Just picked up this high grade 1944 S 50 centavo. I think it ticks off the boxes for the newly discovered mule (if mule is the right word for...
I work estate sales, where "cash only" is prominently posted on our door, but a fair number of customers expect to be able to pay via CC on large...
Ah, but *what* 1886 Morgan? At the time, mintmark's were rarely even noticed by collectors. It could be a proof 1886 (p) or one of the semi-key...
Another reason might be that they need to go to a bank and get additional funds (but want to avoid 2 trips to the bank). I voted 4 hours, but...
This got bumped up on my feed recently due to some comment likes. Thought I'd bump it in the thread due to the excellent discussion about...

Dime sized, Edward VII effigy on obverse with no legend. Reverse reads "ONE / CENT / 1902". ~17mm diameter (dime sized) and either heavily...
Well, I certainly wasn't planning on crossing it over or anything. I think the grade is accurate. And I was able to buy it at an AU55 price point....
