Who or what is "L&C" ?
Go to some coin shows (when this Covid crap ends)....and check out stuff in-person. And scan threads at sites like CoinTalk. Myself, I am...
I wanted to see if the Monthly Garden State/Parsippany (NJ) show was on for tomorrow (1st Sunday of each month) but as the Super Bowl is on, I...
Jeff, what would be interesting is if the pre-WF hoard of 1908 NM's were graded "on a curve" because they generally had mediocre features...and...
Jeff, I can't find a quote for a 1908 NM MS-68 before the Well hoard hit (I have MS60/63/65 quotes in the Burdette book), but I am sure that would...
Bob, the short answer is that PCGS coins have traditionally traded at a premium -- all other things (including grade being equal) -- to NGC coins....
Yup, thanks ! I got the Pop Report from before the Wells hoard hit. There were zero 68's.....3 MS-67's.....and just under 1,300 MS-66's (this...
Bob, FYI.....there are lots of other threads more relevant to your inquiry than a 7-year old thread on "Coin Shows." :D Not that I am against...

Thanks GD.....:cigar: I have that book on my WishList....I am not sure what's in it on Liberty DE's and Saint-Gaudens DE's, but I figured the...
They are very well-respected, I am sure that you will be properly taken care of. Don't sweat it.
I'm sure that just like at CU we had sleazebags from the Mint and U.S. Attorneys office scanning these forums during the 1933 Saints trial.
Well, I consulted The Bible -- Roger Burdette's SAINT-GAUDENS DOUBLE EAGLES magnus opus -- and got some of the relevant price information....
John, my apology....I wrote "Red Book" referring to the Whitman Book by Bowers. You thought I was referring to the annual Red Book published...
The price of gold was $1,150 to $1,400 in 2010. Seems like you got a pretty decent price.
My Double Eagle Red Book (by Bowers) has estimated certification numbers for each Saint by grade condition. Below it is Bower's estimate of the...
