If you've been to shows, you've seen that there are so many MS65s and 66 38-D's around -- they clearly do not move quickly because there are so...
I am okay with bringing back Walking Liberty. A few of the other Liberty's looked a little too much like Leroy Liberty.:whistle:
Photobucket works. Now, you got to get your shadow out of the photos! That is a Type 2 San Francisco but I can't read the date from these photos.
I happened to hear this dealer state at a show that he had little use for CAC. He has some nice coins in his inventory but I have never bought...
Well, I just checked the final price and it does seem a bit extremem. I like the obverse and assume that the bidders believed it was still market...
I like the second scan a lot better -- looks like you got a nice addition. Interesting how strike or wear on reverse is so uneven but knowing...
I keep two desiccants in my SDB. I have had the SDB about three years now and check the coins for changes every few months. No problems to date....
Kanga, that FE looks nicer than 63 to me. That coin has a great design. I think you did well -- enjoy them.
Glad the thread was resurrected -- I missed it the first time. Two very nice 18-S EF coins.
Conder Great post and information. Thanks for adding this.
I like the Antietam. Not sure I see that "gunk" that TomB sees -- maybe a spot but I can't tell that it is PVC. I think it's better than a...

I think it is pretty clear from the following that PCGS will consider past grades before assigning a new grade: "All that is for certain is that...
I think those are two nice ones. I'll say MS66 for the Iowa and MS65 for the Washington Carver. I do wonder about those curving parallel lines...
CoinFacts can give you auction prices for an individual coin going back to the nineties for all the major auction houses. I think it's a great...
What Doug points out is correct, but I remember when I read it, thinking that PCGS (or any TPG) is never going to admit that once a coin is...
It's harder to see the lines on the new photo, whether it's counting wheel or die polish, making me think it all the more likely the coin would...
In theory, a coin should CAC more readily than it should get a +. This is because CAC stickers a little less than 50 percent of the coins it...
I would have to say I'm with Leadfoot on this one. Both of you know a lot more about 18th century coinage than me, since I collect Buffalos and...
