76 Kennedy error coin by
docfl
I found this Kennedy in a mint set in the discount bin at a local shop.
I think this may be my first error coin I found. Looks like something
fell on the die when the obverse was struck. Where it says indepndance
hall has missing letters.

Anyone into Currency? (FA) or...What Walked into MY shop last week... by
LRC-Tom
My stories aren't nearly as spectacular as Wes's...haven't had any 93-S
Morgans walk in yet, but now and then I'll have a story to tell. A
lady called me and said her father, aged 96, had some coins he thought
he might want to let go of, since nobody else in the family had any
interest.
So I...

It was love at first sight! by
Amistad
Howdy, friends!
I went to a local coin show yesterday and bought a few common items. I was
about to leave, but then decided to make "one last round" before heading for
the door. I'm sure glad that I did. I don't really collect foreign coins,
though I have a few of them from here and there. ...

Using the private bidder on Ebay by
[email protected]
How do people feel when a seller uses the private bidder feature on ebay
to offer some privacy to their buyers?
I did it for the first time this week on a SAE Silver Set.
I know, I am not crazy about people seeing who I am when I bid something
or what I am adding to my collection.

US Mint order question by
Wm Hopkins
I have 2 orders pending both of which say "Order Status: Your order request
is in process" and "In stock and reserved." Are these orders OK or do I need
to make a phone call? I don't remember seeing the "in process" part before.
Thanks,
Bill

1982 shinny cent what is it worth? by
Barney
Is this worth anything? My boss found it and I told him it was simply a
coin that was coated or painted over with a shinny brass/golden color.
I thought I would take an image of it and share to see what others think.
I have it posted at alt.binaries.pictures.numismatic under "1982 shinny...

Today in Change, a 1941 Lincoln by
Bob and Dee
Along with the artery clogging food I got at McDonald's today, my change included a 1941 Lincoln Cent. Compare that to when I was a kid collecting pennies it would have been like finding a 1909 in pocket change.
It won't fund my retirement, but if I keep eating at McDonald's, I won't live long...

With SF Proof Silvers Shipping by
[email protected]
Maybe the Legacy Sets won't be far behind
I wonder if the 20th anniversary sets sucked dealer investment $$ low
enough that the distribution on these was more widespread
if so, they might do what the Silver and Gold Sets have done
anyone see any interest in the silver/gold set?

corrosion pits happening suddenly on uncirculated large silver coins by
Gary
I have been finding that some of my uncirculated world crowns develop
sudden corrosion pits and I don't know the cause or what to do to stop
further damge. These pits are definitely into the coin surface, not
just spots or toning on the surface. The coins are stored in non-PVC
safe-T flips, once...
