The old catalog lists these at 50c except the last one is 35c and the first is $2. Usually 50c tokens are fairly scarce and can bring anywhere...
There were a lot of strange things going on in those days. It just wasn't unusual to see coins that appeared to be struck by proof reverse dies.
Almost all moderns have a few PL's made each year. They can be exceedingly scarce and some are not very PL. They are far more common in mint...
You might try finding the "common" Gems in the raw. About 2% of dates like the '76-D and the '77 and '78 issues can be found in the mint sets as...
Wow!! There are some really great coins there. The '84-D appears to be a type "d" so it's not from a mint set.
Ikes are great. I'd suggest you try to get only nice pristine examples that are well made with minimum marking. Usually the best place to look...
I collect these and like them all. My favorite are advertising. I keep them in 1 1/2 x 1 1/2 vinyl pages and disp[lay them by krewe....

Yes. Many millions of kids and young adults have or are collecting the states coins. Many are at the age where they drop hobbies n favor of the...
This is pretty much the way it's always been though in the distant past this was just the hobby of kings. Princes became the new generation of...
This is a question we needed to ask 15 years ago when many millions of children were running around collecting states coins. The answer then, as...
...And we all know how painful that can be. ;)
What's funny is that when I started collecting in 1957 a 50 year old coin was very rarely seen. There were a few Columbian half dollars and a...
First off coins are not produced in the trillions. It's only been in recent years that the combined total of all coins ever made on the face of...
