After much consideration, we have decided to discontinue selling the Intercept Shield line of coin albums. All remaining Intercept Shield album inventory has been moved to the bargain basement section of our website and is listed at 50% off the MSRP. Quantites are limited to remaining inventory...

I've been meaning to hold a contest for some time... I'm not in a position to hold the kind of contest I would like to (since my 'start the year out right' lottery ticket only hit one number), but I thought I would throw together a small one to start the year. It's not much, but I pulled some of...

Many times I have been humbled by the generosity of the people who read and post here, but this just takes the cake. I haven't been on RCC for over a month, so imagine my surprise when packages started arriving on my doorstep today for my little angel...words fail me. Of all the acts of random...

I have a few surplus modern bi-metallic £2 commemorative issue's i.e. the 2001 Marconi (4), 2003 DNA Double Helix (4), and 1999 Rugby (3) all of which were found as `change'. Some don't look like they have circulated at all, while others are roughly EF (ish). They are on the point of being...

Greetings: Was listening to a local (Wash, DC) talk show host responding to the news that certain other talk show hosts are taking money from certain political parties in return for favorably commenting on said party's policies. He threatened to sell his services on Ebay (preferably to a certain...

From the Indiana, Pennsylvania evening Gazette, June 1, 1916 NEW COINS TO BE ISSUED SOON

I intended to post this a few days ago, when I first received my January, 2005 "Numismatist". From the section called "Numismatist news & notes", page 28, one paragraph from a short article on the 1894-S Barber dime; "In 1894 San Francisco Mint Superintendent John Daggett ordered only 24 dimes...

I'm curious - do the "Pure" collectors sell coins, or do they just buy them and keep them forever. If you don't sell, don't know how to sell, or can't sell, does that make one "Pure" also? Rgds Jan (Un-Pure collector since 1943)

Bill, here's the auction for you! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=536&item=3954764098&rd=1 James 'I'll have a large cherry-dipped cone'

This coin was given to me by Joe Garbarini on the WINS group. http://austriancoins.com/Auction/Columbus.jpg I have been a collector for a lot of years but guess what? This is the first Classical US Commemorative coin I have ever owned. I have often thought about collecting a few but never...

Is there a good reference that shows the 1974D Doubled Die Obverse? How pronounced is this and can you easily see it without a loop? Using a 10X loop I think I can see doubling. But I think that the mind is trying to trick my eyes. Just as an aside I picked up 21-40% silvers out of the last...

I was cleaning out a bunch of my late father's 'junk' a couple of days ago and came across a jar full of pennys. Nothing seemed special about them except one. I have pictures of it at http://jamestperry.home.comcast.net/Penny.htm . Is this a real penny or a prank? If it is real, is it worth...

First off, Hello to everyone, I'm a newbie here, and have spent the last couple of weeks reading posts, and digging through the archives. I rather new to coin collecting. I've always had an interest in older or unique coins I found in circulation.....ie, wheat pennies, steel pennies, a few mercury...

As I mentioned in my first post, buy a few SAEs got me interested in coins again. Doing a bit of research on these, I've noticed the prices for the BU issue 1996 are much higher than any other year? I'm sure this has to do with a lower mintage number correct? But I haven't found the "offcial"...
