Howdy, friends! I recently met a fellow who is really (and I do mean REALLY) into metal detecting. I haven't yet seen them, but he tells me that he has found lots of coins, including one find of 19 Morgan dollars out in west Texas a couple years ago. (Now, THAT would be an exciting discovery,...

Leaving in about 5 weeks early in December for the above places. 3 or 4 days in Hong Kong and the rest of the time traveling around in India where my son and daughter-in-law and her family live, which is Pune. Now for the intent of this post: I would like to meet and trade common US coins and or...

A recent thread here that brought up the wikipedia, has inspired me to create a page that I felt it needed and was lacking. I'd like help with photos though, or if anyone has better ideas about formatting, descriptions, and so on. Please...

Can't believe it! I didn't expect to get these for another 2 months, but here the are! I was in Denver at the ANA when they went on sale and didn't want to get locked out so I ordered them online at the USMint booth at the show. Wonder if that had anything to do with getting it so quickly. Wonder...

Hi everyone, I had an interesting experience recently with identifying some coins. My friend Heidi, who knows I collect coins, said her (late) grandfather had brought back various old, maybe ancient, coins from his foreign travels and asked if I might be able to identify them. I said I would be...

I liked reading the replies to the thread about your lowest mintage coins, so I thought I'd start a similar one. What is the best coin you've found in circulation, including roll searches? Mine is and 1864 1c in EF found in a roll search years ago. I think it's the copper-nickel variety, though...

Just curious as to what should be made of the growing glut of doubled die state quarter varieties, and now involving some of the 2005 Jefferson nickels as well. To me it conjures up images of planchets rattling around out of control in the coin presses. I thought it was supposed to be unusual...

OK, who out there among the thinning-hair set can identify this classic rock reference?? (OK, well, I did take a little bit of liberty with it....) Anyway, I did put up a whole new group of PFCCs tonight...something for everyone, I hope, all with Buy-it-Now. And tomorrow, a few nice auctions will...

They used some Silver Dollars to see if an 1800's period gun could shoot a hole through one ;-( Forgot the two types they used but both just caved the coin in, turning into a "toy shield". They whipped out a 357 and that did the trick LOL. Kari said they were using 1879 coins (Morgans) but...
