When I was a kid back in the 1960's, there were coins in circulation that were dated all the way back to 1909. In fact, if you had the money, you could go to the bank and get silver dollars dated all the way back to 1878. What exactly happened to our money? I've heard all of the excuses, but none...

Does anyone besides me find it a little troubling that the mint has had in their posession 10 1933 double eagles for almost a year without anyone knowing about it. Even more troubling is that they are refusing to return the coins to the family that has held them for so many years. Big...

Hey all, Just got a new digital camera. It's a Canon A560. It's not the greatest but,I've heard good things about it.It's what I could afford. I'm hoping it's good enough for coin pics. So, I know almost nothing about photography. Could some give me some pointers on settings you use, such as...

Hi all, Is it my imagination, or do coins in ANACS holders tend to tone gold around the rims? -- Mike

I would like to start investing in precious metals, but I'm not sure where to start. I know nothing about coin collecting and don't really want to get into speculating future value based on collectibility - nor do I want to start purchasing older coins for their collectable value. So should I...

hello all Just wondering has anyne a BIG preference as to whether ti use ICG or ANACS as a newcomer to having coins graded. The reason I pick these two is both accept coins direct with much formality and are reasonably price wise ie $10 to $15 if you do not need express return. I notice of all...

I saw the image you posted on 11/7/2003 in abpn under the subject line of Digital Proof pics. Excellent image! Was it made with a digital camera? I've been having trouble getting good images of silver, and even some CuNi coins on my flatbed scanner. Less reflective coins come out fine, but the...
