The reason there is little love for modern commemoratives is because of the designs and numbers struck. There are a few very nicely designed...
I've only bid in US auctions but, they usually only ask for a few references or a deposit. I've been bidding auctions since 1997 so I haven't...
He did a nice job toning them. Very obvious when you look at all his coins he's selling. What he did is not hard to do but, there is no...

I think I can make some of these on my work bench with my hammer and vice. I wonder if anyone actually buy these things? I've seen all kinds of...

I figured AU 58 because it looked like there was a rub around the eye. If not, then MS 65 brown. My second choice was right however, I think the...
The address means nothing. Some of these scammers use the name or logo of legit dealers in their adds. It could be a real address but, it...
The pictures are too bright to truly judge but very likely MS 66 or better. Not proof like. Very nice.
The reverse doesn't look right. The obverse even the with the fuzzy picture something seems off. Get yourself a few P steel cents and compare...
