planchet voids and hits on the obverse, not uncommon for all varieties

that many Type...

More about Sacs by
kathy1945
Since I started my love affair with these beautiful coins, I decided
to ensure my future supply (none of the area banks order/receive them)
by arranging to order mine directly from the Mint. Their site allows
the option of roll or bag purchases, but - I couldn't believe my eyes
- they want $35 for...

Penny Controversy by
[email protected]
The debate over continuing mintage of cents continues.
Would eliminating the cent from coinage be such a bad thing?
The half-cent (1793-1857) has long gone the way of the dodo. In 1859
the cent was reduced dramatically in size.

Breen Encyclopedia Binding by
Mr. Jaggers
Anyone who owns a copy of the 1988 Breen Encyclopedia no doubt knows how
poorly it was bound, rather surprising and disappointing for a Doubleday
product. Essentially you have a paperback glued into a hard cover, and by
now the glue has started to dry out and pages are starting to come out...

It's easy to see who your friends are... by
K6AZ
When you list items for under face value, and some who jump on other
items don't think yours are worth face value.
Food for thought, and something to think about.
It did not go unnoticed.

FA: 1831 Bust Half PCGS AU-58 by
Ira
A great look with attractive album toning at rims, this coin is a
whisper of rub away from MS-63. If thruth be told, most MS-63s have a
trace of rub as well.
See it at:

Shipping Question by
S. W. Ohio Bob
I've just started selling some coins on eBay and have found out that coins
shipped to buyers are uninsurable according to UPS. I can see their point
that someone could claim a value of $5,000, claim a shipment got "lost" and
try to collect the declared value.

One of the positive things that people do here and in other online
