Condition rarity vs numeric rarity by Scurvy Dog
I was perusing a recent issue of Coin World and one of the ads struck me. An early 50s Franklin half MS65 FBL sold for over $20K - about the same price as a late 1790s dollar in VF. I don't think the Franklin has as much upside as the dollar. Frankly I don't believe ANY Franklin half is worth that...

Anybody here keen on collecting Nat'l Park Quarters? by george pearl
I am I hear that the quarters will officially be released on 04/20/10 in the millions. It's my goal to go to banks and buy $500 boxes of quarters and only save the supergrade examples. One coin dealer told me I'm wasting my time.

Grand Canyon depicted on side of a coin by Frank Galikanokus
Putting the Grand Canyon on the back of a U.S. quarter is like painting a replica of da Vinci’s Last Supper on the head of a pin. But such a feat is being attempted by the United States Mint. http://tinyurl.com/yjxejew JAM

Snowy RCC? by Bruce Remick
Are most of you folks out there snowed in easterners? Not much RCC action this weekend. If you're like me, you spent part of the day shoveling and the other part recuperating. 24+ inches on my 50' driveway in the N. Virginia suburbs. I'll tackle the sidewalk tomorrow. No snow plow yet....

Has the sale of coins pretty well stopped? by Bob-tx
I haven't see many FA or FS posts for some time. I was wondering if the economic situation has pretty well made buying and selling of coins a luxury that most can not afford right now. If so, seems like it would be a good time for those that can afford it to be buying at a reduced price. ...

This is not a software/computer group by Watch Silvertown
I'm appalled at the number of off-topic posts now in RCC concerning computers and software, not to mention the illicit trading of copyrighted software. Don't you idiots know that is a crime? Didn't they teach you that in school? You idiots probably never went to school. Only I, Peruse Silvertown,...

PING: Pencil-necked geeks needed by Mr. Jaggers
