If you had to keep it in your collection and pass it on to the next generation... and they're both equally valued at $100K, with future value...
No matter how accustomed I am to or guru'd up on sufficiently advanced tech, it will always be magical to me. :)
So, how does one "conserve" a coin with carbon spots? I'm of course assuming that those are carbon spots on the Walking Liberty coin in the...
Is there a novelty coin example you can find for us? I'm coming up blank on the Google searches. It would be good to see and know for future...
I'm guessing it's because of the transition year to the Peace Dollar (which is why my title is incorrect... was thinking that instead). Yeah,...
I'm not a fan of the term "high grade", which is why I created this thread in the first place. It was nice to play devil's advocate for a while...

I take it that the major TPG's wouldn't attach a year to the coin, right? Even with compelling circumstantial proof, such as a coin that's Mint...
I take it that coin conservation services provided by NCS and other reputable numismatic conservation service providers are not considered...
Lol, I'm definitely not myself today. I didn't see the $4k part... I should go take a long nap.
I hear people tend to "self-insure" on here. Usually though, I'd just do first class / priority flat rate + signature. Priority flat rate...
I meant '63 lol. I'll correct that in the first post. For the second point, are my examples too faded? Or, are they what's expected?
Would these Franklin proofs qualify as FBL? Or, are they not sharp enough? The one on the left is a '63 (EDIT: '63 not '64...) - scratches are on...
What numeric grade range is considered as "high grade" for NGC / PCGS?
Separate names with a comma.
