The premium has really fallen over the years. At the peak, the 1999 silver proof set was well over $300. Nowadays the set is $50-$70 (that...
I guess they are still conservative with this date. https://www.cointalk.com/threads/guess-the-grade-1885-s-morgan.296429/ I had one in a PCGS...
64 dmpl ....I think the photo doesn't quite show it, but the coin is dmpl (the "halo" around the Eagle I tend to see on DMPL CCs)....fields are...
Those two were super tricky; this was the most fair and you nailed it!
Unfortunately, there really isn't anything close. Usacoinbook is an alternative but it has a small fraction of the eBay buyers and sellers. Your...
Many of you had this one right with MS 63 PL. See no more tricks @Beefer518 :) I've wanted a proof-like Columbian and finally picked this one up...
Nice luster and the cheek looks relatively clean; there are marks in the fields...given that it is a better date, I'm going more conservative at MS 63
Anyone else?
There is a hint on the photo (white prongs = NGC).
Without trying to give anything away, there are two scratch-like items that I see on the photo. One is definitely not a scratch (more like a...
@Beefer518 no tricks this time from me...or is that what I want you to think? :p
You might recall the other parts :p...forget those and please grade this one! [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Here is something I've seen referenced and it includes the dealer to dealer buy prices for various bullion....
MS 62 ...nice luster but many marks (which hold it back from 63)
You may be onto something with that spot. It is more common to see something like that on a proof vs a business strike. Also, it is not a rattler...
That’s a cool idea and you have a good start! I’m looking forward to seeing what else you find.
Nice group overall and I like the one you are stoked about!
I did look there but it was inconclusive from my viewpoint. The 1950 & 1951 (and to some degree 1952 & 1953) proofs aren't what we are used to...
Something about it made me initially think proof but the bell lines made me reconsider (enough for FBL but not as sharp as you see on proofs)...MS...
I think it is fine to test them. An issue is that one or two coins won't show much. What I'd think would be more informative is if a larger...
