You need to get a reloading scale like a Winstead Peters or something. You pay for accuracy. Then you need to buy a precision weight set to...
I'm in for a reverse proof set. As the date nears the regular proofs are tempting me now. No interest in the uncirculated. I bought...
The thing is these letters are recessed in the die it could be whatever foreign material was in the recesses when yours was made was starting to...
Yeah be ready for this crap again. Congress was “supposed to” be reviewing this level this year to adjust it back up to something a little more...
I was going to say maybe a foreign substance got into the recesses of the die when that one was made but it'd be nearly impossible for both of...
I heard the CEO of Apmex talking on a podcast once. Might have been the Coinshow podcast with Mike and Matt (forum members here) but can't...
“Cointalk Self Proclaimed VIP”. I had to come up with something for that line. Came up with it years ago. You’re the first one that’s asked. I...
Well said. In essence, a quick sale of anything will yield least value back. If you take the time to advertise anything you should get the...
Ok, time for show and tell. This arrived from the other side of the World today. I was surprised it only took about 11 days. It looks...
Yeah this isn't even close. Even if all the steps were full and perfect the one contact mark above the T would ruin it. You can't have that....
I'd imagine it's difficult to keep producing a publication with a fresh perspective on any single topic over a long period of time. We're seeing...
Hmmm. Doesn't seem like they'd be getting the most out of the system. From the website: "Another benefit for the hobby is that if a PCGS...
I'm going to quote myself here and post an interesting update straight from the NGC boards from NGC support. Found it to be interesting....
Ok so as an "NGC guy" that only really knows what a PCGS slab looks like, not of their business, I was reading on their website about Secure Plus....
I looked it up and says it is an 1883-CC that is currently in someone's registry set.
I haven't read thread but will say grade is a ***FAKE***. I have a Morgan set going and have evaluated many, including 83-CCs lately as I need...
Kind of lame to get the families hopes up like that. Nobody that actually had to acquire coins of that value would store them in that manner...
Like I said, look at the last date updated beneath the date of the coin. Some haven't been updated in years. Sometimes it'll go in your favor...
If you notice on NGC's price guide, they list dates last updated underneath the coin on each row now. Some are within the week, some haven't...
This is a good observation though impossible to quantify. How many have been sent in just for re-holder with the same serial number re-used?...
Separate names with a comma.
