I think the 1907-1916 design era was a brilliantly artistic exception to the rule. But nothing modern has any artistic merit at all. The WB...
Why are most medals more artistic than most production coinage? Nothing is cheaper than the WB cent reverses.
I have to admit I'm not a fan of any TPGs, but PCGS seems to be better than the rest. I have 18 entombed Coins. 13 PCGS - 1 error S-45 Labeled...
This is one I think they back into. I think they discounted for Die State weakness at the fraction, E and OF which they shouldn't have done to...
I'll be interested in their opinion.
Walkers were very popular 50-70 years ago. They were so much prettier than either Franklins or Kennedys and were still readily available.

It would be interesting to know the backstory of Josie E. Roff and the significance of July 12, 1863. There's nothing from a quick search on the...

I got bit by the Half Bug. But the first was a problem coin with a light and not too distracting graffiti or love token on the obverse (and what...
Dolonega Gold is GREAT!

The grade will be high enough that I could see anything from XF to MS depending on luster and surfaces which are difficult to see in photos. EAC...
I checked the 1806 and the obverse looked possible, but the reverse is way off with much wider spacing at F A.
The leaf under M is in the wrong place for S-146 and the leaf under F is in the wrong place for S-147. The stems seem short for most of the 1798s....
I'm afraid you have me on this one. Unless that's a crack from just below the lips to the rim, I don't see anything that I could hang my hat on....
Just acquired. Got a good price because it's got a very weak date and sold as type only, but otherwise is a nice planchet. I immediately...
Separate names with a comma.
