Finally today, NGC marked the US submission as "Scheduled for grading." 9 February - Received 2 March - Scheduled for grading Just a heads up...
Yeah, I can also see that the scratch is on the bridge of the nose. If it were a die scratch or maybe even a struck through, I don't think it...
Yeah, something is very off about it. I've decided to return it. In the seller's original photo of the coin while in a flip, you can barely make...
I just received this today and to my dismay, I noticed that it's scratched. With the bright luster, however, it's relatively difficult to see the...
I'm with #2 or #3. Though, I'd even upgrade the third option.
Those aren't acronyms - they're abbreviations. Acronyms are abbreviations that spell out a word. Just saying...
OK, I updated the spreadsheet so that now you can add multiple different tiers for a given submission. For instance, if you want to submit 1...
We had a discussion about this in the past. I think some people mentioned something about PCGS owning patents for the technology, but not using it...
The seller purchased the 8 Reales from a dealer in Spain. I don't have a reason to doubt his claim, as the rest of the coins he has appear to be...
Well, if it's real, it's worth a decent amount. It actually looks closer to this one, Y#45, which is from 1917 as opposed to Y#45.2 which is from...
Please PM me what you're willing to pay, and I'll let you know if I can do it. Whatever price you're paying, I'll include shipping and PayPal...
I think so far that I will, but it's the only World coin that I have right now for submission. Too bad I can't put it on the same form as the US...
The seller I bought this from sells only shipwreck coins, from El Cazador and Atocha, so maybe it is a shipwreck salvage coin. Here's the exact...
Yes, Mexico City is the Mint. This is my third 8 Reales from 1776 :) Mine weighs 26.52 grams. Krause says it should weigh 27.0674 grams, so it's...
Interesting input... I just noticed this on the edge, too - the square and circle pattern's top and bottom halves are shifted. That's not possible...
From what I can tell, mine matches authentic 8 Reales coins for the series. However, I came across a fake 1776 "FF" 8 Reales coin on the 'net that...
Can you let us know where the dot is in on the coin?
I wish lol. An 1893 proof set is on my wish list... But yeah, the photo looks to have been brightened. I do show another, contrasting image...
It was interesting reading this old thread and the story behind the "dot" cent. My thinking of the Mint's rationale for marking an incuse dot on...
Also, I believe that if an NGC holdered coin is resubmitted for a re-grade and meets the minimum desired grade, then the former certification...
