This half is the only Reiver-pedigreed coin I have but I was happy to get it at last January's FUN show. This is the O-110 "Two Leaves" variety...
@Inspector43, I notice that you have used the original backgrounds from when you shot the photos. They are slightly different in color, to my...
I don't know what Photostage is. If you Google "Photoscape X" up will come this link: [ATTACH] Click on that and then make your choice of the...
Yes, that Liberty Seated dime was improperly coined in what is termed "Medal Turn", probably due to one of the dies being a little loose and...
You can download the free software Photoscape X and use the "Combine" function to mosaic your obverse and reverse photos.
@Paddy54, thanks for the reply. I have checked my Valentine, Breen (not the encyclopedia) and Revier resources and can find no reference to a...
I can only speak as a bidder/buyer, not a consignor: I have found GC to be responsive and businesslike. I have corresponded with Ian by email...
A couple of days ago I picked up a 1831 LM-5 half dime in the Fixed Price List sale of Steve Crain half dimes. I don't have it in hand yet, just...

Congratulations on your graduation and the lovely vista ahead of you. Nice coins and it's nice to see students and teachers still having personal...
Nice coin. I like it.
My local coin club uses these donations at our table at our and other coin shows as give-aways to possible YNs. Can't wait until we can get back...
Never lost a coin but did mis-place a child once. Survived that but only because the wife was complicit. Eventually found the boy in the church...
This coin should straight-grade. The adjustment marks are just that and not a cause for rejection since they are mint-made. The rim bumps are...
An editorial in the August, 2020 CDN Publishing "The CAC Rare Coin Market Review" discusses the increase in value of CAC coins and what appears to...
Wow, out of about 14 responses only one actually addressed my original question. Thanks @dddd. I guess just mentioning CAC is like touching the...
So, DLRC is instituting a new feature to show coins more dynamically. Here is the link to their announcement:...
After seeing the video, my opinion of the coin has risen and the likelihood of having been improperly cleaned has gone down. My original answer...
Jump in, the water's fine. Ignore those fins, they're probably porpoises. Seriously, coin grading and evaluation is subjective so there will...
