Check out the reverse. There's a really big scrape through the eagle's wing. The rest of those marks might be adjustment marks, but the one...
At least this one isn't as bad as the MS-62 you posted. I probably would have been happy with a 66 grade here. I only see a few tiny tick marks,...
My immediate thought was Marcus Aurelius or Commodus.
Hmm, wouldn't "shill" imply you were working with them to entice others to buy them at their inflated prices? Supplying them with coins doesn't...
Love this! For those who don't know, the known dates are: 1939, 1944, 1946, 1947 and 1953. Other than '44, these are really hard to find. I...
I agree with everything you wrote here. I voted MS65 because I had a hunch maybe the luster wasn't coming through properly on the photo....
Great coins all! @SeptimusT that is a really nice assortment! I especially like the Indian coins, and your owl tet. :) @Spaniard, I have to say,...

$375
Yeah, one of the giveaways here is "do they have a significant amount of space dedicated to things that aren't coins, e.g. watches, other...
I said 67, no +, for pretty much the same reasons as @ddddd. Unless you've gotta have FS, this coin would be a welcome addition to any...
Last time I went to Long Beach, all but one coin I bought was under $600. Outside of the “big” tables (Legend,etc.) There are plenty of $3-400...
I find this attitude puzzling. If you’re a collector, who cares what other people buy? I don’t mean to sound condescending here, because I like...
Great info as usual, @Jack D. Young. I am, or soon will be, in the market for a large eagle bust dollar for my US type set (1800-present). This...
Well, it's finally time. I need a safe for my collection. What I'm looking for is: Weight as close to 500lbs (empty) as possible. I'd like...
My method is: First, talk to any of my regular dealers who are at the show. Ask any of them who say they don't have it if they know who would,...
Why isn’t the 2 cent bronze looking?
You sound like a good candidate for a type set. The 7070, optionally with the gold page, is a fun collection you can complete in a nice grade for...
I've seen collections that make me feel like less than a fish egg in a huge ocean. Check out the Subway Token Collection of classic...
Yeah, I don't think I could even sell my entire collection for that much. :P Well, technically, any collection can be a budget collection. It's...
