Thanks @Insider. I am gratified that we can continue to trust ICG. A simple database error was what I was hoping for. I relied on that...
Once again, as with others, you ascribe false motives to those that disagree with you. I do not condone theft, robbery, or any other form of...
That coin hammered this afternoon at over $6k. Strong prices everywhere.
I visited New York City about 10 years ago when my daughter was living in Queens. We did a lot of things while there and had a very enjoyable...
I know it's Mikes Mountain Values and I know the rep he has here. But that's not the question. Why does the slab number show as a 1935-D nickel...
This is primarily for @Insider: This ICG-graded 1877 IHC is in an EBay auction this afternoon at 3:18 ET. The ICG number is 2555550301 which...
@ksparrow, thanks for the link. I wasn't aware that Paquet was responsible (with Longacre) for the Type II LS quarter reverse as well. Nor did I...
Yes, I think the TPG gave it a large benefit of the doubt there. I wouldn't go for it at a VF30 price point.
The 1859 Philadelphia half dime sports a unique obverse named after an assistant engraver, Anthony C. Paquet. I don't believe anyone knows why...
I see several insuperable problems with @cplradar's proposals for which I have seen no proposed solutions. They are, just to mention a few:...
I only have three Barbers, all for the type set: First is a so-so Barber Dime, then a quarter and finally a half that I got when I was child and...
@ldhair, quite a nice example. I agree with @Paddy54 that it is the RPD-002 (Breen 3091) and was die polished heavily. The other RPD of 1858 is...
Thanks for the explanation. My father told me when I was a little shaver "Surround yourself with people that are smarter than you. It can't hurt"
To emphasize that point, Great Collections recently modified their available shipping options. Previously, the least expensive shipping option...
I recently won this 1832 LM-1 Capped Bust Half Dime in a Heritage auction. I was busily patting myself on the back for a $68 hammer win when I...
Pub pie came out perfectly delicious! OK, all I can make out on this half dime is that it's the small stars variety (caused by lapping the rusted...
All we can go by is the photo presented here. I don't like to presume defects that are not in evidence. That said, I agree with the disdain for...
Very nice looking coin. I'm thinking it graded 65 CAM even though I can recognize an argument for a 64.
I really like that idea. I remember mentioning an edge view slab to the new President of PCGS at FUN a couple years ago but nothing came of it....
My response will be delayed. I'm in the middle of a cooking experiment - making my first pub pie.
