Yeah, I forgot adhesive. It could be from tape or something. That being said, the pattern really does look just like an end-roll or Mint set coin.
They just keep them around for a few years. Recently, they just had a big sale of material going back quite a few years. The Mint has a long...
This coin appears to have value just as scrap silver. It is toned, but it was well worn before it was put in that album.
I disagree. I think it's probably mint-state. It looks to me like it has end-of-roll toning or, less likely, toning from an original mint set...
It depends on the year.
Finally! I have really liked so few of the state quarters. This one is nice.
Hontonai: I know you're a "registered contrarian", but you seem especially cynical tonight. Any particular reason?
That's my feeling too. If it's for myself I would just as soon take it out. If I'm keeping it for potential sale, I've found that buyers are...
That's true. They won't charge you until the stuff ships. I usually get charged after I've already received the material.
Yeah, right.
I agree. Melt value has absolutely no relationship to price anymore. I do see silver for sale, but 12-13x is the norm. I sold some for fair melt...
eBay has definitely sunk their own ship with respect to coins.
You know, for as many years as I've been in numismatics (ahem), one of the few coins I've never owned has been a trade dollar. I'm sure I'll get...
I'd love to meet you guys, but I'm not driving 1,000 miles to do it. Not that I wouldn't, but the wife would be displeased.
When I get large silver-dollar sized coins that I want to keep, I just put them in 2x2 holders. Some people find these hard to use, and I know...
Now I'm tempted to bid to drive the price up. Thanks a lot.
As far as I'm concerned, there is no such thing as a bag of unsearched silver online. That's not to say someone can't make a mistake and sell key...
You might be able to get slightly more than face value for them. If you sold them on eBay, I don't think you'd get enough over face to cover the...
I recommend you pick up a copy of the Cherrypicker's guide. My version at least (Volume 1, 4th edition) has an excellent explanation of all types...
If you're asking if coin sales are slowing down, I would say that statement (in general) is true. Most sectors of the coin market are seeing some...
