Looks like I will close my Littleton account. Plenty of us have been caught in their net. I did my time with them in the early 80s. Call it tuition for your numismatic education.  |

I agree with above. Littleton always overcharges for their coins they sell. Hopefully you can get your money back.

Unfortunately, common dates worth slightly more than spot silver. Please do some research on sold coins on different sites for current worth, this breaks my heart.

Your best bet is to find a local coin show to attend. You'll find much better ( and I mean much better) prices at a local show than your paying for these.
Good luck!

This is just a test to see if I can post side-by-side photos.  Success! Now I have to get used to the process. The process sort of boggles my mind.  |

I've always thought of Littleton as a place where people who don't know much about coins can buy a few coins just as show pieces and be happy with them. But for real collectors, there's a much larger (and cheaper) world out there.

But for real collectors, there's a much larger (and cheaper) world out there. Thats exactly why I'm going to Littleton. I'm new to collecting and am afraid of getting ripped off on ebay. I've bought a few things on ebay and I've been happy with what I got. When I get used to other sources I will buy from them. Joanne |

People are still getting ripped off from Littleton in 2026? Oof

If you keep buying from Littleton the user ID you use here (Empty-Pockets) will mean a lot more than it does now! Your best bet is coin shows, reputable ebay Sellers and local coin shops. Continue to do your homework and you'll do fine. Chalk up the buying mistakes to the price of tuition for your degree at the "School of Numismatics". I've been attending that school for almost 70 years and still haven't graduated! As always CCF members here are here to answer your questions and point you in the right direction!

The only time I would consider using Littleton is if I got an ad offer for a silver eagle far below melt value. I have bought my fair share of them, always making sure to cancel my membership after each purchase.
