That's correct. Notice he said "using just the cert numbers". Sometimes, one can be reasonably certain that a given coin is the same coin based...
Perhaps it's overly harsh to say he "can't handle basic math". He made a mistake, which makes him "one of us". We all make mistakes, even those...
By default, they don't attribute a coin unless specifically asked to do so. Extra service costs extra and adds to the turnaround time - as it should.
I'm confused. When a coin upgrades, it gets a new certificate with a different certification number. How, then, did you "check on the...
Yep, it's a bag mark. All agree. I can't imagine anyone saying they should be ignored. ANACS gave this one an MS61 (older blue label).
Hey guys... thought I'd throw down a little "grade me" on a popular favorite - the 1928 Peace dollar. What grade do you assign to this little...
We're in ! I forget our table number. Look us up in the catalog and drop by and say hi !!! You can meet my lovely bride.
Merry Christmas to all !

...but they're not in bad shape, either. The 1834 has a very pleasant look to it... just "good honest wear" and seemingly problem-free. A rare die...
I was told there were 448 (or so), but I could be wrong.
Uncirculated 1790s US will be expensive. Colonial coins are cheaper than I long thought. The Virginia halfpenny was hoarded back in the day; MS...
Merry Christmas, Charmy ! Congrats on the fabulous coinage. You have my contact info, so you know where Santa should drop those little goodies !
It's obviously a circulated coin. MS++ ? No way. As Matt pointed out, it's 100% brown with zero red. RB ? No way. I suppose XF is a decent grade...
The best Overton is the newest one - 4th edition edited by Don Parsley.
Exactly. Well said. A double eagle supplies enough gold to make 20 gold dollars; that's one reason why gold dollars are so commonly...
