I listed 3 coins on eBay (EAC stuff). They all sold. But I did keep the starting price at about 80% of catalog.
Well, for the next couple months, there's plenty of time while you're stuck at home to search coin rolls.
My library is smallish compared to others. I don't have anything dealing with non-US material except Krause. I don't keep auction catalogs....
One possible way to curb this sort of nonsense. Charge a listing fee based on the starting price. 0.1% of the starting price. The would be 10¢ at...
This is a test. If it works then you will be able to see the contents of my library. Oh, and if it doesn't work, you won't....
Just received another guide/reference book today. My library is now over 40 numismatic related books. Now, if I could only afford all the coins...
I found them to be interesting enough to collect: -- a full set in NGC MS-67, and -- a full set of Full Steps from PCGS (8) and NGC (3) ranging in...
Interesting. To me it looks like: -- as cpm9ball said, "... someone was trying to clean it up a bit ....", or -- mis-handled (I only see the lines...
I've never had to argue with a TPG about their attribution. Mostly I've dealt with NGC. I want to have my Classic Head Half Cents attributed. I...
I've got the Logan/McCloskey Half Dime book. I'll likely try for the Dime book. Somewhere along the line I got interested in die varieties and die...

I have two levels of coin insurance with Hugh Wood. The low level is for the items I keep at home. The mid-level is for items I keep at the bank....
When I look at better coin auctions, I stick with: -- eBay -- Great Collections -- Heritage -- Stack's & Bowers Why? Because they are the only...
It's not so much as how many were struck (although that is a factor); it's how many still exist. Extreme example: 1933 Saint Gaudens Double...
Of course there's S&H. And frequently submitters want to get coins slabbed so NGC would get involved there. All that could push the cost up toward...
I haven't looked but my guess would be in the $400-700 range.
I was going to make a suggestion on how to "conserve" it but it's worth too much to mess around with. There is always NCS.
That 1941 20-mil coin is pricey. I've been after one for 10-15 years. Looking for one for my birth year set.
If it's really that shiny I suspect it's been coated with something.
Do you have Snow's book? Some of those date errors are sneaky and hard to find on the coin.
