Since I brought up the notion of buying complete sets I'll assume this in response to my comment. I don't know the odds - as stated in my post....
Sure looks like the mailman is taking them from all the information you provide. Best advice really is to use another address for valuable...
So I take it you're buying. :happy:
You can buy a full SMS set for about $10. That means you can buy 140 sets with $1400. If you sell off the non-cent coins individually and reinvest...
What does this have to do with anything? The OP was asking for everyone's opinion on whether silver Ike's should be included in PCGS circulation...
Not going to say anyone is wrong, but it's difficult to dispute that the US Mint describing them as uncirculated means they consider them in the...

That is a good question. However I think PCGS is considering silver Ikes as the same type of strike as clad circulated strikes. Regardless of...
I never understood why someone would collect these. How would anyone know it's a mint error and not someone clipping these in their garage?

I don't think it's necessarily a bad idea for someone who enjoys such a thing. It's basically documenting mintmark positions and possibly which...
Yes, you should slab it before you slab it, haha. I'm pretty sure you meant "sell it", but just poking some fun.
I'm not very experienced in paper money stuff, but I've noticed serious serial collectors mostly look for low, binary, repeater or radar numbers....
Yea, but how many dies were used? Does anyone know this? If not, then how could anyone possibly know when they've completed a set?
I don't know that it is stubbornness as much as it is just reaction to the market. When people are buying prices stay up. When people are not...
Hype and hoopla. Headlines will read silver at NEW LOW!, 12 MONTH LOW!, etc. There will be an initial rush to buy because of the drop in spot...
Spread will increase due to higher demand basically nullifying drop in spot price.
Most dealers save goodies for Saturday and Sunday also. They employ multi-stage goodying.
Maybe it came in contact with a corrosive substance. Like an acid.
