I'd go with a 16-d mercury dime myself. Seems it's out=performed most key date issues the past 10 years. Get it while you can is my suggestion. Guy~
I've never paid more than $8 per coin. Find a reputable dealer near you who is a member of a grading company of your choosing and they'll usually...
I like NGC only because I like their slabs better. Then again, I'm not really a big slab lover. Guy~
I think for the most part, people who collect seriously have more disposable income and better financial stability than most people, and these...
I getcha, Krispy, and agree. And no, but I certainly wish that coin was mine. Guy~
I understand what you're trying to say, Krispy, but I still have to disagree. The coin pictured below is but one example, graded By NGC with a...
So the many groups who focus on elongated coins, groups that belong to the ANA among others, are collecting coins that have no collector value?...
LOL! Maybe if he moved the decimal point over a few spots to say $$18.23 he might be closer to reality. I feel bad for this guys on the way kid! Guy~
Actually there is numismatic value. There are a lot of people who collect these now and they aren't so easy to find and assemble sets of. You...
It depends on the mode of shipping transportation. Say it left one location via truck and headed to another where it was loaded onto a container...
Go for it, but you'll soon learn a valuable lesson in the process. Never buy when something is hot. If it really is, which I haven't seen here,...
Yeah, I like the first one....throw a little laundry detergent on the key diagnostic areas and call it fine. Guy~
Hmm, I've never had a single instance where I had trouble spending Canadian coinage, from cents to dollars. Maybe because we get so many Canadians...
Well, I'll go the other direction. As a lot, $18 is a great bargain. True, all the coins individually might not add up to quite that much, but if...
Wasn't during the gold rush but rather the silver rush of Virginia City. Gold Hill is about a mile south of VC. Other than that I don't know...
I think we need to get together and start counterfeiting Chinese coins of the modern era (illegal in China) and saturate their economy with them....
That would seem reasonable, until you consider the people getting these graded aren't paying $14 a coin for grading. Or even half that price. They...
Don't know. Maybe it's regional because I don't see that happening here. Personally, I'd never buy an item while it's "hot" as you're more likely...
I had every intention of making that show. But work had other ideas. My friend worked his shop's table there all weekend and had about the same...
I'd take the first one. I like the contrasts in toning between the gold on the high points and the grey/blue of the fields. The second coin is...
