I didnt find it at a show.....but I did find a 1912s Liberty Nickel in a dealers bucket of nickels priced at $1/coin. After going through is...
Im heading to Tampa and the surrounding area this week for work and I will have some extra time while Im down there. Does anyone know if you...
I take advantage of people that take crappy pictures of raw coins (mostly IHC's) and offer a return policy. 1864 L IHC paid $26, came back...
Thanks for the input everyone.....I guess I am kind of glad now that I did not bid on it. I still think the coin would look better in hand than...
The reverse looks MS65+. I don't know what the spots do on the front, but I see no contact marks, dings or scratches. My guess is MS64RB, which...
I don't think it has been whizzed. Again, the few spots on the obverse tell me that its original. Also the color is very consistent through the...
What are those graded if I may ask....My guess is either 64RB or 65RB. Here is the one I picked up this weekend.....bought it raw for less than...
It sold for $294. Seller had great feedback and just sold an unc 1870 where the buyer said the coin looked better in hand than the pictures. The...
Nope....the name comes from my college mascot....Texas Tech.
I travel a lot for my job and this last week I was in the Detroit/Ann Arbor area and when I have a few extra minutes, I try to find a coin shop to...
Unfortunately, I don't think the cent is damaged......quality control back in the 70s was bad at the mint and I think that this coin was not...
Thats a nice 1871 Shallow N and is worth a hefty premium over the Bold N counterpart!!
Here is a gist of the 1877 and other dates around 1877 with the weak "N" reverse. The reverse is not weak in the center area, it is just the way...
I am actually glad its not a proof now.....If this is the only known repunched date using the same die as Snow's PF-3, this could be scarcer than...
not reflective at all....I have IHC proofs that are graded, and the surfaces don't look the same. There is a wide range of reflectivity on IHC...
Here are a few pics......another thing Richard Snow references in his guide is there is are purple toned proofs that are often designated in a BN...
I have a few IHCs that I think might be proofs that are in MS NGC holders. Sometimes these are tough to tell apart, but one of them (1880 MS63BN)...
The only thing the mint did wrong was offer a 5 set limit (should have offered 1 set limit). This would have allowed many more collectors (like...
Do you think this was in response to the flopped release of the 25th ann. set?
Thats why I'm so suspicious of this seller. Im into the Indian Cent series and they have soooo many raw proofs its ridiculous. Something seems...
