Only around 100 for me, plus or minus a few. I collected as a kid, gave it up, and then came back to it less than two years ago. I've actually...
That clears up a mystery for me. About 6 months ago, I found a silver Washington in my register at work. And, oddly enough, it had red paint all...
Since you mentioned JJ Teaparty, I'd like to add my two cents and argue that they tend to overprice their lower-graded coins. I saw a '24 S...
Mik, I noticed that your '21 Merc. looks about as good as mine looks at the moment, i.e. hovering around Good. Luckily, my '31 D is in much better...
Thanks! I love how you can usually tell if there's silver just by that look. I think it's actually more on the AU end than XF, but either way,...
...tell me if a 1965 Austrian ("Osterreich Republik") 5 Schilling contains any silver, and if so, how much? I came across one today in XF/AU...
Ha, OK. My new stipulation is "free" as well as informative. The mag is the same that was used to price the proof, interestingly enough. Makes...
Hey all. I bought a few new coins for my type set the other day ('27 Peace dollar, '09 Indian Head cent, '49 S Roosevelt dime, and '58 Franklin...
Yeah, prob. wouldn't put too much stock in it. I've found a few 1919's in my roll searches. Still, it's great that you can find stuff like that...
I'll have to check out those new links!
Thanks for all the info. Luckily (or rather unluckily?), I don't have too many ancients to work with. Yet...
Just got back from the store... ...traded in some silver (a few dimes and a '64 Kennedy) in addition to a few Buffalo's (two bad dates and a...
I know you've posted about this before, but how do you put together your holders, esp. for your ancient stuff? I've ditched the cardboard 2x2's in...
Nah, any really common-date wheaties just get thrown into tubes, and when those are filled, they go into normal paper penny rolls. Still, when I...
I was at the local store the other day (picking up a nicely toned 1950 D Jefferson), and the dealer gave me my change (about 20 cents worth) all...
Anything new?
Def. rarity. I've been overhauling my type set to represent the lowest mintage coin of each type (and/or variety when necessary) in the best...
Haha...
Thanks. I had a feeling it was. To find a '43 S was great enough; to have it be a DDO would've killed me.
I'll look into that. I wasn't aware that H.C. had any such collection. I believe it will still be on display in the main library on-campus (the...
