Or a real-life example with embellishments. Great-grandpa Joe has a pocket watch and fob made from an 1876 half dollar. 1876 is a special year of...
I don't understand the logic behind no photos. If a criminal is going to target a specific dealer or coin, how would photos help?
I've noticed the same at my local show. Variety is the spice of life! But I can say the same for Barber coinage. Thanks for the report.
Garage sale doesn't instill confidence for me.
The pointed 7 variety carries a bit more premium than the blunt 7 for the 1947 $1, but in that rough condition with the hole it probably doesn't...
I may have purchased one a long time ago, not sure. I've never really been interested in the Canadian cents, just the nickels and silver. All...
I would not purchase from images like these, too washed out and possibly hiding things. What I do see is gray areas in the fields indicating loss...
Among pet peeves this would rank high in the peeviest. :) For fun, here's my properly sequential set of 1947 Maple Leafs. [ATTACH]
In my one experience submitting to ANACS at a show, they sticker the submitted flips (or slabs) with pre-printed sequential cert# labels in the...
It's way too small to be the 8 from the date, and how would that clash near the center of the reverse anyway? I don't see anything on the obverse...
Who is looking to buy 500 1971 mint sets and where did you get this info?
I'm curious about the legal/legislative side of this. My impression is that the mint can decide how many to produce of a given denomination based...
I think any acidic environment would do it, given enough time. The cupronickel alloy outer layers are corrosion resistant and the copper inner...
Also says denomination is small cent. Not trying very hard.
Impossible is your correct take on it. Carson City didn't begin operations until 1870 and construction of the building didn't even start until...
CPI inflation calculator says your $1200 in 1988 is worth $3360 today. You barely beat inflation. If you invested conservatively at 4% you'd have...
I would never try to give an opinion from images on these myself. It's #11 on NGC's list of top 50 counterfeited US coins. The fakes from the...
That was a good score. I got mine in an old ICCS MS60 holder for $80, but that was (yikes) 21 years ago. ANACS gave it MS62 when I got my best...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] The only one I don't really like is the Indian Head cent, for cultural appropriation reasons. A Caucasian woman...
Also selling a $2.50. I think the “gold” on that one is glitter glued on.
