“Gem Uncirculated” is different than “Brilliant Uncirculated”. To get “Gem Uncirculated” I believe it needs to be 65+. I’m guessing the Silver...
He does some good videos on debasement and hyperinflation!
I mean it’s not that complicated so I don’t know how I could’ve messed it up. First I dipped it in. Then I pulled it out and rinsed it with...
You know what’s interesting? Despite the top notch care these coins have received since they were minted..they still couldn’t prevent the copper...
Nice! That coin is from the same time period as my Quadrigatus. I just learned recently that the silver used to make it was silver paid by...
Just be careful! If you end up winning on accident you still have to pay for it xD.
No idea xD If I recall correctly it had something to do with Christian imagery on it at a specific time period. I can’t remember the entire...
Well it’s at $6,250 now so apparently not xD. I wonder if someone from the CT forums bid above $4,100 for it.
LOL the bid went from $4,100 to $6,250 since I made this thread xD. Are you guys placing bids or something?
Yeah I know what you mean! On HA a few weeks ago I saw an even older 1850s proof set but it was British. It had every coin from the Half...
Hehe well in all fairness I did say “or more.” I’m surprised no one has put in a bid above the $4,700.
Yeah the price will be crazy I bet. It’s at $4700 but I’m guessing it will sell for $10K or more. However I consider something like that to be...
Glad you found it enjoyable to check out :). I wasn’t sure if people would get annoyed since it’s not a coin of mine but it just felt like...
Yeah sometimes people set a higher “secret max bid” so you end up getting immediately outbid. :/
Agreed! I see a lot of coins on auction sites but this set took my breath away and I felt was worth sharing for enjoyment and inspiration.
I used this stuff. Someone on this forum recommended it and I saw it on sale on JM Bullion so I figured I’d give it a shot. [ATTACH]
Nice pickup! I have always wanted an aureus. I have a bid on a Nero & a Hadrian but I’ll probably lose in the end. Antoninus Pius doesn’t get the...
Oh wow that’s cool! I wonder if this set was bought as a set or like you said assembled. Idk why I just find it beautiful. Every coin looks...
I‘m not trying to convince anyone of anything. I was simply asking if it’s different for MS coins since a lot of people like to touch ancient...
[ATTACH] Idk why but for some reason I am really drawn to this set. It just looks so beautiful.. Did the US Mint even make proof sets in 1868?...
