This was probably the biggest mechanical error I ever had... I initially thought I might have scored a HUGE upgrade on one of my coins I submitted...
I like IHC proofs, but I think I like a nice red mint state a little better: [IMG][IMG] Next play, any Indian Head Cent or any 1908.
I like the Barber Nickels too: [img]
I was looking at my Liberty sub-set again earlier this week when I was at the bank and I still can't decide whether I like the proofs or the...
The tail of the 9 in a 19XX Indian Head Cent looping around is pretty common, especially when a coin is circulated and the date gets flattened a...
Went to Goldberg and Heritage auction lot viewings on Sunday... lots of really neat coins going for sale in the Long Beach auctions... should be...
I've seen about the same number of these errors called "mechanical errors" by both PCGS and NGC. It is unfortunate when it happens, but as others...

Anyone else going to the show?? I am. Looks to be a pretty decent show. Lots of dealers and collectors are feeling good after the apparently...
The way I see it, the artist is a genius! It wasn't his money. The article says he got a grant of $20,000 to do the artwork. So instead of...
Looks pretty nice for a 64BN, well done!
I'm in!!!!! :)
I know I posted one of these not too long ago in this thread, but I recently acquired the other two and haven't shown them before. My pics of...
I checked a few coins and i probably won't use it again. I subscribe to PCGS CoinFacts and the information there is just much more complete...
