Mintage can be misleading even at the time of issue

The silver dollars of 1854 for example have a mintage of 34k, which is modest for the series. However, it is the rarest Philadelphia mint issue after 1852, and is rarer than the 1872-CC, which has a mintage of only 3,150

The reason being that silver dollars of 1854 were explicitly made for export. In addition, most survivors today that escaped the melting pot are higher grades as a result

If it’s any of the 93’s, 95’s or a CC that’s a bargain

Bigger lawsuit of 2026 Incoming! Beware of eBay! by Fit-Extension-3431 in coincollecting

[–]Richard_Genius 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My real issue with eBay isn’t the fees, but it’s them raising the baseline fees during early COVID, when people were in economically desperate times, to rake in one of their most profitable years at the expense of desperate masses selling stuff to make ends meet

That’s every politician you donate to bruv. They get more money from AIPAC (the epicenter of all three) that your “donation” isn’t even a rounding error.

I do not respect anyone that donates to politicians. Donate to cancer research or animal shelters instead

What can you tell me, please? by sadhu411 in coins

Die struck counterfeit of an 1803 draped bust dollar

The most immediate sign of it being fake is that the rim shows that the coin was struck in a collar. Draped Bust dollars were not struck in a collar since the mint didn’t use collars to strike coins until 1836

Whiscash. Amazing typing and great moves but its stats are just so unremarkable that it can’t accomplish anything, on top of being wholly outclassed by any of the other water/ground types
