Wow! So the OP is denying the obvious? And still thinks it's worth a lot of money? Hopefully the OP will send the coin in to get graded and...
Great article!
IMHO I consider myself a collector, having varied collections & learning the history associated with each. However, since I do not have the time...
I apologize for the "nutty reverse" remark, didn't realize it was for important women, thought it might be another innovation type reverse already...
I agree, as of this date the Washington Crossing the Delaware may be the only issue, since supposedly the U.S. Mint is planning a nutty new...
Personally, I think the Canadian Mint missed a golden opportunity that I'm sure the U.S. Mint will not. If and when the lincoln cent will stop...

Someone went to a lot of trouble to assemble this proof set. Apparently 1868 has some type of sentimental meaning for the owner. The birth of a...
Every single coin I sell gets shipped the next business day. I package up the item and go directly to the post office. That way there is...
