Very nice! I'm sure that set you back a pretty penny. ;) . Is the last one remaining 1921-D by any chance?
Yeah, my first thought was damage. Then I saw the reverse and that it came from an UNC roll, so now I’m not sure.
I'd try for about tree fiddy.
Ouch. Even without knowing exactly what's in it, that type set alone could easily be $50-100k or more.
That coin wow'ed me due to more than just condition. Everything about it is pretty amazing.
Apparently, so do I (according to the internets), but I have many copper and bronze coins and have never had a serious problem. Honestly, I've...
I think I see where you're getting that from, but what makes it look QC to you? I'll give you that if this were an MS coin, I'd probably be...
Paid: $150 Sold: $250 Just out of curiosity, @Lehigh96, did it cross to PCGS at PR65RB? I'm a little surprised NGC didn't call it BN, and I'd be...
I was wobbling between 63 and 64 based mostly on the reed mark on the face. I chose 64 in the end.
Well done. Now, you just need to invest in a nice coin cabinet fitting of such a high quality collection. ;)

PCGS quotes a survival estimate of 850 coins in all grades for 1796.
If I saw the same sort of colors on an MS coin, I would be much more skeptical. But, proof coins do tone differently from MS coins, and, for some...
I think at $25, it would be a cheap lesson. I would treat it and keep an eye on it over the next few months to a year.
Depending how much you paid for it and whether it was showing signs of bronze disease in the auction photos, I would consider sending this one...
Hmm. Y'all weren't even really close, unless you were trying to guess per coin. I paid $450 for the set. IMO, that was a strong price, but...
Any more guesses? Remember, you’re guessing the price I paid for the set, not individual coins.
Nailed it! Although I have some quibbles with the CAC sticker.
If it were me, I would wait for the problem free VF coin, or, maybe also take that time to save up to get a problem free XF-40. But, I am also...
I disagree completely. No amount of provenance exempts any coin from being graded on its own merits. These dark blotches were a major reason why...
