MS-60 to MS-70 scale. The difference between MS-65 and MS-66 can be thousands of dollars. Learn to grade by eye.

The 50 State Quarters program is brilliant for getting kids into collecting. Only 3 states left for my complete set!

Detecting error coins in circulation

Check your change! Doubled dies, off-center strikes, and wrong planchet errors are still out there. What to look for.

Tried three different approaches before this one worked. Persistence pays off.

Silver coin investing
Aug 30, 2025 5:56 am
Pre-1965 US dimes, quarters, and halves are 90% silver. Buying at spot price is essentially investing in silver with numismatic upside.
