When I was younger and bored, (combination of dirt cheap silver and no one caring about Roosevelts as well), I used to buy a tube of Roosevelts...
Be careful, it can be fun and depressing. Once I was putting away a nice pillar dollar, because I thought "hey, I always wanted to own a nice...
Btw, are you like me and leave around bags and boxes of coins lying around? That is what I do when no stuff coming in, dig around stuff I bought...
I hear you sir. I went a couple of months without something coming in, (wife has mother here and spending money like its hot), so I passed on some...

I agree. One, photos can only do so much. Second, because so many non-errors and fake coins get posted, people get leery of posting something...

Well, now you have intervened another party. If it is stabbed, the stabbing company is warrantying that its not tampered with. In that case of...

Just got a wild hair, but looking for a couple of bags, (1000 per bag), of buffalo's. Full date or at least partial dates, no restored dates....
