The photo shown above is the raw 1886 P with the VAM 1-C attribution. It might even be the 3+3 variety, (which is still the same VAM) That's way...
That Peace in the OGH is purdy! I know it's just plastic, but I love the old green holders. What years did they use those?
As mentioned, stock photos (which will always be the best example they could find). Beware the big companies that buy and sell in bulk. If it...
This year I've slowed down the mission to get a nearly full Morgan set to let my wallet catch it's breath. I've about decided a 1893 S isn't in...
And as Conders added, they didn't even get the mint part right.o_O
I have not read this entire thread, but I have purchased both PCGS and NGC slabs and then sent the slab to VSS and the turnaround is lightning...
How can you tell a dateless 1916 from a type I 1917? I didn't know the design was different,
It was a poor attempt all around. Those Chinese sellers hocking 1893S Morgans for $25 or best offer at least take better photographs. :p
Thank you sir. This is one great place to learn good information.
I think I understand. You look for deep discounts that go unnoticed otherwise. That's where the $ is made. I'm not looking to sell anything yet,...
Lazy maybe? It's a decent benchmark. I know it's not wholesale. How often is Graysheet updated? The LCS'ers still pull out a crusty old fleabitten...
You really shouldn't ask me that. I am utterly astonished at some of the darts thrown at the board by all the TPGs. It's not UNC, that's all I...
1884S doesn't even have a single Top 100 VAM. I think it's all about the condition, and it's a huge variable.
Here is a link if still active. I think it's what it's graded at if not lower. Click the arrows to get rid of the "sold" restricted views. There...
Saw a coin on the fleaBay, 1884S, coin with huge jumps in value based on conditional rarity. Coin was graded PCGS AU55. Coin hammered for about...
A "cruel mistress" is a figurative expression referring to something that is initially alluring and desirable but ultimately causes pain and...
If you have been to a post office before in an urban area, they as a group are the most useless slugs that ever left a trail behind them. It's not...
Completing a set of SLQs in any kind of condition is a tough and cruel mistress. I thought about doing it and then went..........nah.........:p
I've got quite a few of these sovereigns. I wish more people on the forum knew more about them. Even dealers are kind of reluctant to comment on...
:p No. I thought that was obvious. :D
