The main thing to look for for 1981 dimes is one that looks like it just got fresh struck at the mint. To go along with this main thing, you...
Try taking the coin out of the flip for pix.
At MS63, almost all State quarters are currently listed at 12 times their face value. This is a fact, not wishful thinking. NGC, PCGS and many...
@Wendy avet …According to NGC Price Guide, which you can use to get “in the ballpark” as far as value goes, Indiana P&D State quarters are listing...
