Well said, for a second, you turned into quite the business man/collector. Congratulations on the sale, glad to say it sounds like it went smoothly.
Everything is so chunky on that coin, the fonts, date, even Lincoln put on a few pounds. I'm afraid to say it's a genuine counterfeit.
It's really to collect in the long term with this hobby. I originally started out working on my type set. Which is actually a useful tool to...
The pictures the seller took are not that great. But I would have to say that is definitely a gouge and not a crack. Just my quick general...
Nice ATB chunk, I'm actually looking forward to the Hawaii volcanoes model. Will probably end up buying 2 or 3 of those bad boys.
Nice notes aside, I think the real winner here is you were actually able to take photos at the bank. Really amazing stuff Travis!
Beautiful rusty toning on that Bella.
I hope you don't get investment advice from the first guy, this is zinc rot like Rick pointed out.
Mine would have to be Gettysburg, the design is synonymous with that particular event during the civil war era. The designers did a good job...
I don't know why, but I think you should throw it up on eBay. I agree some on what the rest of the guys are saying. But I have this feeling that...
I was thinking environmental myself. Looks like something found on the beach, salt water eats away at copper over time.
I could see some of this hitting the open market as "shipwreck" pieces for double the asking price. As great of a find this is, somewhere,...
I went for a 67 on this one. From what I gathered the luster is nice with nil distracting marks. I'll go out on a limb and think NGC would go 67...
Ouch, someone put some elbow grease into those pieces. Especially the CC dollars.
I like this one too, which each passing day I grow fonder of the small head notes. You should be able to get a little more than face for this one,...
Doug hit the nail on the head. There's no stopping dealers from pricing their coins in accordance with everyone else. A couple points to...
Hey Boston, I usually frequent used bookstores here in the bay area. I'll keep my eyes peeled for one and I'll let you. I have one already, so I...
I like it because it's not the current "colorized" note, it's a relatively low serial. However, because of the slight tear on the bottom, it's a...
What does "Simply Unavailable" mean? Kind of a contradiction seeing as how it's for sale and is "available". You're a kooky nut sometimes Ruben.
Either a slabbed 1839-O Bust Half, something like an AU grade. Or an MS65 Antietam Commem, ideally with a CAC bean already on there.
Separate names with a comma.
