Everyone has their druthers but with these old coins and the way the Mint worked in those days, die cracks are common. Plus, the TPGs do not...
It's been a while since I posted a GTG so let's give it a go with this latest acquisition for my Capped Bust Half Dime collection. This is the...
I'm stretching for a win here: I guessed XF-40, No Bean. That's the same as VF-35 with a bean, isn't it? LOL
I have never seen a good reason to leave the auction house stickers on the slab and a couple of good reasons to remove them. My reasons for...
I believe the first explanation for the spiked chin and the curved lines came from Breen when he speculated that a bolt fell or landed on the die...
Nice 1806. It's the C-1 variety consisting of Obverse 1 and Reverse A. Rarity 1. The primary pickup is the stemless wreath, the only one of the...

I have won a number of auctions from this seller and have never seen any evidence that would lead me to suspect shill bidding. Of course, if it...
Evidence? An unsupported claim is just that. I can claim you are a green-skinned alien and who is to gainsay me. Oh, I have no evidence to back...

Yes. Got the new one a couple of days ago. Ask here or PM me.
