I would love to meet RLM sometime, absolutely! And you are too funny - hot sauce videos! No offense to the hot sauce king, but to me that sounds...
First, let me say I believe I know who is selling the raw coin (you can PM me if you like) but I have had both good and bad experiences with that...
Without seeing it in hand, it's hard to tell if the rim area you are talking about is damage or simply minor rim cuds. If it's just cuds, then it...
Sorry, I think it was probably body bagged. Bummer, it's very pretty.
I'm kind of in Jack's corner except from the photos, my opinion is that it's either MS63 BN or AU58 - but it's a little hard to tell from the...
well struck, tons of luster, no spots, very few marks barely noticeable, NGC probably gave it MS67
Wow, Jack, I can't tell you how much you warm my heart - you are such a sweetie, and it is I who benefit greatly from this forum and all the new...
Thanks RLM. I don't really care about the "competition" that goes with the registry sets, you know, getting a better coin just to get another...
While I don't have the elusive and costly 1873 S-1 Double Die Indian cent, I just acquired the 1873 S-2, which is almost as good, to go along with...
WOW, that's pretty high praise - I very much appreciate it - thank you rzage!
Thank you KSparrow - it has taken me quite a while to acquire these, and I am always looking for prettier and better ones. And I'm really having...
Any dealers out there been to this show? If so, what was it like from a selling standpoint? Just curious, since I don't have anything going on...
RLM, thank you. Actually, I really like multiple colors along with the red/orange tones, particularly violet, blue, purple, and magenta. But...
Thanks, Tmoney, but I'm not sure which 1908 you are referring to, since I didn't post a 1908, at least not yet. But if you like, here is my 1908...
There is really no way to know for sure who these coins toned, but there are several ways coins can naturally tone, i.e., leaving them in an old...
Ok, thought it was time to see more of Todd's great photos of some more of my coins. I tried to pick a few that have somewhat similar toning. My...
It looks cleaned to me too, and can't tell what's going on with the cheek - damage, scrape? Probably won't grade with PCGS/NGC, but I'm in the AU...
WLhalves, hmmm, just wondering, guess you didn't read my thread before Hobo's??
I believe PL is Proof-Like, and PQ is Premium Quality, but perhaps since I am a copper specialist and not that familiar with silver, that acronyms...
Yes, PQ does mean premium quality for that grade, and you are correct in that it is super nice but not quite a grade higher. In this case, PQ...
