Let's give sellers credit when it is due. Not dealers in raw coins, selling stuff that has been shaken and baked. But those who have worked hard...
Yes, it probably will. If it grades cleanly. Lance.
Welcome! Lincoln cents are probably the most collected series in the world. It's a very fun way to get started. But you'd be surprised how...
Bullet item #2. Lance.
Nice, Charmy. We always appreciate and enjoy your reports. I missed the show...work interfered again. But your posts help ease the pain. Nice...
The halogen flood sells for just under $9 at Amazon. Look around for the halogena. Here's one that is much like the above one for around $5. Lance.
First, resist the urge to do anything. After you spend a little time back at this hobby you will learn what is safe and what is not, what is a...
These will screw into an ordinary light socket. You can also buy GE edison flood bulbs (PAR bulbs) in different wattage, like the 75w at the...

I get the best results with halogen. I've tried just about everything, from LED's and flourescent to GE Reveal bulbs and incandescents. CFL's are...
Yikes! Never do this. You will damage the original mint surface, guaranteed. You may not see it but under magnification it will be clear. Lance.
Then you did very well! I wish my granddaddy had done something like that for me! Lance.
Magnificent! Very handsome. Lance.
A plain old D-SLR with a long macro lens (180mm) and a copy stand to keep things steady. And some good post-processing Mac software. Thanks! Lance.
This is an interesting thread. There are two primary issues: authenticity and surface condition. I think the coin has been cleaned and this will...
I picked up this in an ebay auction. The seller didn't mention the overdate, the photos were poor but I sensed something nice and sprang for it....
Hmmm...common circulated coins in an everyday holder put out by a private firm with no significant heritage. What's the point of a COA, anyway?...
Thanks, DMiller, but I'm really small potatoes. The registry curve takes a steep climb as you get near the top. I'm a long way off. Plus, mine's...
