Untoned it's a $100 widget. NGC and PCGS census have almost 175,000 of them in that grade. So how much is the crazy premium for the toning on this...
"New design" makes sense. S.S. for "Standard Silver" makes me ponder why they thought it was necessary. Were there any non-standard silver coins...
The origin of "teetotaler" goes back to 1833. https://wordhistories.net/2017/01/12/teetotal/
NGC says $525 but PCGS says $1000 and Numismedia says $990. There's your answer. The buyer wasn't hoping it was AU58, they were just getting it...
That would be the baitmaster. The third one is opposite. Strong drink made me smoke more, and no longer smoking made me drink more.
This presumes they will follow the gas station model and use increments that never existed or no longer exist in currency. Gas stations get away...
Which proves my point. Your lookup says MS63. The slab says AU53. You were unable to verify.
Me either. Especially with the abysmal state of computer security. My personal data has been stolen more times than I can remember. There will be...
Production of the Jefferson nickel didn't begin until October 3, 1938. Regarding the 1938-D Buffalo, NGC says "The nation slipped back into...

Well-known but probably only in Thailand I suppose. The king mother and a couple princesses (I'm too lazy to look up their names, sorry). [ATTACH]...
I recall a post somewhere that said it was also caused by old coin banks like this one. I think there was some sort of plunger inside that held...
The expression I'm familiar with is "harsh mistress", not "cruel."
A brief history of the misspelling is in this wiki article. It goes back to at least 1893. The correct spelling, but as two words "pied fort"...
How can you verify the cert if you can't read it? Not that I think it's fake, but $6600 is a lot when you can't look it up. It renders the slab...
Check if there is a TrueView image of it on PCGS and post a link here, or try to take your own images of it. A proof coin shouldn't have the sort...
I never bought from the catalog but I was in that very store a few times as a kid (probably also around 12 years old). You could see the famous...
What is on the label? Did NGC completely miss that it's twice as thick? Numista calls it a pattern....
In my observation, and speaking only generally, many SP and PR coins are not worth as much as the same coin in the same MS grade. That might be...
Separate names with a comma.
