Not tired at all... watching the birth of a hugely valuable numismatic tool. With a library of known good examples, and a half way square...
It may be less 'rare' than 'condition rarity'. The people who bought it, bought it to use - serious collectors. So there aren't many copies...
I think your work & idea is wonderful. The final drawing alone will exclude a host of counterfeit examples. I'm also not willing to give up on...
Conder is correct, the copper coins have a slight pink wash. And of course, were one to look at SEGS' page......
The other possibility - also not really adding value - is a die chip. The part of the coin that sticks up is the depressions in the die. So the...
I know the seller. He moves a lot of coins and his descriptions and grading is usually spot on. He sells a lot of low end coins as well as a lot...
