Beyond all the reasons stated above, doesn't the Mint have their "official dealers" program? My understanding was that the Mint price was...
Quite cool with really strong doubling. That might be desirable, but the color might be considered no grade, depending on how the grader feels...
One roll of small dollars ($25).
I've concluded that my coins are master die doubled, since the 1971 P ones have the same doubling, as do my 1972 D and P halves.
At first, I assumed you overpaid, since there's an 1892 up for the same price, but it seems the gap in the price of the two has vanished. I guess...
I meant the book... it blows the ANA book out of the water: [IMG]
That's why I thought I had a regular one. All five sets had the same looking coins. Edit: Here are the coins. #2 [IMG] [IMG] #3 [IMG] [IMG]...
Lyds All five of my 1971-D 50c have the same "E" in LIBERTY.
I may be a homer, but I like the PCGS book.
Ahh, okay. I thought the "T" in LIBERTY looked funny, too. In the pictures, it looks MS-62, perhaps even AU-58. Should I bother with unpacking it?
Anyway, here's the obv/rev of my stupid Kennedy: [IMG] [IMG]
Is it just me or does the sticker look tampered with? The bottom left of the sticker looks ...blank?
You can see luster in the high points of the relief, but I'd actually think it was cleaned, due to the significantly different look from the...
Eh. They weren't showing sympathy. There's a tolerance level built into CS modeling. If you've spent more than X min on a specific issue, and it...
Brett, curious point on Pamp. I used to buy the 1 oz ingots with a premium based upon how low the number was. It paid off. I got a 200% premium on...
You might be surprised with the coin in hand. It does look really nice, and I'm guessing the photography (coupled with the color balance on the...
I just found a DDO 008 (or whichever one has the exaggerated E in LIBERTY). Thanks Lyds. Ironically, this was a "free" set. :D I won it off eBay...
My point was that if you can buy and hold, you're better off not DCAing, since you can buy the dips instead. It's just a slightly better method of...
Gibson's paradox applies primarily to consumed commodities. While non-consumed commodities may see an increase in price, it would be entirely due...
I'm going with over-dipped. Those surfaces look lifeless with no luster to speak of.
