Get a coin which you know is near/far and compare.
I think that is the only use of slabs.
Nice coins!
It isn't F-12...(low fine), but a rather higher piece, F-15 to 20....
This is from a British coin dealer (grade F, £65). I dunno....I know it is rare, but what are the catalougue prices ?
I always keep a 1994 1p coin in my pocket. It started MS , it is now AU...hmm....it will take a long time to get to F !
Sounds nice !
What a pity...you could have got some very fashionable RED toning on that coin !
My faveriote US coin design is the flowing hair dollar....most of the modern ones are just plain ugly, excluding the barber half.
WOW ! What an amazing waste of money for a bit of 94 year old nickel. Couldn't they have bought some medieval gold, or at least something older....
My felt trays have given my 1816 UK sixpence wonderful light rainbow toning in the legend...
WTH ? Can't you see the wear all around liberty and the reverse shield ??
We should have a John Adams quarter...
If you find one in MS-67 to 70 it is worth mega bucks.
1823 is a real problem date, and although there is not much intrest in it, it is really hard to find.
I've been offered an 1864 L on ribbon cent (decent F grade, don't have pictures) for $130. Decent price ?
Really ? How much would a 1697 reale be worth in GF ?
Nice crown !
I think they have thought up a way of opening the holder at the back, and changing the coin...
XF-40 ? VF-35? Decent coin, but I can see wear on liberty's body, and loss of detail around the reverse shield
