The '67 wholesales for $4 in chBU and it's even scarcer in AU, XF, and VF so should be worth nearly as much. Nice '71-D @yakpoo
In the old days quarters could go into storage and sit for ten or twenty years. They could come out of storage and go straight back into storage...
I find it interesting that the mint is minting some half dollars for circulation again. If they're out of half dollars then they must surely be...
I gathered that from your article. I had no problem with his politics so much as his apparently late warning to beware the military industrial...
Nice write-up by the way. Well done. I liked Ike more as a forward thinker and for his ability to act than as a politician.
Eisenhower was not only a great man but a good one as well. There isn't much of this left in politics. I wasn't a fan of the Eisenhower dollar...
The best way to learn is to ask the questions but also to buy the folders and fill them with the best coins you can find. It will also make a...
Politicians need untraceable currency in order to take large bribes. folders of hundred dollar bills are great for little bribes but these guys...
I think the services would grade them 3412 and, in this case, I agree. MS-66/ MS-65/ MS-65/ MS-63+
When I find coins of the quality of this dime I try to trace them down to the bank that's issuing them and buy a bag or two (boxes). Sometimes...
Moderns are graded brutally. This dime is exceptional but as a rule if you have one that is exceptional there will be many more. I doubt the...
The production of nickels would have increased anyway. The reason that more nickels is needed has nothing at all to do with the lack of pennies....
The production of pennies is just a symptom and symbol of the rot that has engulfed us. Every time a penny is used it is counted twice and it's...
We're insane. It's more important a few men get rich than that we stop waste or exercise common sense. A few get rich as the penny is like the...
Hang onto the PL's. I used to just spend them when they were ugly but then I realized there were very and they were disappearing because people...
It's a type "d" reverse and only about 15% of Uncs are. I'd say MS-64 but it might have a little rub to make it a super slider.
My gut tells me it has a rub but if wrong then MS-64 looks right. It's a $3 coin with a rub and $10 without.
I do agree. Even back in 1978 it took a lot of shoe leather to chase down Gems in the mint sets. It's not only easier now but cheaper as well....
Let me say this another way. The largest group of '73 mint sets I was ever able to check at one time was at a dealer in Indianapolis who had...
Some coins aren't so bad, like the '73 Ike. 25% are damaged but 95% of the damaged ones can be saved. Other coins are awful. The '68 dime is...
