I got blown out on the one Morgan I really liked:...
It looks nicer than a typical 64 (I could see it as a 65/65+). The PL is a bit more debatable as the standards were thought to be looser for PL...
We will just have to agree to disagree. To me dropping or scratching a coin does not change it from uncirculated to about uncirculated. It...
$1,350 in 2018; so the buyer made some money (if that is when he bought it):...
Basically: "every coin struck at the mint is Mint Struck"
Interestingly enough there were no late bids and it ended at $2,052 ($2,308.50 with the fee).
It was; I was confirming what you said by repeating it. :p
Using your interpretation (which I can see being reasonable), every coin struck at the mint is Mint Struck.
What would you consider the 2011 25th Anniversary 5 coin Silver Eagle set? Those coins were known to arrive already toned (if the capsules weren't...
"Mint stuck" and "Mint state" are different terms and that is where the source of disagreement lies. I don't believe mint struck has ever been the...
It's certainly possible. Some would like to see more green and a little less breaks in the toning (the area below "UNUM" could end up hurting the...
Here is a video: https://www.instagram.com/p/CPYjqCbFDcW/ I don't see the luster impaired by the toning. I reiterate, it's debatable what level...
Did you own this one before? I will guess $2,500 plus fees.
I need to catch up on this thread but I don't think the Franklin is an example that fits the original question. It's not an AU coin and wouldn't...
The toning was just right and a definite positive (I wouldn’t describe it as too thick). There were too many marks for the grade but they weren’t...
If you are talking about the $130k Franklin, it was certainly not circulated. It was optimistically graded (about 1.5 points too high) but it was...
It's a toss-up. On the last S-proof the limit was three but I heard reports that people with subscriptions for more (5, 10, or 25) got their full...
This one looks cleaner than the others but has the one unfortunate hit on the reverse (above “Five”)…the last two steps look merged, so only five...
Since all of these were NGC slabbed, I kept things consistent and had the 2020 graded as well. Luckily it came back as a 70. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
