No, finding this one was hard enough. It seems like the third party graders are over grading these coins now. I hunted all over this year's...
Okay, $46 is okay for what it is. If you had paid $100, that would have been too much. To explain the color of these coins to those who are not...
The strike and the design details are good, but the rim, especially on the obverse, and the color is not. For circulated pieces, I look for coins...
Back when I collected a set of Flying Eagle and Indian Cents the first time, in the 1960s, there was an 1869 over 8 spot in the album. About 40...
The grey toning on this denarius of Caracalla attracted me at the Summer FUN Show. When I had a chance to study it, I found that a Roman god I had...
If the coin is worth more than several hundred dollars, certification is built into the price. The raw price is something under that. Even if you...
Here is an 1838 large cent which PCGS graded AU-58. [ATTACH] This 1839 is graded MS-63, Brown. You need to have luster in the fields to make...
I’m not sure it was smallest show I have attended, but it was the worst. A stamp dealer put on a show. In the middle of the show, this bozo...
It looks like a “mint error” to me that’s worth tens of thousands of dollars. :p:eek: And yes, many of us have answered those posts about parking...
I have thought that these coins needed to have denomination on them to be good, like “1 dol” or “1/2 dol.” The pieces with a bear or “Eureka” on...
It looks like a planchet defect to me. As such, I don’t think you would recoup the costs of certification and shipping.
Here is a certified example. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
The toning on these coins is created by a chemical reaction. Is the coin stable or not? No one really knowns. Copper is the most reactive of three...
It is opinion. I do not like these neon toned cents at all. That is my opinion, and I am entitled to my opinion. You should be happy about that....
There is something not right about this piece. The dentiles don’t look right. The cleaning obvious, but this general look is the type of thing you...
Wow! That is only graded AU-55! It's undergraded by the three points to AU-58 for sure. The strike is really nice. Many have weak tail feathers.
He means the quality. I opened a bank sealed roll of 1963-D half dollars, and could not find one coin that was better than MS-63. There was only...
I will be there for the duration. I will give a seminar on forming a date set of cents from 1793 to date on Friday at 2:30. I will also have an...
I bought this one a few years ago. It was a leftover everyone had passed on from a Heritage auction, so I probably overpaid. Still it grabbed my...
I would never clean the coin in the OP. It looks fine just as it is. Remember, the coin IS MADE OF the oxidized medal. If you take that away, a...
