Amusing thread. Thanks for resurrecting it, Treashunt!
I have no expertise whatsoever regarding paper. But the 1963A is pretty cool. When I was a kid, in the late-1960's/early-1970's, 1963A ones were...
That's a beauty, AcesKings! I've been a WL collector since I was 13 years-old. That's a very long time. I believe that I see some doubling in the...
Hi jrs. I just realized that this forum does not allow DM's. I saw your WTS post on your Morgans. Nice pieces. Just wanted to let you know that...
Own these for only $3 apiece. Beats the heck out of $25 each:...
When I hear "DDO", this is what I think of. Or what I generally see without glasses. Back in 1973, my buddies and I sifted through countless bank...
Works for me, Kurt. Folks paying $25 for clad quarters means fewer people to bid up prices on silver. Everybody wins. Clad lovers get their MS...
I wear glasses to correct a double-vision problem. But even with my glasses off, I'm not seeing the DDO. Then again, I do not profess to be an...
I did not know that there were any of those still in existence. If you decide to sell it, I'd like first dibs, please. I'll pay whatever you're...
You learn something new every day. I guess I'll have to stand corrected... A PCGS MS64 CLAD 1983 Washington Quarter selling for $25.00:...
Sorry, Paddy. I was being sarcastic. It was just PCGS's use of the word "questionable" that I found...well, questionable. Certainly no offense meant.
You're cladking and I'm cool with that. Different strokes for different folks. Personally, except in pocket change, I have never touched clad...
Interesting thread. This is what has always bothered me about third-party grading and the value that is added to PCGS and NGC-graded coins solely...
What's "questionable"? It looks colored to me.
With slightly over 800 million minted, that would put the value at somewhere around 25 cents.
My dad worked at a bank back in the 1970's. He used to bring wheat cents home for me. Some days, he would have only a few. Every once in a while,...
Agreed. As the old expression says, "Buy the coin, not the grade." As I alluded to earlier, beauty is definitely in the eye of the beholder....
Thanks, Insider. I guess that that would make sense since the composition among silver coins is the same. It didn't take me long to find one on...
I was hoping that one (or more) of the experts on this forum could explain to me why, more than any other series of US coin, Franklin half dollars...
And to think, we used to do this (determine coin values) before we had the Internet.
