No, I haven’t! Great, thanks!
I stumbled across this thread, and I stumbled across this Lincoln in my wheat searching today... It’s not a spectacular specimen, but I could use...
Happy Sunday! I was going through some wheat cents today because sometimes it’s just fun to hunt! I came across this penny which, looks to me,...
Hey there! Thanks for the welcome :)
B. E. A. Utiful Morgans. Drooling over here....
Nice find!
Makes sense, thanks! The one I bought was a 2012-W slabbed by NGC as MS70 for which I paid $36.

Thanks man, I’ll be sticking around. I’ve been collecting on and off since I was a kid in the 80s. I now inherited my grandfathers’ collections,...
Ok, another quick one. This is not a coin I own, it’s on a site I happened across. They have this Morgan slabbed as MS66 but I’m thinking not that...
Thanks, I’ve learned a lot just in the last hour or so, lol. It I still have miles to go before I sleep... I take it Paddy54 and eddiespin are a...
Will search for it, thanks!
Thank you, that clears up a lot. I was getting hung up on “literal” terms instead of focusing on them as descriptive terms.
Ok, thanks, that makes more sense. I’ve tried to read different sources on the internet and the info is conflicting. A circulated coin can’t be...
