Why I Like 1893 s silver dollars

Numismatists Article Of The Month



Gold & Silver Coin Bullion Info

If you do decide to clean your old coins they are best cleaned with soap and a soft cloth or you can use Vaseline or olive oil and a Q-tip. These methods can remove dirt and grime while not scratching the surface. Because gold is inert, it does not tone when it comes in contact with oxygen and so a simple surface cleaning will not usually change the coin's appearance. Silver coins, including pre-1965 half dollars, quarters and dimes, will retain the same toning (good or bad), as this kind of cleaning does not remove the surface layer, but it may remove dirt, grime, and some oils from the surface of the coin.
Buy 1878 silver dollars for a great investment.

Whether you are buying from a bricks and mortar dealer or buying online through a website or an auction site like EBay, check the reliability of the dealer. For a store, at least check with the local Better Business Bureau. If the dealer is a member of the Professional Numismatists Guild (PNG), that is a big plus. For an EBay auction, check the seller's feedback rating. If it's very low, or there are many negatives, think twice before spending a large sum with them. On large ticket items, ask if the seller will agree to use Escrow.com. They act as a middleman and the money doesn't pass to the seller until the buyer is satisfied with the item. The buyer will pay a charge, but it's well worth it when big money is changing hands.
