As usual, excuse my photography. Mine never comes out - especially for capturing the finer points of coins. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I've had a long dry spell around here - which has led to numerous purchases of sterling silverwear, jewelry and weird stuff - but today the local...
This could be part of it, I think it's just that the DOW has been going sideways for the last 2 years. I got out last year at this time while it...
Investors moving into bonds and metals recently. It appears that "sell in May and go away" is starting to come to fruition. Ending of a bull...
I'm envisioning Pokemon battle style with slabbed coins. [MEDIA]
I seriously doubt it, they just charge you whatever the standard fee is for that coin. If you send in a CC double eagle under the "special" they...
We're all sorry that we offend you by using a different set of relative criteria - that puts you so far above us for not collecting what you like....
You should have some idea of the value of what you are sending in - and the potential grade.
I came across an opportunity to buy one of those in Nevada last year. He insisted it was real, and wanted $300 (what a bargain!). When it all...
I needed that laugh!!! I'm picturing the late-night infomercial. "The Gerald Ford Commemorative $1.38 coin -pressed in fine aluminum by the...
Genuine - details/ungradable by PCGS. I think I will send it to ANACS someday - but Photograde says it's somewhere around F12-VF20. There are...

The answer is - Maybe! But I don't think it will for a long long time. I'll either be very right - and silver will go past $18 this year...
Her face is a bit scratched from cleaning. It's got lines in it. It may go to ANACS for a technical grade this summer. For now - my nickel...
So to end the drama, it's marked "ungradable" by PCGS - Genuine. By photograde it's a 15 to 20 with a soft reverse. I'm guessing it would get a...
That's a very stunning Ike! I was looking at my collection today. That is by far an impressive strike.
So wouldn't ya know it. Been going to the LCS for the last year once a month looking for a few select coins, the one time I finally buy my 1885...
Rarity is relative to a given population. By any definition - the 1889-CC at a mintage of 350k is rare compared to the 1881-S at 12.7million....
Too much, but I wanted one and it was the least ugly coin I found for my budget of under $400. I sent it into ANACS last month and it came back...
