The way I look at most old soap box holders is that yes, Amos press was over grading but there grades really never got to the point of the market...
Even though your coin is dirty, it really has good details. If I was to guess from a picture it has probably XF45 details. I would rather have an...
Well, this was supposed to go out this morning. I got caught up and forgot to click post reply. Well, here it is, I am not sure who they paid to...
I wouldn't use it. Acetone is harmless to a coins surface.
Good morning Joy. If you don't know what you are doing then you could devalue that HC even more than it already is. If you try anything do not rub...
Definitely a die crack Croesus. The 1922 Peace is one of the hardest to VAM. Looks like @mbogoman got it. In the link below. Look at additional...

I definitely get it. I get the best fruit when I have tall Lettuce and cilantro. The flowers bring the bees, and then the bees pollinate all the...
Ya know, when I was just into varieties, I found a 79CC Capped die in a pawn shop. It was lustrous, sharp strike, just gorgeous. Deep golden and...
