Not a collector of any of these series but it sure looks like you did well. I do fear the Flying Eagle is cleaned. St. Gaudens I'll say MS64....
Whoops, not only are you right but people have paid that much for cleaned versions of this coin numerous times at Heritage, looking at the...
Well I do agree that the later Walkers are graded a little tighter than the ones from the teens and twenties. But based on the photos, I suspect...
But you might not have to pay XF40 price for it. Whizzing eliminates 95 percent of collectors who won't buy messed-with coins. I agree it looks...
Worth a bit over face value with the dent and pit marks that are evident despite the lousy photo. I realize this a hole filler if you are...
I would be careful about looking at the Heritage realized prices as your only guide to prices as well. I think the PCGS Auction Prices realized...
Nice exchange of information. The Matron Heads are great looking coins. And your photo taking is great. Thanks for sharing.
PCGS price guide might be a terrible place to price this since it's in an NGC holder but they have PR 69 CAM at $80 and $45 in PR 68 so it seems...
Charmy I hope you are right about the ANA show. I'm on the East Coast and won't be there but I am quite underwhelmed by the auction offerings in...
We need Lehigh and his materials science background on this one. I have to assume that they both use the same type of plastic. Did a Google...
I like a number of the AU58's you have shown and this is another one. I don't know a thing about half cents but I do wonder if the spot on the...
The thing you hear often is it's too close to the quarter in size. Sacagawea's different color didn't seem to solve it. As a collector, I am...
To each his own, but you are really narrowing down the possibilities. There are a lot of beautiful coins out there without a distinguished...
Keep posting -- I like the coins and the photos. Early copper is hard to grade as far as I can tell (don't collect it). If I were to guess which...
Like the quarter you have started with. Looks like a nice foundation for a great set -- please post updates.
This was great -- really enjoyed it. Any chance you can do one on the 37-D three legged Buffalo?
I have a Bausch & Lomb 10X and a GemOro 10X -- really like the GemOro.
I am not a Washington collector so I'm no expert at grading them but the 32-S looks better than AU53. Maybe the marks on George's neck bring it...
Handsome Toad I guess it's hard for me to understand buying from someone you generally consider to be misrepresenting their merchandise, even if...
These arguments about separating the slabs from the coins are somewhat circular. Two identical coins, one slabbed by PCGS or NGC and the other...
