When I try to go to the for sale I get the following message. (You have insufficient privileges to reply here.) I assumed that I had not yet...
I check it out occasionally, but apparently have not yet met the criteria for access. When I get there, I may buy a few things.
I'd go with Type 1 for coin 2. If you draw a line through the "S" to make a dollar sign, the highest point on the mint mark is to the left of the...
Yes
I wouldn't be too concerned with opening proof sets, especially the early 70s stuff. It is quite likely that you won't even be the first person...
It seems that the idea of restoring older designs gets a lot of resistance. While resurrecting the exact same designs may not be a good idea, I...
I like Franklins because I like collecting varieties. The Franklin series has high enough mintages that there is no real stopper, but die life...
62K. That's crazy. Why pay XF money for a coin that is G at best.:eek:
I appreciate you all taking the time to advise me. I hadn't even thought about postage. What is a typical postage cost from Europe to the US?...
I am an E-bay virgin, but am looking at using it for coin purchases. I have recently started working seriously on a non-American set, Germany...
My suggestion to issue missing dates went nowhere (other thread). So I have another idea:). How about if they issue a series of ASE reverses...
Wow! I thought the idea was quite clever and an alternative to the endless string of commemoratives, but looks like I struck a nerve. As far as...
Didn't want to hi-jack another thread, but the idea of the mint re-issuing classic designs came up recently. The possibility of driving down the...
A quick question on clips. In trying to determine if a clip is real, would it be reasonable to assume that the clipped area should match up with...
I disagree with the 2009 coins gaining key status, they'll probably end up like the 1883 no cents or 50D nickels. The reason you never see them...
I put in one mint order each year for the same thing - 2 mint sets, 2 proof sets and 2 silver proof sets. One of each set to crack open to put...
Definitely neat, and one I always for. Good eye. But the strongest DDO? There is one from 1942 that many would argue is stronger;)
OK, thanks.
I came across a 1936 cent that has the characteristics that I use when searching for varieties from that era. I am pretty sure it is a ddo, but I...
<snip Perhaps you Lincoln variety experts can clear up some of my confusion. The writer of the article uses this image to illustrate the...
