I just purchased a lot in which this coin was shown as being a part of it. This one seems to have the diagnostics of a 1916, though it is really...
Yes, I just wanted some unbiased opinions. ANACS said XF-40 details "scratched" net VF-30. The scratch referred to is the small one by the nose,...
thanks taxidermist, and thanks all for your comments. Do they have a mintage number?
W true, they usually sell between 10-20, but I've seen more than 1 go for 50+.
WOW! Well, they obviously have less than $10 gold in each one. That's a pretty good gig, $6 each and then $50 a pop on ebay.:rollling::(
Does it really have $10 worth of gold in it(or about a quarter gram)?? I would have thought that the amount of gold on that bar was practically...
I've always wanted a big escudo coin to remind me of pirate treasure!!!:smile Finally got one! Grade/value opinions?? Also, does anyone know the...
Ok, over the last year or so, I have noticed that "Proof" AGEs consistently sell for nearly DOUBLE melt value? Why is this? To me, an 80% premium...
I have been an avid coin collector for a while, but I sprung at a chance for a nice variety silver bullion lot. It was put in the (gold) section...
That's another good point!
The problem is that currently the market places a large premium on 70s(or at least PCGS 70s). Paying the premium is a big risk imo, since it is...
First off, WELCOME TO THE FORUMS!! My opinion is to stay away from the MS/PF 70 craze and the premiums. Bullion should be purchased close to melt,...
umm....the Dansco 7070 type set gold page would be more valuable on it's own than a set of 1/10 ounce AGEs, so I don't agree with your logic here....
Congrats! That is a heck of an acquisition!! It looks really good!
Here is another example. Another interesting note is that PCGS and ANACS will slab dateless coins if they can establish the year of the coin by...
Wow, I had no idea this thread would start such a commotion! Dipped or not, the coin has strong cartwheel luster, a light tone and is not...
Thanks for the input all. I agree with Tom in that I believe the coin is uncleaned. There are no hairlines and substantial luster remains....
Grabbed off the bay for $43. What would you grade?
This is absolutely ridiculous. Your coin is not worth anywhere near $12,000,000; and your auction is of the type that knowlegable numismatists...
got her today! here she is in all of her fairness!
