Kevin Flynn's The Authoritative Reference on Two Cent Coins C2011, lists 24 business strike RPDs for the 1864 LM. If you can obtain close,...
It is pretty but it doesn't fit anymore and I'm committed to cleaning out the stuff that doesn't fit anymore. Hope the wife doesn't get that bug...
10-4. A nice one, with a full to fullish date, will be hard to find. I did find a pretty 53 in PCGS Ms-64 in a dealer's inventory but he wanted...
I am looking to replace the Variety 2 With Drapery Half Dime (1840-1853) in my type set because I sent my raw coin off to NGC and it came back...
In the meantime, we still have gasoline priced in 1/10th of a cent.
Not qualified to comment on the coloring. But if those are indeed die breaks on the effigy, then they are not a cause for a details grading since...
I'll be there providing life or the alternative doesn't have a say.
Spot on on all points. The commercial pricing of early copper is almost exclusively based upon the TPG grade. There is a pretty large raw market...

B because of much better strike and whatever caused PCGS to give it a 64 isn't distracting. I fine A's poor strike much more distracting....
Picked up 3 of the new CACG boxes at the latest FUN show. I like the boxes just fine except for one idiosyncrasy. I found that if you insert...
I assume this comment was directed at me. If so, I can't determine what you're trying to tell me. I really don't see why I should submit it for...
Those LCC auctions almost never contain anything that interests me but when I saw this one and examined it closely, I really couldn't see why it...
I don't know much of anything on the topic of fractional currency but I couldn't resist this cute little 5 Cent piece offered at my local coin...
I gave CACG five coins for crossover at the FUN show and one for stickering. While none crossed or stickered, I did get the results within two...
Thanks for the clarification. I suspected that might be the case.
