That is not exactly true. If the object is removed from the source of air and moisture, it will stop toning. Normal air has moisture. If you live...
looks like worn dies and maybe a little machine doubling. I don't know of any coins with doubled dies for both the obverse and reverse at the same...
I say why bother? I would not worry at all about a little toning. If the toning was black, that would be a different story all together. This is...
The auction houses are getting a Sellers premium + a Buyers premium, which can end up being 42%! Having a valuable collection can take some of the...
Both coins are damaged coins after leaving the mint and are worth less than face value in my opinion. The 2006-D would be a clad coin The only...
I believe they are not able to verify that the coin is genuine. They are not saying it is not, but they can't tell for sure. Filed edges may...
Shouldn't this have been one of the colorized coins??? After all it is supposed to be a "PURPLE" heart.
MS64RB- It may just be a brown and not red/brown but I think it has just enough color to make it a RB. I think it is a nice coin.
contacts on reverse seem to limit it to me to a 64.

Since the half has a fingerprint, I would dip them, rinse them well with water then follow up with an Acetone bath to finish. Hopefully the...
I am going with EF40, maybe even a VF35.
I will say AU55 as the luster is somewhat low and what appears to be wear on the hand. It could be a weak strike, but it just doesn't look that...
The tip of the washington Monument is a pyramid block 8.9" tall and made of aluminum. At that period of time, it was worth more than gold. The...
Gold is one of the only metals that can be found in a natural state (not oxidized). Most all other metals oxidize and thus can look different in a...
Just imagine what the price/value of this coin would be if it was a 1916!
66+ Full Head. A very nice coin, would probably be a 67 except for the marks on the reverse. It has a very strong strike with the full head and...
Looks like a PR66RB, might even go 67.
I can see 1857 as the date. It would be a perfect F01 grade for a low ball set.
