I hate the eagle on the reverse of the Franklins. Kind of has a "there's a big empty space, let's cram an eagle in there" look to it. Looks...
Box of cents today: 17 Wheats and my 4th IHC from CRH, which is now my oldest CRH coin find. It's really corrorded and beat up, so the date is...
I kept enough pre-82 cents to fill 2 boxes, then I stopped keeping them. And it's illegal to melt them because they don't want the supply of...
Those are weird looking plastic tubes/rolls, whatever. Never seen something like that.
Yeah, but a silver-clad coin looks silver-clad. A CuNi-clad coin looks CuNi-clad. That one looks CuNi-clad. They definitely don't look very...
2 Boxes of nickels last night: (results from both boxes together) 3 Buffs 1 War Nick 1 Grosse Ile Bus token (used in the 70s I've learned, but it...
Doesn't matter what it sounds like. Even if it were a planchet meant for use in 1975 (for 40% silver bicentennial quarters), the edge would look...
The folks who pay more than face for these kind of things are people who are not collectors. They're flea market shoppers, HSN watchers, Readers...
You could always get a flat rate box and a lot of tape and mail your dumps back home. It'd be cheaper than taking the hit at a coinstar-type machine.

I believe that dealers (or whoever) will send in a ton of coins, and only have them grade the ones that hit a certain mark (MS-67 or higher,...
Aren't these an alloy? I don't think they're plated with anything.
For common date wheaties? I'm pretty sure they're likely legit.
I think the issue in from 1 to 4 o'clock is where they clamped the coin to something when they counterstamped it.
Do you have an account at a bank that has branches in that area? Even if you have to re-roll it, you could probably get rid of the change...
That's pretty wild. Somebody must've dumped a collection.
That is surely a good price on those Krause catalogs. However, the 2001-Date book will be outdated quick. But.... still, for 13 bucks, good buy....
You mean for coins you're saving in your collection right? If it's not good enough to go in a 2x2, I use the tubes. They're cheap, and sure,...
Well how's that for a good first time. Congrats man.
