I have to agree that twenty-five years ago, it would have probably been a grade lower, but today I'm going with a F-12. I do like the old ANA...
I'm looking for someone to second this, but I'm going to give it a grade of PF-67.
My local dealer does not make an offer on slabbed bullion coins, because he generally knows the guy got hosed on TV when he purchased them. Being...
I have a rule on ebay: NEVER buy from a seller that has "L@@K" in the listing.
I would be cautious on ebay when buying any silver dollar when it comes to counterfeits. Even common date Morgans are being produced in China. And...
With the amount of Morgans that were melted over the years, and the number that are ruined by AT (and other alterations), I can't help but think...
In response to your post, I would have a problem with a dealer that gave someone the big story that the coin they are trying to sell them is not...

I'm a second generation collector, but definately more serious than my father was. My wife deals with my collecting habits, but might change her...
Better yet, teach her how to cherry pick. My wife came home a few weeks ago with six wheat cents, a merc dime, and two Ikes. (She does not collect...
Talk to anyone who has been through a flood. Coin holders from the TPGs are neither water tight or air tight. Your best defense is to keep all...
I love the Dansco albums, and hope that my purchase of central air this year will keep my coins from toning also. All this just to protect my...
Medoraman makes a good point, especially if you are looking for one particular coin in the upper end of your budget. There could be six at the...
I'd personally like to see the anniversary Kennedy be released in 2014, and then a completely new design. We need to see what our mint artists and...
