Well, I guess I tried to float a lead balloon on this one. I suppose my idea for a one year dime issue of 5 different types (Draped Bust, Capped...
I should have thought about about the cent and others. :) It was just a thought that it would be 'numismatically' interesting to see Washington's...
That's a great idea. You gotta love that view of the mountain when you are at the top of Rainier Avenue headed south- gorgeous.
I was browsing around the WA state website the other day and found out that design submisions for the state quarter end on 7/31. I was trying to...
This appears to be a PCGS slabbed coin.. If so, take a look at the online PCGS price guide and assume it's worth 1/2 to 2/3'rds of the price...
I couldn't find a picture either but found this: http://www.cfa.gov/meetings/archive/2004/sep/20040921_05.html And the obverse might be...
My guess (and it's a total guess) is that it's an internal treasury decision based on how many unit they intend to sell. Just a couple of months...
Thanks Ed! Any thoughts on the 2004/2005 mint set situation? I want to exercize your mind as well as your fingers. :)

Unlikely. When you look at the mintage figures for Ike's and consider that they were rarely used in commerce.......
I'd love to see the citations for the overgraded coins that lost. Any such info could likely be used in defense of this suit. Accusing ACG of...
That is problematic. I guess it's one more reason where a community effort to show the difference between ACG grading practices and actual grades...
The defense of this case will revolve around providing evidence that what the defendants are saying is actually true. Examples of ACG slabbed coin...
Keep them. There are markets for slabs regardless of the coin. And ultimately, what's more valuable than a mistake. oddity or original in the coin...
I'm still learning and think ANA standards are the model to follow. For some reason Photograde just doesn't do it for me. Maybe I've got some sort...
That binder must have been a lot of fun to look through. Coins are like a gateway to history and there's a lot to learn and enjoy. Each coin in...
Well there ya go, I was being presumptuous. You should see my family (ugly as sin) and my dog (uglier). :D I'm not much of a poster as I'm...
