I love the Dansco albums. I’ve always hated the plastic slides though. The brown albums and nice slip covers are tough to beat. I’ve had my...
It is pretty clear to me that CAPS albums are the cream of the crop in terms of albums that do not 'hurt' coins in any way. However, my main...
Thanks for this post. This is the first I've heard of CAPS albums. I love them, but dang it would cost me $1k-$2k just in albums and air-tites to...
I think many collectors see themselves as dealers and are only willing to pay 'dealer' prices or close to them.
This is very surprising to me. Is this true of eBay auctions too or are you primarily referring to the Heritage/Stacks/Sothebys type auctions?
Thank you for this. This has been really enlightening. I certainly fall under the second dealer category you outline above (tend to price fairly...
I could not agree more. Unfortunately I think we will see a similar trend, but not as drastic, as what we’ve seen with sports card values. The...
I really appreciate the thoughtful reply GDJMSP. I am familiar with your posts here and I respect your opinion greatly. Thank you for the...
I could not agree more. If I never see another batch of 1876-1878 seated quarters or common seated dimes in Fair/AG/G not selling for $15-$25...

I like to call myself an opportunist collector. Very rarely will I buy something on impulse. I suspect there are an increasing number of online...
Hi Friends, I am wondering how many of us build our collections almost exclusively from 'business purchases' and/or 'business profits from...
It looks 63RB to me. Hairlines on the cheek and fields, plus weaker strike. Beauty coin regardless.
Maybe Sheldon-21?
Yeah, I'm not aware of a 'pointed chin' type of variety. Are you? I don't see a bad ding mark in that area.
This looks like Head of 1793 with rounded relief, minimal obv denticles, the head lower on the obv, and the cap more upright than the Head of 1794...
Hi All, Other than the apparent cleaning, does it look authentic? I'm concerned about the lack of relief even though details are there. Thoughts?...
Hi All, This one is not nearly as sexy but other than the apparent cleaning does it look authentic? I'm concerned about the lack of relief even...
Yes, if you want to pay up for them. Slabbed AU DETAILS coins sell for $200+. Slabbed UNC DETAILS coins sell for $1000+. Big difference. I agree,...
Good point.
