Where do you keep your collection?
Do people have home safes? Bank boxes? Or just not worried about it... theft, water or fire?
1898 5 imperial Russian rubles
Just wanted to show my imperial ruble that I’ve had for about a year now
Happy 1 Year Pocketversary
One year ago I received this holed and welded 1857 Seated Liberty Quarter, and figured it made the perfect keychain pocket piece candidate. How did I do in the past year?
1916 mercury d dime
Wondering what you guys think before I send it off. Dad is a big coin collector and he came across it a while back.
The One Onza Libertad was one of the first coins I used on my thrifted digital microscope
Susan B Anthony coin
Found this while going through all my old money is it worth anything
Open 1? Or keep both sealed?
Bought these off a guy $10. Should I open one?
Just got my first proof coin
Very happy. I love proof coins. Shiny
coin sellers, are these types of coins worth anything?
dad passed recently, kept a lot of them would like to see if some of them are worth anything there are older ones too like 1970s mostly and some 2000s
Coin stamped
I recently got this walking half, I did not notice when I was looking over that behind the tail feather it haa been stamped. Looks like WA. Does anybody know about this?
1932 Quarter, AU Details or cleaned?
Found this in a roll of 90% Washington's that I got for melt value. Wondering if it has been cleaned, im not the best at determining a grade nor am I the best at spotting every cleaned coin. However it looks pretty nice to me, it does have a couple small nicks on Washington's face and it is bit "scratchy" in places which makes me question if someone had attempted to clean it at some point. It could very well all just be circulation wear. The details look sharp to me, especially the feathers on the eagles chest on the reverse. Im thinking AU Details, maybe AU58, maybe on a good day at the right grading service MS60 but doubtful. What do you guys think?
Toning Wisdom
Love this coin including the colorful toning. My concern is had this naturally occurred over a period of time or been helped along the way. On the obverse, the outlines of the toning seem to have been caused by tape or placement in an album or something of that nature. While not symmetrically encircledl, it lends to its credibility. Also on the legit ledger, the toning travels organically front to back. And of course, it’s not a multi colored coins that seem almost tie dyed -not anything that obvious. My only concern is the blue. Of course I have legit blue toned coins but I had a bias against those with a beautiful blue tone, too, before being calmed by persons more on top of toning tells. ld love more experienced evaluators thoughts. Thanks in advance. Appreciate your wisdom.
I cannot get enough of silver world coins.
Especially mid/early century pesos.
Coins my dad has found working at LAX Airport early 2000s
my favorite is either the giant eisenhower or the half dollar with the angel lady on it, if you know history or cool stuff about any of these please let me know
Just inherited a collection of Russian coins, how do I price each?
Hello everyone,
Just as the title says, I’m now diving into numismatics to help me understand how this markets works, how to value coins, how to grade coins, and what to do with them.
You can find some pictures attached of a part of my collection, most are 1899, some are from 02’-03’ and the rarest it would seem are from 1911. Each has different initials ranging from A-R, F-Z, A - B, E - B. I have about 65 of these coins.
Conditions are different and not the best, so not sure how that affects the coin value.
Furthermore, I noticed that the lettering on the edges of the coins seems to be mirrored on some coins (not sure why is that?)
Would appreciate any input you guys could give! I am trying to see whether these have any sort of numismatic value, or if they’re worth only as much as what their worth in gold is.
Thank you in advance.
First pre-33 gold
Picked up at 3% over spot, felt fair, seems in good shape.
