My "Cheap Slab" Story by Michael Benveniste[_2_]
I'm now the proud owner of a 1967 10 Lirot Israeli Victory coin in an NGC MS67 slab. Woo hoo! Could it make the condition census? Not only did I spend the slabbing fee for a piece that's worth little more than its bullion value of $15.20, but I paid an NCS conservation fee as well. Why? For...

PING: oly by Mr. Jaggers
A dealer friend and I were discussing the later coins of Scotland, and we were both unable to account for the ratio of the Scottish shilling to the British shilling, which seems to have been in the neighborhood of 24 to 1. So, can you verify that to have been the exchange rate in the 1600s, and...

New US Mint Laser Frosting... by MKW
is it just me or does the new laser frosting technique look kinda wierd? What happened to doing it the old way with a polisher and masking tape to mask out areas for blasting? The Boy Scout design looks particularly bad with the laser frosting.

Liberty nickels? by thermo102
First, I'm not a collector and don't think I want to get into it at this time. That said, I was recently given some coins which I believe were 'randomly' kept by some of my in-laws. (now deceased) The nickels caught my attention because I had never seen one before! The dates a 1906, 1911,...

Happened again today at a thrift store. Bill was $4.95 so I hand over 2, $2's and 2 halves. The halves go under the till and the cashier hands me $1.05 in change. I explain those were half dollars so she lifts the till, looks them over and I hand back the $1. Then she takes the halves and...

US Mint come through by Scurvy Dog[_2_]
I rec'd my War Vets and Boy Scout BU dollars within 10 days of ordering them. Both appear to be MS70, since I can't seem to spot a single flaw on them under 10X magnifcation. Well done, US Mint.

My latest coin acquisition by Mr. Jaggers
The Connecticut state coppers were dated 1785 through 1788, and comprise pieces made from well over three hundred die pairs.
