You are going to drive yourself crazy with this over the weekend. This is a rare case where I agree with Charley. It's just a database error....
This is what I got when I looked it up on the CAC database: [ATTACH] Have you talked to DLRC yet?
Another FUN Show pickup. This is the 1862 Variety 4 Liberty Seated Half Dime in Proof 65. It replaces a raw AU-55 in the Type Set. The TrueView...
Oh, yeah @bikergeek, go ahead and laugh. I not only picked up coins at the show but also a nice bug that I've been dealing with since Monday....
This was a late pick-up at FUN. It's the Ryder 1-D die marriage of the Massachusetts half cent, a Rarity 4- coin. I'd been looking for the...
Google Gerry Fortin Rare Coins and you will find a link on the home page to his LS dime attribution guide. The most complete in existence and...
I was there from Wednesday through noon on Sunday. Missed @ldhair unfortunately but @lardan stopped by my local coin club table and we had a nice...
I attended Bill's presentation and once the audio-visual issues were settled, it was a very nice overview of the counterfeit coin and slab...
That is a pretty amazing coin. It is an extremely late die state and the clash is a cherry on top. Great pickup - wish I'd had a shot at it.
The only two I have, from the Type Set. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I'll be there starting Wednesday through Sunday. I finished my show want list yesterday. If I manage 10% of that, I'll be very happy.
Thanks. I have read that there are about 610 including the die states. Die states are not remarriages of course, although some of them could be....
Ay, and there's the rub. If that's true, then collectors with PCGS/NGC beaned coins getting automatic crossovers to CACG are getting hosed...
This is quite a bit of an esoteric question for the Capped Bust Half Dollar collectors out there. I asked it of a friend that is a rabid Bust...
The short answer is 1% to 25% but that's not very illuminating, is it? So, a couple of examples: I assume you mean the US coins minted between...
While WD-40 and many other compounds would accomplish the same thing on a slab scratch, I wouldn't recommend anything that is adulterated with...
My Local Coin Club collects old editions and we give them away to YNs from our table at the FUN shows.
I may have posted this hack before but I had a graphic example today while photographing a new coin. This 1833 Capped Bust Half Dime (PCGS AU-50,...
I hear the most amazing tripe, even at my local coin club. At the last meeting, one of the officers told me that the high price of gold is...
Delighted to hear it. GC has been far too fine an organization to have allowed such subpar photography. A very positive change.
