My dad brought his collection over the other night. I will eventually inherit his collection, in which the coins are loose in a fireproof box. I...
The slab is old and has a few scratches and dings on it so maybe that's what you were seeing.
It's not a fingerprint. It's just a low quality picture.
I bought it not so much for the penny (I've found BU 1960s pennies in rolls) but for the holder. I'll never sell it. I don't sell my coins.
I haven't found a standing Liberty quarter but I know there are Indian heads and V nickels out there.
Yes, they throw several coins at the proverbial wall hoping one will stick. Makes perfect sense.
There's a lot of stuff still out there, you just have to go through a lot of skunk to find it.
Congratulations. A few weeks ago I spotted a 1950 nickel in a roll. I put it aside and looked through the rest of the roll hoping it had the D...
Those are just about perfect!
Here is the penny. It sure is pretty. My question is why would somebody send such an ordinary coin to be graded? Don't get me wrong, I love...
I just got the penny last night, but I've had the nickel for a couple of months (purchased from a fellow forum member). These are the only slabs...
The case says "ICG - MS65 RD" and the date and denomination of the coin along with "LARGE DATE" which is pretty obvious. Pics coming soon.
I got the coin in the mail tonight, and it is lovely. I'll try to get some good pics sometime Sunday evening. I don't know if it was a good deal...
It isn't pretty as silver, but it's harder and takes abuse better which means cupronickel coins usually last longer. That being said, some silver...
Today I received a slabbed MS 65 1960 large date penny and a Series 1957 silver certificate star note in the mail.
Then they're a great value and should be snapped up because they will eventually go up in value.
I have a question: How is this coin considered "mint state" with all the discoloration? Don't get me wrong, it's a lovely coin and I'd be proud...
I would have found a way to reach it. I would have gotten a dowel rod or something long and slender enough to reach the dime. It's silver, and I...
What are your most impressive work finds? Mine are a 1912 V nickel, a bicentennial 40% silver business strike, several '50s Franklin halves,...
I destroyed the card and put it in the garbage. I was curious about what was on the card, but not curious enough to put my computer at risk.
