Most of the historical information is accurate and informative, but the identification leaves something to be desired. Better to rely on the...
I'd like to agree with you - I kind of see it. But in all practicality, there's no way that could be represented as a 1922 with that much wear on...
I think this has potential - I would note, however, that I see two issues: 1) Does the type even exist? This would involve a lot of searching for...
I hate to even entertain this further, but your other roommate's dad better be a lawyer. If you image other people's coins without their express...
I like the design of the gold, but not $1650 like. I might be a buyer for a silver.
That's the problem with this series for me. You could have told me it was MS65 or that it was G06, and I'd say "oh, okay" to either.
I agree there is something amiss. I don't like the rim on the 32. Both seem to have overly porous surfaces. I'd keep looking.
My gut tells me it's the off metal WWII era Lincolns. Simpson's all were $40k plus, if I remember correctly.

I'm in Columbus - we should look each other up next CONA show!
I guess what I mean is, what about the coin makes it a first strike? I'm familiar with the First Strike designation used by PCGS, but that has to...
I'd say that Gaudens is VG at best. Thank goodness it's gold, or you wouldn't even have melt to fall back on.
Good eyes!
I'm not sure what you're seeing it looking for with these - just a perfect die state?
Brian Greer occasionally has early dollars (a quick check of his inventory shows one), and it rotates with some regularity.
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] These two just posted at PCGS - the top, a 1981 Bulgaria 2 Leva proof, came back PR67DC. The bottom, a 2016 Cook Islands $5,...
The "sharpened tail" Buffalo? [emoji2]
To me it looks like the detail may have been fixed on the die.
My first stop was to L&C Coins, since they have BU rolls for sale. No 1979-P, but late 70s and early 80s are $8-12/roll.
