I did a bit of investigation and note that the TPGs, PCGS and NGC have graded very few of these and the higher graded specimens look to have been...
Does this count? 1956 Egypt 50 Piasters Commemorates freedom from Britain (in a way). I believe it a specimen but since no specimens known was...
IMHO, always a problem when something bucks up against common sense.... "Run, Forrest, run"!
Ah, really like them too. The quarter went MS64 and the half MS63. Actually as both were toned the higher surfaces oxidized by contact (ie leg,...
Just to share a couple of piece bought raw "across the Pond" and just back from PCGS. These looked nice and picked them up, thinking them worthy...
This came back today from PCGS MS67!!! S[IMG]
Yes, Capitol plastics - I custom ordered it 12 years ago. The pictures below are through the plastic “Perspex” and seem duller than in-hand with...
Will send tomorrow. The 1920 and 1921 are top notch & a couple others also. Well almost all.
I put this collection of halfcrowns together over many years. They would likely slab very high as these were carefully selected and curated. I...

[ATTACH] BTW, if you can find this coin at what Numismaster (NGC) quotes for value, BUY IT!!!!!!!! LOL
The first was hard to photograph but bought from a dealer in New York named Frank Shaskan (sp?) over 20 years ago. In hand it is wonderfully PL...
Ah yes I bought the 1848 Godless proof Florin from Spink (like the 1849 sort of) many years ago & have several other proofs. HOWEVER mint state...
That is a die crack at 3 o'clock reverse. I love this series and only regret that there are some real "stoppers" - the 1851 in proof only is...
A really nice coin, even better in hand that is scarce and probably as nice as you’ll see: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Sorry about the lint on holder & low...
