Likely it's the rainbow toning where the coin is not lustrous. Rainbow toning generally occurs on lustrous coins like XF-45 and above, and even...
That sounds quite good to be honest. Hopefully I can get it quite cheap, as many of those coins can trade for way less no matter the cleaning...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] There is a current auction on David Lawrence Rare Coins, at the time of this post, that includes this 1818 Bust Quarter graded...
Wow. If only I could get close to that shop. Here in Indiana, I have a lot of good coin places to go to, but I've never heard of those culls for...
How on earth did you get a SEATED half for $10? I pay that as a usual price for Walkers.
Here are some other acronyms: Stuffed Garbage in a Slab Slapped Grade Slabs Stupid Grades on a Slab Plus many more! ;)
I guarantee they'd look at it and slab it as a 70. LOL Uhhh.... you must be this calm all the time! Bad news is never the start when it comes to...
Lots of us new collectors have likely heard of SGS, but when you go to their website, ........nothing. However, after some digging, I actually...
Those are both quite good suggestions. Hopefully I don't get overcharged for an Indian, which means that I'd pay optimally $500-600.

15 minutes? I hope you didn't miss any silver! ;)
No problem! ;) Hopefully many others can see this post and read it before investing in Eagles.
For anyone that collects Silver Eagles, we've likely seen that a shop is selling them from $21.97 each, all for various years, with monster boxes...
Thanks for the advice! I agree that pre-33 gold has historic value, so it will probably be way better in the long run. ;)
I am a person who has enough gold to...... about buy lunch at McDonald's. However, I do have quite a bit of silver, so I'm wondering: to start...
Definitely so. The front looks way too lustrous because it appears to be a low-end AU. AU58 coins can look about as good as a MS64 or 65, but I...
Unfortunately those impaired proofs, like mine, often don't bring in much compared to the 69s and 70s, or the same grade silver proofs. I'm pretty...
Are those raised? If so, you'd likely have a Mint Error MS66+. If not, UNC details. :)
That's weird that they won't sell you change. I've got three banks around that will sell me change without a problem, one with multiple locations....
