Get really close. :)
Maybe if you took it to him in person. :)
OOHHH - maybe you should have a fund raising event and sell some of those bust halves? But get a number from Doug first - see what it would cost.:)
And where do you think? :)
I really like some of the old white ANAC's slabs - sometimes you get accurately grade coins pretty cheap. Some of them are good crossover coins....
Are you really sure of that? Don't worry I don't get it all either - but from the title of the thread I am really sure I don't want to know what...
Or maybe even the right fire arm. :)
Dipping done right won't hurt the coin. Some of those blast white morgans are good examples - those are still nice coins. I would not try it...
As mentioned get some books first. Maybe even some albums where you can collect from spare change - even those sets are fun to put together....
Not really enough choices - especially if you collect by variety on some of the older coins. Those of us who are not rich may have to make due...
And that is why you do not buy the sticker or the slab. I have noticed things like this on the newer stuff in the new pcgs and ngc slabs. Just...
Books and learn as already mentioned. And if you really feel the need to buy - buy something graded by NGC or PCGS.
TMI......:)
Which one is older? :) PS - from the pictures the second has the nicer color of the two. :)
I would say 64 and 65 in that order. I think the pictures don't really show the luster that is on the coins. 2 very nice coins.
Nice pickup - I think it looks at least 55. Congrats and I agree with medjoy. Stop by there often to see what else you might find.
Certain sniping tools are fine. A lot of others use them and they do work. And at times you see hi-jacked accounts on ebay. Not sure how much it...
Copper is fun to collect, but the large cents are the best. I think the 1851 looks around vf-35 and xf details on the half cent. Hard to say...
Only if you are lucky enough to find one raw like that and have it straight grade. :) I think I paid about twice that for my O-121 which graded at...
Too many to count. Matter of fact I should probably pull out all the extra's and take em to the local shop to clean them up.
