Jason Craton went on a vacation recently and while he was traveling the world he made a few elongated cents. He sent me copies as he knew I collected them ocassionally. A few nice examples from S Dakota :-) Thanks! They are nice! Go back a few weeks or months in...

Today, apparently for a dime, or maybe a nickle, and I am not sure where I got it, I got an Australian 5¢ coin in change. When I looked at it at first I noticed it looked like the Canadian 5¢ coin, but the reeded edge was what made it distinctive and got the thorough look over. First time I have...

Today while the clerk at the convenience store was counting out my change I heard a rather distinctive "clink" as the coins dropped into the palm of his hand. The telltale sound spoiled the surprise as he handed me the two dimes, the quarter and the Kennedy half that added up to the 95 cents I was...

Looks like a terrorist code.

6 - 1964 mixed mint, 7 - 40% silver. All AU-BU. First $20 + postage. John Baumgart

I've never seen an error coin, so I'm guessing they're rare. How do most collectors find them? (esp the off-color, off-center, or highly deformed ones) Do they just get tons of rolls from the bank and search through them, or what? If so, which banks should you go to and when should you go...

I just had a quick question about half dollars and $2 bills. I'm thinking of trying a part time cashier job to use these denominations to try to get them circulating a little bit. My question is, would halves cut the demand for quarters at all, and will $2 bills cut the demand for $1 bills at all?...

There was a recent announcement that sales of the First Flight commem coins have ended at 33% of maximum allowed (1.35 million). Was the entire authorized mintage of proof/unc gold eagles, dollars and halves produced, or were the coins essentially "minted to order"? If more were minted...

Is this cent what you would call "broadstruck?" It feel like it is slightly bowl-shaped. The reverse is also rotated about 5 degrees from what it should be. How many summer homes could I buy with this...

I found this webpage and thought some of you ancient, English and Commonwealth collectors might appreciate it. http://www.vosper4coins.co.uk/rev/imgshow/Latin%20Pronunciation%20for%20Numi smatists.htm If anyone knows of anymore sites similar I would love to know the links. Mame

Heritage has a fixed price list of coins and currency offered for sale from their recently closed auctions. I assume these are lots that did not meet the reserve price so they are now trying to sell them directly for the consignor?

I have the following for sale. This is the first group of my dad's collection, he has decided to sell off his Morgans. All prices include shipping and insurance. As always, if you don't like a coin you buy, you can return it for a full refund of the purchase price. These aren't the best images,...
