I am a fairly new collector and I'm considering buying an 1804 Half-Cent that says "Breen-10" on the slab. What does this mean? Thanks.

I've done a couple of google searches, and found conflicting information. What do the newsgroup readers think? Are German WWII silver 5 and 2 mark coins valuable as collectibles? Meaning, will their value go up, or do you feel there are too many of them in good condition, and they'll be...

Up now on eBay, the last of the Green-Label PCGS dollars from that big collection I bought. Buyers have been thrilled..I had a couple comments to the effect of "wow, they undergraded this by TWO grades!!" This group is as nice as the previous ones. Here's the link..thanks for...

about a month ago, a customer brought me his 1806 25c PCGS EF-45. He felt it was worthy of resubmission for a possible upgrade. Due to PCGS's conservative stance of late I thought he would be wasting his money. Here's his coin: http://members.aol.com/iras4/1806PCGS45.jpg I found a PCGS AU-50 1806...
