I hope you're still with us somehow, in spite of the Verizon issue. I spent half the day with a longtime coin friend today, and he favored me with copies of materials he had received at an ANA seminar. Included in the package was a copy of a booklet titled "The Coins of Colonial America" which...

I realize this might be a stupid question. But does anyone have any idea on how I can get OBW rolls of the newer pennies? They are out there! However, every time I go to one of my local banks, I am told they are only getting "old" pennies. That they did not receive any of the new pennies in any...

I got a Guam quarter in change yesterday. Not sure from where, but most definitely from one of the 3 supermarkets I had just shopped at. If I had spotted it earlier I would have asked about any full rolls. I will scour the area (stores and banks) later today after work to see if I can score any...

Some recent medical set backs are going to force me to sell some coins. I'll be putting my SLQ collection up for sale. Most of the coins are AU to MS, though un-graded. I have excellent photos of them all. I'm wondering if its best to list these on ebay individually or as a...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vatican_euro_coins#Circulating_Mintage_quantities Vatican City euro coins minted for circulation are quite rare, per the above. Indeed, it seems like the best way to get Vatican City euro coins is to just buy a mint or a proof set. My question is... was it like this...

Just noticed today that the Army PX and commissary in my area are using these in change.
