  1. I found a 1957 P in 67RB. Thanks all for any help provided!
  2. Retired Navy and would like to have one in my collection. Looking for a Proof example. Thanks! PM me please.
  3. Still in search of the 1957 Lincoln in 67 RB. I guess a nice RD will do.
  4. The Society for U.S. Commemorative Coins was formed in 1983. They started the Commemorative Trail Newsletter. All the Heavy Hitters in the Early Commemorative series were part of this Society. Maybe a good reason prices rose?
  5. Snagged this piece recently. I had a 66+ in the slot already so it had to be the right 67 to replace it. Adding the 67-D moved my birth year set from #7 to #6. I was at #3 last year.
  6. Thanks all for the questions and Bob for his answers to those questions concerning the 1902 Indian Head Cent. PF68 Cameo (Sellers Image): Bob's Image:
  7. Here they are. All coins are NGC graded. The first image is what I had, the second is what Bob did for me: More to follow.
  8. Did a search and didn't find this topic. I for sure didn't want to go thru 100 + pages to find one. I retired from the United States Navy in 1996. I found this piece and wanted to share. Post yours if you have one. And yes, I did cross into the Artic Circle on an Aircraft Carrier and do have this card.
  9. In February thru April, 1924, 142,080 pieces were coined at the Philadelphia Mint with 80 pieces reserved for annual assay and 87,000 sold for a $1 each to the public. A quantity of 55,000 pieces went back to the Treasury Department, which placed the coins into circulation. Designed by George T. Morgan chief engraver of the mint, used designs suggested by Dr. John Baer Stoudt. Distributed by The National Huguenot-Walloon New Netherland Commission, Inc., Rev. John Baer Stoudt, director. Associated with the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America. Image courtesy of GC. Approved by Congress on February 26, 1923 and issued in commemoration of the three hundredth anniversary of the settling of New Netherland, the Middle States, in 1624, by Walloons, French and Belgian Huguenots, under the Dutch West India Company. Coin Description: Obverse: Profiles of Admiral Coligny and William the Silent, with their names, in small letters, below. Inscription above, ‘United States of America.’ Below, ‘Huguenot Half Dollar.’ To right of busts, ‘In God We Trust.’ Reverse: Ship Nieu Netherland, in which the first 30 families of settlers came to New York, with the dates at the sides, 1624 and 1924. Inscription above, Huguenot-Walloon Tercentenary. Below, Founding of New Netherland.
  10. Nothing fancy. Just working on rebuilding my birth year set.
  11. Hi all, Did a search trying to find my answer with no luck. I've noticed some set's as Best in Category that are dated 2014. Wondering what the criteria is for that award. Thank you, Lee
