I've looked at a ton, believe me you. I thought it was "easy" for a while lol. And then came the Canada PL vs Proof coins...
Here's one example of mine that's PL-ish to which I'm referring to. I see mirrored fields and light cameo devices, with a very strong cartwheel...
Or to put it a different way, where do you draw the line between Proof-like and a non-proof-like business strike coin? Thanks in advance!
So I'm not the only one! lol
I'm not referring to heavily worn coins, milk spots, carbon spots, etc. (unless you like those - e.g. sentimental coin you kept in your pocket). I...
Worth submitting then? Or, leave it raw?
I've had this one for a while now, but I'm ready to submit it to NGC. So, it'll be like I'm going to be getting it again when it comes back...

Yes, but if the various Mints call it a proof-like, then at least NGC will follow that label. If the various Mints call it a proof, despite it...
Since they were made in 1965, can an unopened 1965 Denver Mint set accidentally house the controversial 1964-D Peace Dollar? An unopened box of...
I was thinking if the US Mint ever counter-stamped foreign coins. Particularly for the 8 Reales, the Brits counter-stamped them, so I was looking...
So has Swedish coins seen an increase in demand or value because of this move? Is the market behavior similar to collectibles of recently...
Happened to me, too, until I got the technique down. "Like" in agreement, "dislike" that it happens.
I have this issue with many eBay sellers... and I thought my photos were bad...
We're all CISsies :P (Coin Idiot Savants)
This one's turtle side looks like the Fiji one, 1987 Ecuador 50 Reales Proof. It's a 5 ouncer at 65mm wide! Suits the giant tortoise very well....
