Please, please, please tell me you're kidding... you ARE kidding, right? You wouldn't polish a beautiful lady, now, would you?:confused: He...
I strongly recommend NOT cleaning it at all with anything. The buzzards at the grading services ring a bell and are issued a golden brownie point...
And WELCOME to the forum, onlysdad! Interesting username.
I dunno. I've had Morgans come back body-bagged ("damaged") with rim dings that I thought were just circulation marks. But, until onlysdad...
I've also taken advantage of the above, but very carefully since such a seller could cause me a lot of trouble through his ignorance. I'll look at...
From Peter, Paul, and Mary: If you haven't got a penny, A ha'penny will do. If you haven't got a ha'penny, Then God bless you.
We used to sing a song at Scout Camp, "I've Got Sixpence": I've got sixpence, jolly jolly sixpence. I've got sixpence to last me all my life....
That's the one except mine is Mint State (/brag). I got it in the Americal Officer's Club hot off the press and, being a coin collector even then,...
Probably not unless it's in pristine uncirculated just-off-the-press condition. They minted too many millions or billions to be scarce. There's...
I would be suspect of the NNC-graded coin if for no other reason than it is from NNC. It also illustrates a problem I have with eBay coin...
It gets weirder the more I dig into it. I saved the auction when the buyer clicked on Buy It Now on 24 December. On 29 Dec, the seller posted...
I have a few of these from various units from when I was in Vietnam. They were used for NCO and Officer's Clubs slot machines. I don't have the...
I'm gonna stick my neck out like I usually do so as to let me get my head chopped off and handed to me, but my first impression from the photo was...
Well, they've already been sold once on eBay (last month), but I guess the buyer backed out. I finally sat down and, using the PCGS price guide,...
He sold this collection last month in a Buy It Now sale after listing it numerous times. Evidently the deal fell through. I think he uses it as a...
That's it! I am an avid fly-tyer and fly fisherman. We must have met at some time along a cool bubbling trout-filled stream in Scotland. :rolleyes:
Possibly in one of my previous incarnations, maybe when I was Ben Franklin. Were you my apprentice? If so, you picked a fine mentor!<g>
You are correct: coins graded MS-70 are few and far between. There are those of us who consider that there is no such thing as a "perfect" coin...
Thatsa fact! You might enjoy one of my online groups in which a couple guys swear that not only did Franklin Roosevelt know about Pearl Harbor in...
Kyra/Rachel, pardon me for asking, but in what type of business are you that you find so many old coins? It's been decades since I've found any...
