I concur; looks bogus. Just doesn't have the right look to it.
I've got a sweet 1939-D Jefferson nickel that has to be MS-67. One of the nicest coins in my collection. Pics coming soon......
That's very neat. I've been meaning to pick up an opium piece for quite some time, but never got one.
I'd take a WAG and say that probably half or more of them remain intact. I do have a 1979 type II proof set, with all the coins being type II,...
Very nice examples. Thanks for sharing!
Fantastic question. I don't know, but I am curious. I love the entrepreneurial mindset. America is a great place for that type of thinking to...
I don't see granularity in the pics, just horizontal lines on the reverse. That's typically die polish, especially on Jeffersons, and especially...
MS-67. That's not how I'd grade the coin, but I'm taking a shot in the dark.
I appreciate the sentiment, but 1/2 cent coins in casinos would be worthless. Even the cent machines now you really end up playing 50 or 100...
I really like that picture idea. Take a really nice, big, high-res picture and size it down. Could get pretty realistic-looking.
From the pictures, I agree with PCGS's decision not to award the full-steps designation. I use the quarter-step grading method, and I'd probably...
Teletrade isn't known for their jaw-dropping photography. Their pictures are often not representative of how the coin looks in hand. If it's a...
If the quarters are in a reputable holder, no problem selling. I'd dump the halves as a roll. You will lose some money, but consider it tuition...
Want.
Uh...... That's not a pattern coin -- I'd bet my bottom dollar that it's a Photoshop dealio. Nice concept, though.
Now I understand. Sorry I can't be of more help. If the prices are more than $300, it seems to me you'd be better off making a custom rig of...
I'm obviously not seeing what you're seeing. Besides, Minnesota is clearly going to dominate Dallas. I'd bet a nickel on it.
I agree with the shop owner. Just join NGC. If you are an eBay seller, I believe they have a deal with NGC where you can send in coins without...
I have not the slightest idea what you are looking for, from your description. When I think of a copy stand, I think of a device to hold papers...
Same here. I started early in life, took a break, and got back into the hobby as an adult. My father started me collecting coins. I remember...
