Is there an easy way to distinguish between the two types of 1864 cent? Going through my late father-in-law's unsorted grab bag, I think I've...
Is there a database of English merchant countermarks from the early 19th century? I recently picked up this rough example with a beautifully clear...
I'm still learning to grade these & think the bullion shop I saw this at has an AU price on a VF coin. What do you think is a fair grade & price...
I don't go out of my way to buy slabbed coins, but I do occasionally purchase coins that are in slabs. Along the way, I've started adding these...
