I sold most of mine but still have 8 Double Eagles, 3 Eagles, 3 Half Eagles, 2 Quarter Eagles and 2 Gold Dollars. I wish I had kept more!
Never a problem with Registered Mail and PCGS. Always smooth. Your coin looks like EF Details to me but might grade problem-free after...
Looks like bullion to me. The premium over melt would be 2%-3% IMHO.
For that price, you can't go wrong. It's a $5,000 coin if problem-free and looks AU to me. The reverse is weakly struck but the obverse detail...
Remember that PCGS no longer guarantees color. If any of these coins "turns" Red-Brown, the owner has lost thousands of dollars. Many old copper...
Yes, before the $22+ run up I was thinking $150 would get you one. Now? Could be close to $200. It really depends on the mint's bullion...
Barring a big run up today (Wednesday), the price will stay in $1300-$1349.99 range where it was last week. Kitco publishes the London PM Fix on...
They will only be sold through the Mint's "authorized bullion distributors". APMEX has had them showing on their website for months but no...
I believe a lot of the ugliness in this thread is that some people consider a VF coin 'worn' while others of us consider VF too nice a coin to...
OMG - Call the Secret Service! I've got bunches of under-weight junk Barbers laying around. Anything under VF condtion is underweight. Down in...
Here's the proof. Two Barber dimes and a copper Lincoln cent. The Barbers should weigh 2.5g. The one that's G04 weighs 2.15 or 14% under...
If it's worn nearly slick, like many junk Barbers and SLQ are, then it's well under specified weight. Friction and wear cause any metal to lose...
"Now I will go one further. Do this - find all of the VF & F coins that you can, from any source. I think you and everyone else here will have to...
I'm amazed an Admin with that many posts doesn't use a gram scale and weigh a few worn pieces. Grab any AG3 or G04 SLQ and weigh it, then compare...
I've weighed hundreds of coins over the years and they do lose weight from wear. A 2002 GAE is not a good example. Weigh a few well worn SLQ on...
Greysheet Bid is $50 in VF and your coin looks VF+ to me so I say: "Good Deal".
I see the realized price of $1600. I take it that does not incude the Buyer's Premium? The BP and S&H would take it close to $1900.
Looks around AU50 to me and worth roughly $50. The second set of photos are great!
If it's in the Proof 70 column then it means slabbed. There's no other way to sell it as a 70. Since the mint starting selling GAE proofs again,...
At today's prices, that is a good deal. $23.50 each is as cheap as you can get these days.
