From the picture, great eye appeal, I'd love to have it in my collection. Buy the slabs from Amos and slab it yourself.
I collect Kennedy Halves. I just bought two PCGS slabbed Kennedys with very well know varieties- The 1964 Proof DDO and the 1964 Proof TDO....
So you honestly believe that a "First Day of Issue" is not a marketing ploy (it does cost extra to get that label). I believe in Capitalism and a...
If I send In a Kennedy Half and say I want it certified and graded as a accented hair, they charge extra. There's no research, they know what an...
If you have a Morgan Dollar certified by PCGS and it is a VAM they don't put that on the label unless you pay extra. If you have a Kennedy Half...
PCGS won't even put a special designation on their slabs unless you pay extra. Now that's nerve.
Keep in mind, I and probably you, have access to other ways of buying coins and currency. There are 6 coin shops in my town and there are several...
I have had 1,128 transactions on eBay, primarily as a Buyer, and in all those transactions over many years, I have never had to leave a negative...
Jeez, I collect coins because I like to. I can't even attempt to over analysis why, I just enjoy the hobby. By the way, buy the coin, not the...
I'll never be able to get a 1916 Liberty Standing Quarter (full Head), because of the cost, but I just ordered from Moonlight Mint (Daniel Carr)...
Everyone has their own standards, there's a Franklin collector in our club that if a bag mark crosses the bell lines he doesn't consider them full...
How about the coin that was most commonly used in Colonial Times: the Spanish Pillar (Pieces of Eight, eight reales, Spanish Milled Dollar, etc.)
There are nice people out there and "coin people" seem to be in that category. A friend and fellow Vietnam Vet and coin club member passed away...
All paper notes will grade, but judging from the condition of your note, it will probably cost more to grade it than it is worth.
I don't think the major TPG Services can really tell if a coin has been submitted before unless it has a distinguishing mark, such as bag marks on...
Again, if it's a common coin, I wouldn't send it in, but if it's a rare coin, I'm more interested in it being authenticated, than graded. I have...
To the best of my knowledge, to cross over you have to send PCGS the coin IN the NGC slab and Vice-versa. [There are plenty of coins that are...
TPG services are in the market to make money. They'll put fancy labels on their slabs, they'll make outrageous claims, such as First Day...
I would never crack open a PCGS, NGC, or ANACS slab, because of their guarantee of authenticity. A wise person told me that if I want to complete...
Isn't it amazing how coin collecting has changed? When I was a kid, I had a paper route and used to check the money I collected once a week from...
