Now and then I come across a coin like this. You really can't see it much if at all in the pictures, but I assure you it has substantial luster...
Hi folks. This variety of the 1840 half dollar is rare enough in its entirety but there are also two sub-varieties. WB-101 is the main variety...
So what would cause this sort of toning? And do you like it? Might as well guess the grade while you're at it :) [ATTACH]
My impression from my prospecting for a Carson City Morgan dollar "type" coin from 1882 - i.e., I was looking for a certified 1882CC $1 with nice...
xf40 - pretty hard to find. An Early New Orleans mintage. Weak obverse strike perhaps around Liberty's head. What do you think? Original...
One that I can afford, that I like, and that fits in my collection. I will have to pay little more than it sold for at the heritage auction...
To Liberty's nose? This coin is a broad mill (not designated), NGC AU55 w CAC. So I assume the void in the poor thing's nose, being as sharp and...
PCGS removed the PCV residue from this coin and put it in a new holder with the same grade. The coin looks OK, but is pretty bright. Since it...
I see in Doug Winter's blog that there is controversy over the status of this Type 1 Double Eagle variety - as noted by NGC and PCGS now...
For your perusal and critique. This is one I own. It's graded XF45 PCGS. Nothing terribly special about it, no beautiful toning or anything,...
I have learned a lot from posting coins for you all to comment on - even wound up with a couple of fresh CAC stickers (which I like) as a result....
On this 1840-O Quarter (PCGS XF40): [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Two out of three this week (which is good because I was 0 for 3 last month). The dollar is in an old green holder. The Braided Cent is currently...
These two coins are remarkably similar in price - the AU50 just a little more. I think I prefer the AU50 because the obverse is so nice - but the...
I'm curious about other's perspective on this. So, here's pictures of two gold 1840-O quarter eagles - both NGC graded au55. One has a rare,...
I know this Ebay seller (centsles) has been brought up before. What I'm wondering is, can anyone who knows more about this than I do explain what...
I've been collecting mid-19th century US coins for a while now, but I only recently decided to find a large cent - I need it to be an 1840 because...
I found this one. I like it, but I can't find another to compare it to. Have not found another in the Heritage archives. Pretty neat. Does...
in a relatively valuable US issue - say something worth more than $1000 in either case (relatively rare silver coinage or older gold - not super...
I recently bought this coin raw and I submitted it to NGC today. Wanna take a guess as to whether it will grade? If so, what grade? I'll let you...
