I figure there must be some way to improve scuffed or scratched certified coin holders--anyone have recommendations? Also, I would think that the...
Let's say you got in a time machine and were able to go back 100 or more years. Would, say a roll of $20 Liberties (20) be enough to make the...
Those are great coins. And no problem in good grades I'm sure.
I bought a few coins anyway. Their 1798 Bust $1 they priced at GS fine, I decided not to risk it since it wasn't certified. Great coin, but as a...
Wow, is that 1836 a reeded or lettered edge?
That's probably true about Barbers. The current edition of the Rosen numismatic advisory has an article on historical performance of Barber type...
We could give many examples on rarity vs. condition vs. popularity. Would you rather have a High Relief Saint in mint condition, or the finest...

I have been acquiring and auctioning quite a few of these, partly spurred by John Albanese's (CAC) comments that these are great pieces in XF and...
I will take their side of the issue just for kicks, I see they had a "cameo" Roosevelt dime in PR67 in Coin World for $1500! An Everest coin for...
Thanks, but I don't have audio.
When I call PCGS on an invoice status a couple of times they have said that their pros are in Asia, Hong Kong, etc., on a trade show or grading...
I spoke with an elderly gentleman who had bought an uncertified 1795 Flowing Hair dollar at an auction for $4000. He sent it to NGC, it came back...
Many auction companies seed their auctions with material designed to draw bids from the gullible. We do not ordinarily have tutorials in how not...
I just want the same level of accountability from companies that I deal with as what I require of myself. Many people are not that good with...
Thanks for the professional response. You buy 20 or 30 nice coins coming to several thousand dollars; get the coins certified or send them to an...
Pliers have always worked for me. Is notorious crack out expert Mark Chrans (Visionary Coins) still doing his crackouts?
