I paid $750 at a Baltimore coin show for the first piece I posted with Janis on the obverse. I paid a total of $408 for the second one, including...
The Panic of 1837 began soon after President Martin Van Buren took the Oath of Office on March 4, 1837. It would last until 1842 and could...
The “PQ” sticker might be a dealer creation. I used to put hand written ones on coins that I thought were nice for grade when I was a dealer.
It's an 1864 large motto two cent piece. The sharpness grade is Good, but it has been cleaned. The Grey Sheet price is $15 with a narrow range of...
That appears to be a really nice example for the 1926. A picture of the coin without all of the slab detail would be better. The 1926 is one of...
Here are the two pieces in my collection. [ATTACH] This quadrigatus-didrachm was issued toward the end of the Greek coin inspired, didrachm...

I have not used coin albums in the conventional sense for U.S. coins for many decades. I use Eagle brand albums for my political items collection...
I think that it has been crushed in some way. The design devices seem to have been flattened by something other than normal wear.
Sorry, but not really in this condition. The 1912-D nickel begins to become a better date in VF and better. The pieces in Good sell for common...
PCGS Coin Facts says the retail value of the 1855 $10 gold in EF-40 is $1,600. You did okay because today’s PCGS EF-40 might not be as good. I...
I have a PCGS MS-63 for a type coin. I would love to get a Proof, but the prices have been too high. I sold a really nice Proof when I was a...
Copper is the most reactive of the three classic coinage metals. It can take on many shades. The early large cent expert, Dr. William Sheldon,...
