With so much online I don't have many books. Charlton catalogs for Canadian coins, the ones with special sections on dollars and half dollars, and...
Littleton still sells them. Probably other places too. https://www.littletoncoin.com/shop/search?searchTerm=gold%2520plated%2520quarter
Yeah, mine showed arrived at post office and then out for delivery only 11 minutes apart. There's no evidence that it ever left the distribution...
Nevermind, I found it. https://www.omsa.org/files/jomsa_arch/Splits/2000/17417_JOMSA_Vol51_2_37.pdf "All the medallions that the author has...
USPS tracking is so wonky. It showed "arrived at distribution center" two days ago and nothing since then. Been watching it like a hawk. Suddenly...
I never thought of this as exonumia but I guess it qualifies. I didn't make the top 10 in high school so this was some sort of consolation prize...
Consider the possibility that one side has been copper plated (poorly) in order to fake a missing clad error, or just messing around. Not sure how...
I would go cheap and send it to ANACS (or ICG?). Authentication would be the priority for me and not whose slab it's in. The date and MM look a...
Sure, it's just a nitpick thing. Not that big of a deal. But you can't easily tell what's a minor rotation when neither side is accurately...
It also bugs me when they can't orient the coin properly in the holder. Almost every slabbed dime I own is off like this, because they're just...
Yeah I'd ask for a free reholder. It would bother me too.
Have you posted about this on the NGC forum? They won’t ban you like PCGS would.
All the same but different. In 1900, there were three obverse hub types and two reverse types. I/II [ATTACH] I/III [ATTACH] II/III [ATTACH]...
I looked that up too and it made me chuckle. This coin meets their rigorous market standards, as opposed to all the other 1652 NE threepence to...
Quite a swing in value there. You can't always believe what the TPG says. I looked up the variety and examined the NGC image, and it is a DDO,...
And like craps, you always hear about how much someone won and almost never about how much they lost. People who crapped out on FunBox - post your...
Don't forget he also did the Liberty Head nickels. Barber also did the obverse on this one (Morgan did the reverse). [ATTACH]30+ medals,...
I thought it would go a lot higher. Seems like there wasn't much hype. No major news site ran an article that I can find. Compare that with the...
I'm thinking the same. Poorly "reprocessed" and they laid the plating on too thick. I noticed the big chunk of whatever between E and T. [ATTACH]
Good guess. Sold for $2.1M, $2.52M with BP. It struggled to get above $2M with two bidders left. Took 12 minutes to finally hammer. I wonder if it...
