I'm just wondering why US Mint sells the proof version of Gold coin to the public (which you can order directly from their web site) but only sells the uncirculated version to the dealers (which you have to buy from dealers)? Emica

This guy comes into the shop today with the coin below that he just won on eBay. Asks me my opinion. I tell him that I believe it is a counterfeit. He thinks it is real and wants me to send it to PCGS for a cross over, minimum MS62. I asked this guy why on earth would a seller put it in a "self...

Hi I've had some of these before and eBayed them (you can usually get close to double face for them).. but this one I'm going to keep. If you find yourself in Las Vegas, go to the main cage at Caesars Palace and you can buy pads of fifty crisp uncirculated sequentially-numbered notes in every...

Here's a professor at Wake Forest University who thinks that eliminating the penny is a good thing and will also encourage dollar coin use. http://www.wfu.edu/wfunews/2006/2006.07.18.w.html His reasoning for increased dollar coin use is that some cash registers have only four slots for...

Possible? probably not. Can you just see the reaction of the media, and the rush to get in line. :-) Joe Fischer Darn, I missed a good April Fools joke.

Wow what a cool coin! I've always liked the 8 Reale and this is a very nice example with attractive toning and a little luster still present. I'm not very knowledgeable on grading these but I figure this one probably grades in the F-VF range. Check the pics to access the grade for...

I was finally able to get eBay to accept my HTML grin, so I started 5 of my 6 Panama sets with the big 20 Balboa coin. I'll list the 1978 set, once I find it. I took it in to work for lunch show-and-tell awhile back, and I'm not sure where I put it when I brought it back. I'll find it and...

I found notice of this "by accident". Didn't see anyone else mention it, so I thought I might spread the word. I just listed some junk DVD's to test it, and yes, 20 cents. Hmmm. Not sure if this covers any of the fancier options. Hopefully I can find the time to take advantage of this and...

Even the mainstream media is realizing continuing making the penny makes no sense. Here's an editorial from USA Today from July 11. http://www.usatoday.com/news/opinion/editorials/2006-07-11-penny-edit_x. htm The editorial also has a real-life repudiation of the "rounding to the nearest...

Great strike, unusual gold toned Type 1 trime. If you didn't look closely, you'd think that it was a gold dollar. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=019&item=290008462834 I haven't had much luck getting decent prices lately, so this will probably be my last try with eBay for some...

NEW EBAY FEES HIKE: here are the emails of the executive team, let them know what you think Hi, We are Power Sellers who are just fed up with the hikes in EBay fees. Thank God Google Base is up and Google Checkout, we already registered in both. Once they pick up we are off Ebay. Personally we...

http://invisibleairplane.com/cents/bad1.jpg Had trouble with this with different file name, hope it works ok now. I made a little improvement in focus, now I need to try for a dust free image. This nicked die is surely a variety, even if not planned that way, if a hundred...

I have ending on Thursday 7/20 several groups of silver coins with no reserves. I have a lot of silver quarters with ones from 1930's-1964, 1 lot of roosevelt dimes, and 4 lots of mercury dimes. They are varying conditions. If interested just look under my seller ID of marks_toys.

I made a small purchase at the 99c store the other day, and paid the $4.28 that I owed with five golden dollars. In my change, I received a half-dollar for the first time in oh-so-long. I wonder whether they did that on purpose. -- Stefano
