These are some of the better examples of the Romans I have. From what I've been able to read so far, it sounds like the others I have are just...
Thanks for the guide. I know that usually people don't recommend cleaning coins but Romans are the exception. I have some that look pretty good...
I have been trying to assemble a collection of the large British pennies (circa 1900 to 1967). I was trying to figure out what I still needed so I...
When I was young and ignorant I purchased a bunch of uncleaned Roman coins, not knowing what to expect. When I received them I didn't really know...
I don't know a lot about error coins, but I saw this eBay seller listing two Lincoln pennies while I was searching for large cents (why he has...
It seems like everyone and his brother is selling silver on eBay right now. I would never buy bulk silver on eBay because when I factor in the...

I've been selling other things than coins but I find most people leave me feedback, and I always leave feedback for them because I use it as a way...
I think you'd be collecting for your own satisfaction. You're not going to make any money on modern coins.

I sold some Roosevelt silver dimes last week when silver was in the $26 area and they were paying a little over 18 times face value. I can't say...
