    D'you mean "throw"? image


    I own a few.


    I might as well throw away the sheet 'cause I'll never be able to sell 'em without takin' a loss. image

    I have a few. One cost me about three times the going rate, but it has the look of a coin worth five times what I paid. No regrets here!

    Agreed, and since the OP asked for images here is one of my favorites. Large sized capped bust quarters are tougher to find then
    the capped bust halves, in original and un-boinked with condition. This piece is in an NGC (yes I said NGCimage) holder graded AU-58.
    And cost me more than MS-60 money to own it. Has nice luster, and I believe is graded accurately. So, I didn't really throw away the "Sheet"
    but I couldn't have owned it for sheet price.

    Most of the value in my collection is in early U.S. coins in grading ranging from VF to MS-60. You can't buy any of this stuff for the sheet when it is properly graded. Even if the grade is just "a little wrong" the sheet won't cut it. You have to a total misgrade to buy these coins at sheet. You don't see a lot of those, but I have seen a few.

    I have a few. The trick is to know *when* to throw away the sheets image

    Many toned brown proof indian cents go for well above sheet. I have quite a few in that category.

    Most of mine are "Keep the sheet.......throw away the coin"

    i do not own any coins where i threw away the sheet.

    matter of fact, i try to buy them around wholesale.

    i guess half eagles need a D, C, O, or CC mint mark to get more than one bid.

    I own NONE. Type coins in the 1820-1916 era tend to be fairly close to the sheets. Registry mania has not come here yet.

    Even with outrageous color type coins may only bring 30-50% premiums at best. But all in all, they trade fairly close to what the sheet says. On the sheet number for ok quality, 10-20% over for solid quality, and maybe 20-30% over for killer quality. If you are paying 30-50% over for MS/PF63-MS/PF67 material, there's a good chance you're paying too much. These aren't toner Morgans.

    Hundreds, but mainly because much of the material I collect isn't ON the sheets.
