That's been the wish of a lot of people for a long time, but so far no action. However, the mint just announced that there will be a Reagan...
Yes, I like them a lot. I don't have a big collection, but I have a nice selection: a 1851 (no mintmark), 1855 (Type 2 with nice toning), and an...

I'd appreciate opinions about this listing. 1851-O 3 CENT SILVER COIN-VERY LOW MINTAGE It looks to me like it's been harshly cleaned. The...
If your Dad got these in Vietnam some time ago, I'd be inclined to regard them as interesting artifacts, rather than a scam. Interesting fakes...

Didn't it occur to anyone at the mint that the remnants of the old mintmark were showing through?
Congratulations, Clembo! How does a coin end up with both a D and an S mint mark? The mints are located 1275 miles apart.
I carry a presidential dollar in an AirTite capsule. I started with a George Washington. Currently, I'm carrying a John Adams. It's helpful...
