Hello to all, I have just received my third and final swap! A real neat package of goodies arrived from Steve in North Carolina. I had a great time digging into the box of surprises. Thanks Steve. Happy collecting! Paul

I have an option to buy a bag of 500 uncirculated 1967 UK pennies for roughly 10 cents each delivered (in the U.S.). I realize these coins are common as dirt - at least in the UK - but it's still quite expensive to ship this kind of thing across the pond. Can anyone show me a better price for...

Hello all. I've been away, busy with stuff unrelated to coins. However, I've been asked about the 2006 First Strike Proof Buffalo, so I'm going to see if I can get some answers here. So my brother-in-law wants to know if PCGS and NGC has already certified all the First Strikes, or have they...

I've been away for a while, and I'm trying to come back up to speed on things. I'm looking to sell most of my state quarter BU rolls, and I'm been monitoring ebay for typical selling prices of rolls from the first 3 years. It looks like they are bringing only a little more than face, even...

While I was in one of my favorite coin shops yesterday the proprietor handed me a Baggie full of scruffy old copper coins from all over the world. The only U.S. coin was a large cent worn almost slick. It happened, though, to have enough meat left to show a die crack through the forelock,...

I don't know why we get such material as this in a group dedicated to the enjoyment of numismatics. Indeed there are some twisted minds out there... Amistad 'your killfile is your friend!'

Is this outfit a rip-off?

I have seen several interesting items posted to the group which i have enjoyed. I had to stare at this one quite a while and i still couldnt believe it. I am amazed that a company would slab a coin so carelessly. I have contacted the seller via an ebay note. Jorge

I have duplicate state quarters rolls I am willing to trade.

Hi everybody, Wow! I had great luck cherrypickin' today. I picked up this beauty and have just listed it on ebay. I don't pay a premium for varieties so I can start 'um low with no reserve. Opens at $29.00. Check it out...

Hi Everyone, I just received my swap from Larry in Texas. Great coins! I have to confess to all that I felt like a kid on Christmas morning when I got home from work this evening! My wife just shook her head when she saw my excitement over a little cardboard box that came in the mail. ...

Yesterday I received a 1989 half dollar in change at a CVS store in Northern Virginia. I can't remember the last time I got one in change from a purchase. I did get a few at a race track a few years ago as as payoff on small bets. But that wasn't really in change for a purchase.

A really cool coin if you're into this type of material. For some reason my photos aren't as good as usual. The coin looks better in hand. Anyway, check it out. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=003&item=130014796646&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&rd=1 Thanks, Cliff Lawless

From Bri who, unknownst to me, must have viewed the holes in my collection and handpicked the finest of coins to fill them: A NGC MS66 RD 1958D wheatie and a NGC MS65 1943 steelie, both begging to be cracked out. Methinks they will stay where they are. A BU 43P Jefferson and a PL 1965 SMS...

Don't know how you got the FDC's to me that quick, but thanks. If you run into the inverted Jenny one of that series, I'll go five so you know. -- dw BTW- Loved the wrapping of the box... I've got to remember that one.

Thank you Paul C. for all the neat State Quarters, and all the neat wheat cents. TY again, hope you enjoyed your swap(s) as well. -- dw
