re: Tips from MT Coin Collectorsquote: I've thought about putting together a Morgan series but thought I'd start with Eagles since they're more plentiful. My wallets going to take a hit when I get to the 2006 coin set with the regular proof, reverse proof and standard eagle as well as the 2012 set with the regular proof and reverse proof. After I finish the eagle proof series I'm going to move on to completing a silver state quarter series with proofs. This post was edited on 1/20 at 6:39 pm Reply • Back to Top |
| rmc: Yes, get the penny book, and go on ebay and buy a bag of 5000 pennies (wheat) to look for dates. Should be around $200. Reply • Back to Top |
| Since we are on the subject of coins - I just looked at my silver coins - they are turning color - darker esp the larger ones. I have had them for 20 years and they have been fine. I always assumed you dont ever clean coins - same rule for this? (silver coins turning?) Reply • Back to Top |
quote: Toning is normal. Some people will pay extra for a natural toned coin and depending on how the toning looks increases the value of the coin to a collector. And yes, just like cleaning your coins (never ever clean your coins), don't clean or try to remove the toning. Reply • Back to Top |
| Any of our gurus around? I have a question regarding "high relief" and "Matte" coins.... Reply • Back to Top |

| How do you guys make sure your coins on eBay haven't been cleaned before you purchase them? Can you really tell from a picture. Reply • Back to Top |

| I honestly do not think that is a very good deal. Ive been doing a ton of auction watching, and you can get uncirculated, excellent condition coins for $60 (except for a few obvious years). Reply • Back to Top |

quote: Just guessing, but I doubt your going to get anything that would put the value over what you are paying. I'd imagine it would be a better deal to pick them up one by one off of Ebay or whatnot Reply • Back to Top |
| No doubt. I am not expecting a key date or anything. Best I could find though is the CC coins seem to be very expensive. Reply • Back to Top |
quote: Yeah, from what I've seen, usually 5 or 6 times what the others are. Still $380 for 5 coins: If the CC you get is worth $200, you are still paying $45 for each of the others, plus shipping which is ridiculous on APMEX. Doesn't seem like a great deal to me, but I'm new to all of this. Reply • Back to Top |

quote: And if my math is correct, that total is 7,556,000. Considering that in 1879 alone 14,806,000 were minted in Philadelphia alone, I would say that is pretty good. BTW, thanks for that link!! Reply • Back to Top • Refresh |
