That's a good question. The main question is whether it would be worth the expense involved, and how good the final outcome would be. I've never...
Fun finds. I've only been able to get halves at the bank a few times.
Fascinating, with the find context. But yes, without the reverse image...
Good for you. Stand your ground against the naysayers, lad. Yes. While there is no ironclad guarantee of authenticity, having NGC certify your...
I admit it- I'm a slabber. Two decades on the PCGS forums, immersed in that culture, had its effect on me. But I learned pretty quickly not to...

Some counterstamps bring good money. I know the Houck's Panacea counterstamps on Bust halves are very popular, for example. With certain...
Oh, here’s another that passed through not long ago. Canada (Nova Scotia): copper ferry token, Halifax Steam Boat Company, undated, ca. 1855-1870...
Someone- indeed, a lot of someones- "marked it up", but not in modern times. This is an example of "good damage", because it's far more...
That's the one. Thanks.
