I agree that Buffalo nickels are underpriced. Most of the prices are ok on the G4 level but the higher the grade is where I think some of the prices need adjusted. Its alot harder than you think to find buffalos in high grades especially 60 or better. |

3CN are definitely undercollected and not in high demand at this point. Business and Proof strikes seem quite affordable based on surviving examples.

I think Mercury dimes are a little undervalued, especially in the higher grades. They're a beautiful coin. There time will come. |

I would agree on the Franklin halves. Alot of them have low mintages compared to the later year Walking Liberty halves. Although I think the WL half is probably the best looking US coin made, there is something about the Franklin half that I have always liked. |

I want an Elmer Fudd Franklin. That's a particular 1955 variety, am I right? Are all 1955's Fudd's or just a select few?

3 CN's are under priced, along with 2 cent & 3 cent silvers. But, for value, check out some of the semi-key Barber dimes, quarters & half dollars. |

I think Buffalo nickels semi-keys and keys are undervalued- 26S and 31S especially I think 31S Wheat cent is undervalued. I think some of the Franklins in G-VG should be higher than buillion due to low mintages. I think Walking Liberty halves are about right- higher than buillion for most of the teens, 20s and 30s, buillion for the 40s. Keys are about right, maybe even a tad high. Peace dollar set is low, considering the low mintage of many of the coins. At some point this set should routinely break $1000. Right now it runs $700-900 for medium to low grade sets. I think Indian cents are undervalued, especially VG and better commons. But some of the early 70s and late 60s might be a little high. I cannot believe one can buy Mercury dimes for buillion, but I guess the massive mintages of the 40s dampens them from taking off. For them to take off, I think we are going to need a massive melt of the 40s. Also undervalued, I think, are the semi-key Jefferson nickels (38D &S, 39D&S, 42D). For coins that are >60 years old, this is remarkable to be able to pick up low grade for under $2 and yet one cannot get these dates (except very, very rarely) from circulation/roll hunting. |
