Call that $1395 price "supply and demand" or "cry now or cry later." I doubt that Apmex will have much of a problem selling these out at $1395....
Lint was a problem with mine as well, even after using a Rocket Blower on the plastic: [ATTACH][ATTACH] [IMG]
It is very nice but out of my price range. My budget might stretch as high as an MS-64FB, but the only PCGS example I know of for sale is at an...
I paid a reasonable market price for an MS-63 without FB. Sending it back to NGC is a gamble, which, thanks to the seller's honesty and...
The seller has agreed to accept a return, so I'm only out shipping costs. That still doesn't explain how that coin got into an NGC-63 holder, though.
I suppose it says something than on this Thanksgiving week, when we should all remember our blessings, I'm posting about a curse. Over 40 years...
Too many to list, but I'll nominate three: 1854-D $3 Gold. 1861-O Proof Half Dollar 1909 VDB Matte Proof Cent.
Was there enough copper? Perhaps. But the fears of running out of copper were far from groundless. Demand for copper increased greatly for...
Congratulations! Here's a shot of the obverse of my Indian $2.50: http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/vz9LIUjEb3JIEpqE-zykGA?feat=directlink
If nothing else, this debate shows how difficult it is to judge if a coin's been dipped from a photograph. In the end, it doesn't really matter to...
J.H. Cline, the authority on SLQ's as far as I'm concerned, is offering an MS-63FH for $900 and a pair of MS-65FH for $3400. While the BIN price...
The Lafayette Dollar I sent to them was in an NGC MS-63 slab and came back in an NGC MS-64 slab. That one point is about an $800-$1000...
A 1969 UTU Commemorative Medal. 38mm, high relief, possibly piedfort. In the original (PVC) flip with rough-cut litho sheet. I probably overpaid...
How about a pair of PCGS MS64BN 1853's? [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
A 50-cent piece, a 1/2 cent piece, and all of the 3 cent pieces ever minted...
It's my last name. I'm so boring.
Mind if I throw in my 1/13th of a Shilling? [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Wasn't the Lafayette Dollar also designed by Barber?

Lovely! My only Charlotte coin is an 1851 $1, which I don't think qualifies as "early."
