Strapping tape has ridges like that too, might have once been taped into an album? [ATTACH]
2171703 is the same on both so yes, they were part of the same submission, one was the 5th coin and the other the 63rd. You could find the other...
I did a save-as on those - 4.5mb each. The photography and resolution are fantastic. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I have tons of WWII era world coins in 2x2s from grandpa. He was the librarian at the Chicago Tribune and I suspect many of them came home with...
After Windows forced an update last night, this garbage randomly popped up this morning. Check out the teeny tiny disclaimer at the bottom -...
Smorgasbord. [ATTACH]
It does seem like we're on the cusp of a frightening time, and not just for coin collecting. Scientific research is being killed off...
High resolution images are up on their website too now, but no direct link or blurb yet....
I think NGC is the only one that does it that way. I've seen those last three digits go up to 500 on a bulk submission. When you do a cert verify,...
Look's like the cat is out of the (coin) bag. Just got this email from Stack's. There's no link to a press release so I've copy/pasted the...
002 just means it was the second coin in that submission, the first 7 or 8 digits being the submission number. I think that post was tongue in...

Another favorite. I bought this in an old ICCS MS60 holder. It sat around for years before I noticed everything going on with it. It's the SWL...
That's a caribou, not an elk. Still a majestic animal. Estes Park CO golf course has the same "problem", and yes, you don't want to get anywhere...
Interesting read and thanks for that! I always have problems with those early silver coins because there's no denomination on them and they all...
Grandpa got me started on them with these two. Big, beautiful hunks of silver. With those mintages, particularly the George V and George VI years,...
I guess I lost interest. You didn't say whether they had to have coins in them. :) [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I see enough pickup points to confirm the correct hub types. On the obverse, the ribbon touches the N, the inner ear is weak, the leaf is distant...
If you had it certified somebody might want the absolute worst 1895-O dime ever slabbed just as a gag. But that's a financial gamble. I can say...
Actually, I think it is an 1895-O. It has the correct obverse and reverse hub types (most of the fakes don't) and the date and mm positions appear...
Separate names with a comma.
