I think you got a good price and a nice coin. Was it your last for a set?
Bonzo could be on the reverse.
There are at least three shopts that sell coins at the big flea market right off the Pigeon Forge exit. They at least have a lot of coins to look at.

I continue to believe that ANACS is a very good choice for individual collectors. I do not work for them or have any contacts with them but I did...
Their economy service is slow for several reasons. 1) That service takes a back seat to the other, quicker servies. 2) ANACS is VERY popular...
I use them all the time. After I get a few rolls at the bank I spend the ones that are not worth keeping. i.e. silver, proofs, 78-D is very hard...
Thats not too uncommon on Kennedy's. Overpolishing is the source of the "no FG" varieties and you can find them polished into the obverse detail too.
It looks more like an off-center strike to me rather than double struck. Possibly a partial collar. The mint has been letting fewer and fewer...
