Hi & thanks for the info ToughCOINS Yes, I know that the coins are counterfeits. My question is: What reason did the seller give for not...
Clarify please.
Never find a coin like that in a 62 slab today. They were probably all broken out and resubmitted in the likely hope of getting a higher grade....
Very interesting article. It shows the role that the silver coins played in the local economies. Strange that these once very common coins would...
To clarify, I have noticed the color change at the knee, however, haven't seen any trace of metal disturbance or friction there. The color change...
I'll make a wild stab at the grade. If there is an old cleaning that is not always discernable from a photo. Assuming there isn't, I like ms-63...
I think it's a lion. Historically these critters have been depicted munching on things and the Lion characteristically stood for Britain. If I...
I'd be curious to know the slab grade of your 1866 Indian. I too like copper {bronze} and am always trying to improve my grading skills of these...
Wow, that is an attractive Barber half. I've spent years, decades, generations, looking for such a nicely graded Barber on-line but none are ever...
Not being one to be deterred, I'll throw in my own guess on grades. The fields on the $20 are amazingly clean. Were the coin original, I'd guess...
Wrong type of roll. Last year or maybe it was in 2020 I actually found a British Large penny (I think it was 1920) in VF condition in a roll of...
Congratulations! It's a really nice & well researched collection. You can also add the appellation "Most Creative Costume Set".
You really should do a video of the edge while rotating the coin thru the full 360 degrees. Try to get the bank people to rotate the coin while...
Just photo'd this today. My own 2 pence worth. Don't really specialize in pennies but could also use the old '97 cartwheel in unc.[ATTACH] This...
I like #2 as the face looks a little more mark-free. Both are extremely nice pieces. Also the exact grade is hard to determine from one pix...
It is a small mark obv. Don't know exactly what the deal is with the black coloring over it. I originally went for 65 then changed it to 64 over...
I saw a Karl Goetz medal about the same topic. It shows the German Peace proposals being debated & rejected in Parliament.
Very nice. Would you happen to have the weight, fineness, & diameter?
What a stunning taler & half taler. It looks like a medal and may as well be one with a mintage of only 200 pcs. On the death of Fritz, one...
As mentioned elsewhere I tried to buy my 1st Wildman taler. I bid around $1300 but it went for over $1,800 out of Europe. Then I bid on a common...
