Re: 1979 Type 2 Proof Sets questions

Some scammers have used that to their advantage calling any set that had at least some type 2 coins in it a type 2 set and then pricing them at the graysheet type 2 set level. -
Collecting Liberty Eagles ($10) - Type 2 or 3?
I notice that PCGS has 2 different sets listed in their Registry - Circulation Strikes (1838-1907) & Circulation Strikes (1866-1907). Questions: 1. Is this purely because Type 2 coins are harder to locate? 2. Can you think why they didn't create the set "Circulation Strikes (1838-1865)" i.e. just Type 2. I wonder if David… -
1920 Lincoln toner - Market acceptable?
I don't submit toners very often so this is out of my realm. But I recently bought this neon toner because I loved it's color! Will PCGS grade a Lincoln this color? I don't mind keeping it in a 2 x 2 by any means. Thoughts? -
Re: 1823/2 Bust Quarters

The 27/3/2 Originals and "Essays" do not show any die rust at all. The 27/3/2 Restrikes have a ton of die rust, but not the same as on the 23/2. Clearly, die rust was removed in 1827, some… -

Re: What could I buy in 1853 with my 1/2 cent?
<< <i>fc April 09, 2009 << By 1853 the 1/2 Cent couldn't buy anything, but the copper content alone was worth more than the face value. It was about this time that discussions of a serious nature began about the discontinuance of this denomination. >> it might not have bought anything but when you price something at 12 1/2… -
1 or 2 ???
A recent poll asked which coin you'd keep forever. I posted #2 Then I got to thinking if that really is the one. In all likelihood, I'll keep both til I'm extinct, but this is really a tossup. Both are about same price. Whatcha think? 1 or 2 ? :) 1 2
