Umm... What? Here's a different aperture and light distance; this one makes me think it might be pushing MS63: [IMG] And a flashy '74 proof...
Hah hah... Yeah. I'll NEVER understand how Ike grades work.
So, I got bored and decided to l ook at all the 1974 Mint sets that I own. Sadly, this was the best Ike in the entire group. ISO-800 F/32 1/2.5...
FWIW, MS63 RB PCGS guide is $475. The marketable price on the coin is $350-$425, which is where I got $380 from (MS62 bn sold for $323 on eBay)....
I'm pretty sure no one will pay PCGS MS63 RB money for the coin.
By choosing ANACS, aren't you still looking at getting ~AU money for that? I've noticed ANACS slabbed coins get about 50% of the PCGS list price...
I think interest rates (as far as this specific aspect is concerned) affect on PM prices are a net zero scenario. Basically, the PM markets get...

Sometimes people just aren't looking that week. I won a lot of coins for $98 shipped, and sold two pieces from the lot for $165 shipped... so go...
I'm with Medora. PMs went up in response to oil production being cut in the US. I still say the US should be stockpiling oil right now... until...
I'm still buying platinum and iridium when I can find them up for sale.
I won't be of much help, since the coin is copper. You really should just post the photos here.
Ahh, okay. That actually makes a lot of sense. In that case, is it possible the owner should just keep the coin as is, since subsequent...
Hmm... good write-up, Medora. FWIW, OP's choice of a chart that starts in 1970 is highly deceptive. If you looked at a chart shifted back by...
So, if PCGS is right that it's QC, would it behoove razor to consider having the coin dipped? In your opinion, is the coloring possibly covering...
