  1. Today I was at a convience store. The clerk asked me what I thought about a mirror finished nickel circa 1962. I took it from him said it was counterfeit and gave him a regular nickel for it. It’s a proof coin. No doubt.
  2. 1976 nickle with the D mint mark close to the date....not much, but it was acquired,lol
  3. double dog dare......somebody saw christmas story one too many times
  4. Wheatie is a wheatie they should all be 7 bucks a piece I’m kidding
  5. He’s right. I just sold 3 1922 wheaties for 20 bucks.
  6. no just one so far, 1 week tops... auction / paypal. Throwing this out there if the problem is more numerous than just my one time, I guess.
  7. So How much leeway should be allowed when selling? What I mean is a bidder wins , but never pays....How long does a seller wait til he is forced to cancel the order because of non payment? I've done this once already , waited 6 business days......Any thoughts??
  8. or google for that matter, in defense of the'' written word '' so to speak ,not the bible!, In these archaic times we live in some levity is just what the doctor ordered, sadly it's always not cut an dry reading between the lines.........and some replies are misunderstood.......I'll shut up now, my serious mode is about to click off.....
  9. I’m still looking for the 2015 (p) version to be printed. Most if not all the print do not recognize the coin.
  10. one coin forum is enough for the likes of me.....between the Harley ,The Stinger and the Ram I used to own.......oh and then there's Golfer.com.......(relax I just made that one up)
  11. NGC 6064802-004......newly acquired......lessee if ngc has a pic, https://www.ngccoin.com/certlookup/6034802-004/67/
  12. Agreed. I’m always buying with the belief I can resell at a coin show. Knowing full well I’m to cheap to buy the vendor fee🤣🤣
  13. Oh yeah! Anytime I search a car or truck or in the market for a big ticket item, I check out the forums on that specific item....boatload of knowledge.......steered clear out of a lot of headaches too.
  14. I'll throw a picture up on a new thread.....prolly tomorrow.
  15. Mine was in a mint set.......but not from the mint........one of those ''Americas most rarest coins'' set.....Yeah i got one,lol flea market for 5 bucks....the other coins look authentic btw.
  16. I'll buy that......not the coin just the reply,lol..( I already spent way too much on silver )..........Now instead of buying I grab a coin roll or 2 from the bank and check 'em out....spare change goes in a bottle.
  17. That being said I have one more reason not to bother........I can only take one coin forum in a lifetime anyways.......
  18. no, I disagree even the worst grade '64 half dollar is worth a few bucks to the right buyer.......
  19. I have a obviously zinc plated ''steely''...Man it looks beautiful, but it's just as worthless as the Chinese ase magnetized on my fridge....nice to look at, but just that.
  20. that damned mirror finish........cool dry place for storage and don't breathe ,lol
  21. I started collecting coins about the same time you joined the forum.........that being said I'll never feel the way you say you feel about a silver collection.......sure I'll sell 80% of my stuff , in time....but to me it's the nostalgia, the history, the thinking of what the world was like when that coin left the mint.......Thats why I do it.....I'll never tire from it . Not for a long time I gather , while I gather more coins , sell some ....but always, always holding on.......Mod, you should ''hold on'' I while longer......jmho.
  22. ty to you and yours.....covid ain't screwing up this bird.......( I can do it on my own,lol)
  23. Just the bicentennial or all mint sets in general?? I have a '61 and a '62 proof set(s)....new 2.10 bucks now 22.00 according to ''the red book''
  24. I must love copper......I have a ton of wheaties all of a sudden......
