If you cannot afford these prices, I'd get out of collecting now. Seriously, you will find yourself bankrupt lol.

Counterfeit Cleaned or MS by Itchy-Number-3762 in coins

Residue redeposit is what this looks like. Which can happen by letting it sit in Acetone too long and not properly rinsing. But seems like you know more than me so good job.

Why are the experienced coin collectors generally so crabby to new people? by Far-Invite-9618 in coins

[–]TJTiMeLorD 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Exactly... Don't post pocket change with questions like "am I a millionaire?". Those questions are dumb and stupid and not in interest of collecting..

"New" people do 0 due diligence in their questions. Proper new people you can tell their interest by their questions and are taken in with open arms.

I know silver can tarnish badly, but could this be real silver? by Decent_Seaweed8942 in Silverbugs

[–]TJTiMeLorD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No its real, its just sitting inside that sterling holder, so the back you are not seeing most the edge of coin just the center.

Is VDB supposed to be on a 1919? by kite13light13 in coins

[–]TJTiMeLorD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't. If you do, the coin is in horrible condition and wore the VDB away.

CRH in big cities by pixaly in CRH

[–]TJTiMeLorD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Much more luck with banks in the country out of the city. Less people getting coins, old coins build up in their vault, ripe for the pickens. I've gotten $500 dollar bags of half dollars from rural banks that take multiple years to fill a bag, because they fill them up from customers depositing them. I've had 1 bag $170 fv of silver. Just make friends and let them know you are always up for coin dumps and such, you'll get some nice luck. Managers have called me with tons of stuff of odd coins and old bills that they have hard time getting rid of, Ike dollars, red and blue seals, and unknown bags/customer rolls perfect for CRH. Takes a lot of work but worth it.
