  1. Hey buddy. Hopefully you forgive my odd sense of humor. That is a cool looking situation there but as mentioned nothing of value. Whatโ€™s important is your interest in coins and I really want to welcome you and say keep looking and search eBay for numismatic literature. Iโ€™m always surprised by how a specific request gets me results. And there is you tube and such. Iโ€™m just too old to tweet or post on Facebook or some other sight. Might be good for you though. Lastly I was told to collect what I liked and what made me happy and I would find enjoyment for a long time and not regret any coin I liked enough to purchase. Enjoy ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿฆซ๐Ÿ™€๐Ÿ˜ธ๐Ÿ˜ป
  2. As I was born in 52 Iโ€™ll give you a nickel ๐Ÿ˜ Welcome to the jungle ๐Ÿ˜‚ Just kidding, welcome and pictures will be necessary or sight unseen, my offer of a shiny nickel, stands๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ™€๐Ÿ˜ธ๐Ÿ˜ป๐Ÿฆซ
  3. In this corner. Idhair And his opponent tj96
  4. Letโ€™s shake paws and have a fair fight ๐Ÿ˜‚ Tonightโ€™s referee will be ๐Ÿ™€
  5. You donโ€™t say. Seems they do allow overstrikes.
  6. Nope. Spent half the night trying and they are the reverse proof on both sides ๐Ÿ˜‚
  7. Shiny as in possibly cleaned? Because they are shiny ๐Ÿ˜
  8. Certainly canโ€™t go wrong with those prices ๐Ÿ˜. Congratulations. Iโ€™ve got the satin label on several of my nickels from that mid 2004-6 run. I kinda like em. Not sure it adds a lot to value. I didnโ€™t get quite the deal you did. L&C coins has a good variety and fair prices. Easy to deal with and zero hassle returns. ( not affiliated). They also publish a 5x7 monthly catalog thatโ€™s makes for a handy reference and price guide of sorts. ๐Ÿ™
  9. JB. I canโ€™t open your PM. So I will start this and please repost your questions. I will post this. At $175 release, and fairly low mintage 125,000 Iโ€™m surprised that they are selling cheap. Hereโ€™s an example from eBay. $175 + call it $30 for grading ( which is low) Whereโ€™s the beef? I realize that the 70โ€™s are hoped for but this example can be the normal.
  10. I feel like I should apologize for having an enrollment. I received notice yesterday that my 2 are processing. I agree , itโ€™s frustrating to jump through hoops. The enrollment does open up every once in a while. I worked and worked to get everything I might want on enrollment. I can change quantity up to a few days before release. The advance release started just a couple years ago. I donโ€™t know what the big boys did. Iโ€™ve heard buyers club kinda sweat shop style. Good luck this morning. ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿฆซ๐Ÿ™€
  11. Glad to join you JP. It started as Decoration Day , back during Civil War era. Thanks, to those who gave all for our freedoms. ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ™€๐Ÿฆซ
  12. J P. What a wonderful comment. Thank you. Really put me in a nice place. Your spot on. ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ™€๐Ÿฆซ
  13. Their hair is on fire over on pcgs forum. One after another with problems. One of the regular folks said they have personally seen almost 100 privyโ€™s and they are not looking good. I got a rather magnificent one but had to clean the coin and capsule with air to remove lint and odd crumbs. They are available right now and have been up all dang day on the mint website. ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ™€๐Ÿฆซ
  14. Yes Hog. Thatโ€™s army p-38 but not sure if thatโ€™s itโ€™s USMC designation. Used to carry one on my keys, nick and cuts aside,( I used to drink and forget the blade was out) I found it mighty handy. Grandpa and pop both Navy. My personal respect for the Marines is very high. ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ™€๐Ÿฆซ
  15. Think about this for a minute and post as you see fit ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ™€๐Ÿฆซ
  16. Well Kurt. Thatโ€™s a pop top can o worms if not ( us old guys will get this ) time to get out the P-38 and open field style ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ™€๐Ÿฆซ
  17. Beaver would like to share what heโ€™s learned ๐Ÿฆซ ( Iโ€™m quite proud of the little fella). Go ahead ๐Ÿ˜Ž ๐Ÿฆซ โ€œ buy on the dip!โ€ To that end, check this out ( got a massive deal ) ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ™€๐Ÿฆซ
  18. Well now. Go away for a week and come back to this. Having studied across the street and here, there is one undeniable fact when discussing โ€œthe beanโ€. Let all beware ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ™€๐Ÿฆซ This is the one truth ๐Ÿคจ
  19. I vote. My pictures are cool. The boys arenโ€™t sure if youโ€™re that funny but I enjoy it. Gets way too serious around here sometimes. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ™€๐Ÿฆซ
  20. No such animule. No no. 64 SMS is a unicorn ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ™€๐Ÿฆซ
  21. Hey howdy. Listen to RWB. No such critter. Itโ€™s great your researching and keep your chin up and keep learning and searching
  22. I am just going to say, I donโ€™t know. What years, condition, silver? Pictures would help but I need more information. Maybe. Personally, I can think of about 27 things I would buy first but again maybe itโ€™s a tube of 64โ€™s in great shape. ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ™€๐Ÿฆซ
