I am going to re-grade. I don't believe it was cleaned. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
MS 64, I'd pay up to 500. But then again, I am betting it could go for more. AU 55 is 180.00 or so.
I'd love to see those!
I even took it to one of my LCS's and he was surprised at the details grade too. He couldn't see a cleaning either. I think I'll give it another...
I specifically told him I was going to send it in, and it looked like a great raw piece. I didn't pick up the cleaning with my loupe.
Here are some more coins I sent in to get graded. Some are part of my "12" type set. I thought the 1912 S Liberty Nickel was at least an F 12....
I sent this in to NGC, certain it would grade at least XF. To my suprise, and dismay, it came back AU Details, Improperly Cleaned. I am...
I got my MOD set back from NGC today. Here are the grades. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Modern casinos don't use halves. Though they do get them from the general public, which they dump at their banks. One casino I worked at got...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] I just got my two D.C. 1916 Barber pieces, and on the reverse of both coins, between the A and the T in STATES, is a very...
I go to the gas station to get customer wrapped rolls. They are happy to give them to me.
Heavens no. We really don't need a whole reverse proof set. Next it will be the deluxe limited edition RP set. What's next the new U.S. Mint...
I hope they don't do RP's of the Merc, SLQ and WLH. Mint them in 90% silver, like the old days. Offer all three in a set and individually....
Well, there is some truth to that. Finding a good dealer in the D.C./Maryland area is difficult. I find myself buying from online sources for...
Mine were shipped out this week. I'll post a few pics when I get them. Don't know if I'll get them slabbed. Most likely not. I like the Barber...
I've heard many stories from people who had a certain coin who thought it was big money, and turned out it wasn't. A guy I know, he tried telling...
I was attempting to make a joke. a real silver round with the word copy on it, or some sort of design, using the word copy. Not a copy of...
It would be funny if Mr. Carr ended up designing and minting a token with the word "Copy" for the naysayers. It would probably sell out, as his...
I recently saw an ebay auction sell a raw 1912 D Mint state barber half for 1300. I'm all for taking chances, but that's MOON MONEY for a raw...
I am still waiting to get the set I sent in back from NGC. The other set is in the OGP. I was considering selling my ungraded set. But undecided.
