Just because a coin is raw doesn't mean that it won't either, but there is a strong perception in the marketplace that it does. Same thing with...
in general, coins in PCI and/or ANACS holders will sell for less money than those in NGC or PCGS holders at equal grade levels.
Don't use PSCG (unless you mis-typed PCGS). Any of PCGS, NGC, PCI (less value added) or ANACS (less value added) will suffice.
Although certain die marriages can definitely garner a premium in this particular case both coins are the same DM--LM-10 (or Valentine 4a if one...
Would I spend 125.00 per coin? No, for that matter, I wouldn't spend 12.50 per coin (not with s/h costs added). But, I'm not interested in...
By the same token, I've never bought a coin (regardless of price) sight unseen from Ebay. If you have the ability to look at a coin in hand and...
I semi-agree with you, but at least there is a strike to be graded on these. It's things like blank planchet errors that I don't understand being...

Whether he could sell it for what he paid (or more) for it is irrelevant. The coin is "worth" a minimum of what he paid for it TO HIM. And since...
Wrong.. Whatever he paid for it is its minimum value. It was worth at least that much to him. Regardless of whether he can sell it for that...
Premiums--regardless of grade--usually don't pick up until high R-4 to the R-5 levels. The 103 is one of--if not the--most common die marriage...
I've found in the past when Heritage does this that it is much simpler to just go to the auction company's site and place an absentee bid then let...
Something to keep in mind about "undipped" silver coins is that if it is "a bright shiny coin from say 100 years ago" then (other than Morgan...
Back in the late 1970s I had an older friend who owned both a 1796 and a 1797 half; he offered to trade my choice of the two for a couple of my...
