In another thread (http://www.cointalk.com/t120400/) I tell the story of a special cent album I put together in a blank Dansco album. Well, I...
I'm tempted to put up a "guess the grade" thread, but I'll avoid the suspense... There aren't many slabs in this condition... instead of a Top-Pop...
I mentioned this album when some of us were talking about "subsets." This custom set is all the Copper LMCs in a blank Dansco. I'm using the...
I "saw" this coin at the local shop, was interested enough to buy it. I particularly liked how the sculptor made the edge design snake back and...
Ok, long story, lot of photos. Among granddad's collection I found a ratty old Whitman Jefferson album 1938-1964 that was complete. This was...
The title says, "full date & full horn," but the description honestly admits: "The entire coin, both obverse and reverse, was expertly restored...
This 1984 nickel has what I would call "mushrooming" on the lettering around the rim. The rim is distinct, but the coin certainly shows some...
from a website I frequent: http://mentalfloss.com/quiz/quiz.php?q=82 I got 19 out of 20 (and realized my mistake, but didn't want to go back far...
I'm happy with my coin store purchase today... went looking for a war nickel, but they were priced higher than I expected. This was one of the...
I am responsible for imprisoning one of the few remaining 1909 S-VDB in the wild. This puppy has been a raw coin for over 100 years, but now...
So we were at the dealer's last weekend and lamented the bills that spent decades in PVC holders in plain 3-ring school binders. The bills look...
Okay, so the 1909-S VDB was fake... the 1916-D was fake... now the crossover! It looks like a dime, it's worth a penny! The 1943-S BU cent...
So I pulled out an 1832 Half Penny (didn't know it at the time) that had been stored in a 2x2 in a pvc pocket in a binder in a box in a safe for...
Found a half dozen of these coins today. My guidebook says there were 200,000 minted, and 100,000 of those destroyed to make the 1968 Olympic...
If you're bored with my thread from last night about great-granddad's 1909-S VDB, then here are pics of what I found next to it: a 1916-D Mercury...
Discovery! 1909-S VDB New pics Okay, my pics are bad, so I didn't reduce them at all so you can see some detail if you enlarge them. Going...
So I've got a willing buyer, but I just don't know the value on these coins. They are common date Morgans in brilliant condition, with nice...
[IMG] Found this pretty coin sorting through the stash of Morgans tonight. Verry attractive, in my opinion. Had to post photos to brag.
Odd shine on a Morgan - updated with pics I'll post pics if necessary, but maybe you guys can tell from the description: I'm sorting through...
Yikes, can you guys spare some advice here? I'm helping a family member liquidate a collection that she inherited a couple of decades ago. Right...
