Someday these might be appeciated but they aren't now. One thing is certain, the only ones available in high grade will be those from mint sets.
'57-D is a very unusual date to find so nice. There were only a few million set aside and most have been gone for many years. Usually you see...
Certainly the '82-P and '83-P are contenders. But many people assume these are tougher so won't be surprised. The '83-P is tough because most...
It's curious that people think the large mintages mean all the coins are common but in reality if there were a market for them there are barely...
How can a 1969 quarter not have a lot of history? Neil Armstrong might have set in in his locker before his flight to the moon. It might have...
I love all coins and have collected every single US series at one time or another except for the gold. I'd have collected the gold as well but...
I sure enjoy all my moderns and don't mind the large paper profits at all. But truth to tell the second best thing about the hobby for me is...
It's a much better token. It's catalog Ohio 835A White Metal 20mm S (stencil cut) and lists at 60c and was issued in 1953. Tokens like this...
Banks are allowed to change the conditions of an account after the fact. When you open an account you sign a contract and they can change that...
Coinstar machines do the same thing; remove coins from the count without crediting the customer. I suspect most banks that count coins do about...
As far as the proofs go the question isn't accurate. Yes, there are millions of proofs in circulation but most of these aren't "extras"...
There's more demand for business strikes than Proofs. It's true the demand for PL's isn't very strong but the demand for attractive business...
It's a proof. For most dates FS aren't very tough on proofs.
I've got a bicentennial "In God We Rust" quarter from circulation. It wasone of the first 1976 quarters I found back in the summer of 1975 when...
"Collectable" is in the eye of the beholder and "valuable" is a function of supply and demand but there's no doubt that some of these modern coins...
Some coins of the last 50 years had as few as about 3% of an issue come off the dies in MS-65 and most of these were then marked up at the mint...
Even if the dies were basined they are too eroded to really call the coin PL. But, I believe, that under the haze there may be very "flat" die...
It's a pretty nice coin really. MS-64 easy. It needs an alcohol soak. It's a little PL so I'd put it at about the 94th %ile. It might look...
Finding good mint sets to check is not easy. The trick is to get as close to the point of purchase as possible which means looking through dealer...
Relatively few dies were used for mint set coins. For halfs they'd get about 25,000/ 30,000 strikes so there were maybe 60 dies used. EDS lasts...
