If you buy a coin and sit on it for 10 years or so, there's a pretty good chance it'll go up in value. That said, it could remain stagnant or go...
I'll guess MS62. Regardless of what it grades, it's a remarkable coin.
I was around 6 or so when I started. My mom took me to a doctor appointment, and in the waiting room they had one of those coin donation...
If it were me, I'd open it. I'd rather open it and find out there's only one in there than to sell it intact on eBay and then see someone pop up...
Probably the cheapest coin in Pogue's collection is worth more than my entire collection ever will be. :( But those gold PCGS labels look pretty...
Wowsa! Those are truly remarkable. They would give my wheat pennies an inferiority complex!
It is the Browning-1 die marriage, the rarest of the four marriages of 1819. The B-4 is rated as R.4+, so it's a little more common, but it tends...
Here's my 1819 quarter. Supposedly it's rated as an R.5-, meaning there's around 75 of them. A perfect example of supply and demand. If it was a...
Not necessarily for the word penny, but there are other instance where they could word something in a manner that is offensive to someone's...
The reason I was surprised by the College Board penny thing is because they are usually EXTREMELY anal about how they word things so they don't...
This reminds me of when I was practicing for the AP English Language exam, in one of the practice essays they had you write about whether or not...
Unless I'm going crazy that coin has medallic alignment. If it was normal, the top prong on the holder wouldn't be touching the top of the design...
Who knows if its surfaces were altered or not, but I'm still curious why they gave it the code 95 for a scratch. Is the lighting in the pictures...
Lol at the "no haggle bonus" in that ones description. I guess if you don't try to talk their price down into the realm of reality you get some...
Ehh, I wouldn't say it's a great deal. That price is in the neighborhood of what a non-polished AU coin would cost (based on auction records)....
Upon realizing I estimated the copper nugget to grade MS68, I'd say it has a good shot at MS69! MS70 is a bit of a stretch,though, because if you...
Nah, even on a bad day at SGS that's at the very least a MS68! ;)
I agree on the no full bands. Oddly enough up until last week or so I thought "full bands" referred to the vertical bands and not the horizontal...
Okay, this is in the realm of being coin related (kind of bullion related?): What's a pirate's favorite element on the periodic table?...
Is this a reference to those fancy Sacagaweas? If so, I love it! I still like your signature line joke better though. :hilarious:
