Collectors Article Of The Day

More Gold & Silver Coins Information

When it comes to hand lenses, four or five powers of magnification seem to be the norm for many collectors. At these powers, an entire coin may be viewed all at once, which is especially useful when grading. Nevertheless, unless you are an experienced numismatist, you will not be able to see characteristics such as metal flow, die doubling, and counterfeit diagnostics on many coins when using minimal magnification. The micrograph shows the head detail of a genuine 1861-O CSA Obverse Seated half dollar. This view is close to what you would expect to see when using a 10� hand lens.
Buy US paper money.

Coin collectors are much more common than old money collectors of the paper variety, though the latter are still quite active and manage to find some rare items occasionally. That paper variety may include pre US colonial currency, money from the beginning of the 19th century, currency from the Confederate States of America and also some souvenir cards of old money as the money itself are almost impossible to find and twice as hard to purchase.
Buy silver dollars for a great investment.

The investment potential of banknotes has been evident over the years. Some items have seen a growth in value of 10,000% since the end of the last war! American Confederate States notes, for example, could then be bought for about 25c each in the USA. Now, they are hard to find for 100 times that amount. Even the indiscriminate collector can expect profit in the long-run, for most banknotes tend to rise in value. Scarcity and demand are the chief factors that govern market values, and banknotes are only produced in limited numbers, so when production of each note ceases, the existing examples can only become increasingly scarce and therefore increasingly valuable.
Buy silver dollars mixed lots for a great investment.

$500, $1,000, $5,000, and $10,000 U.S. Federal Reserve Notes. Most $500 and $1,000 bills are quite common, and are typically worth only a small premium over face value. Circulated 1934 series notes are usually worth from $500 to $800 for the $500s and from $1,000 to $1,400 for the $1,000s, depending on condition. The 1928 series usually carries an extra 10% to 20% premium. Uncirculated $500 and $1,000 bills are quite desirable, although they are usually worth no more than twice face value. All Star Note high denomination bills are very rare, and $5,000 and $10,000 bills are worth much more than face value unless they are damaged, and we would suggest consultation with one of our currency experts if you possess one of these notes.
