Nice!! A fine personal touch!
That would make me feel more comfortable too...but I'd still be looking for the attribution diagnostics. Just to be 100% sure...I'm extra...
Oh yes...collectors need to still do their due diligence. For certain there are counterfeit slabs out there as well. Plenty money in it...so...
I'll add my two cents on this: I read the same advice about buying key coins in the raw state. It can be a risky proposition. Unless you can...
Fun!
I hope things pick up for you. And a nice find!! Congratulations.
Inspector...I made the mistake once by mistake, but I lost another few trying to further optimize the revealed date. Those other mistakes were on...
Inspector! It's been fun watching your find-streak continuing and the other side events like this 1918 D!! It's giving me the itch to resume the...

A good day of finds. I’ve been in a drought for a bit. I was getting a few LWCs from my local Dunkin but now it’s a rare event these days....
Yes...it is interesting how the last few years, coinage for the year was late in emerging in circulation finds for me. I say this, but had I been...
I don't think/haven't seen any 2026 coinage just yet. Even the 2025 coinage has been sparse...at least for putting together a solid roll of...
Based on the braid, I think your guess is probably right. It’ll be fun to see what PCGS comes back with.
I thought you said your eyes aren’t powerful enough? Your successes here have been fun to follow! The other local CRH enthusiasts must be upset...
What you describe is common enough so it does take patience. Moderating for me was about engaging community and reducing tensions when they came...
Ok, the interesting trend is that most all cashiers are rounding up or down. It is a mystery when using cash. So, way fewer cents. Anyway, I...
