No, you're not paranoid; you're right on the money. For whatever reason, seated dollars are very, very tough to find. I'm not sure what the deal...
I understand your concern. However... is it really fair to make such a sweeping condemnation based upon this one incident ? It's clear there...
The TPGs are paid for their time and expertise just like all people in all walks of life. That's not a sham; it's perfectly reasonable. One must...
Thanks, Marshall ! Normally, one might say "2006 is too long ago; that data point is obsolete" but things change slowly in such a specialized...
This is a happy day for you ! That's an r.6 . Dick Osburn, king of Early Silver, has only one 29LM11 in stock - an F12/VF20 listed for $495. I...
This appears to be Reverse Die "F", which means it is either LM-9, 10, 11, or 12. If so, that's good news for you; all are scarce. Before we...
Wow ! LD, that is the most outrageous post yet ! Congrats ! Nuthin' better than gettin' a "steal" from the IRS !
Thanks, Siggi ! :hug:
Here's a favorite...
Sounds like she holds a lot of strange notions ! "Lessee now... I do something incredibly stupid, attack someone not once but twice, and it's all...
I've never been insulted, but like everyone else I see ridiculous deals all the time. I just nod my head and move on. No biggie.

Congrats on your birthday and a great coin. Be sure to give a big shout-out to your lovely wife from all your coin peep buds on CT !
Yes, yes, yes. In addition to this - zoom in as much as possible to fill the frame with the coin. That way the coin dominates the light...
Yes. The single-source lighting approach creates shadows, which creates contrast. Vitally important on low contrast copper.
Yes, it's a great time to be an American. I'm as pro-American as George Washington. And I would dearly love to join PhyFan on some of that...
Yo. This here ya boy Ricky B... ovah an' out, peeps.
My best read says this is LM-6, r.5 early die state, intermediate twixt 6.1 and 6.2. Check the reverse carefully for a small rim cud developing...
The h10c is tougher from this photo (on an iPhone). I'm fairly confident this reverse E (RI touch), due mostly to the S2S-5 alignment. The...
The 1837 10c is variety 3, r.2 obverse die 1, reverse C. Easiest diagnostics : block 8 in date leans left + reverse "F" is very low.
