$90 on the quarter. I wouldn't go that far. Even the reverse is far better than the schlock e-d-marketing puts out (though I suspect most of...
Sorry for the late reveal, but @Pickin and Grinin is closest this time. The actual sale price was $279. I had my eye on this coin for a couple...
I don't have the images on any computer I have access to at the moment, so I'm posting this instead: [IMG] PCGS PR67, price guide is $16....
I did. :) I bought an amazingly well struck (even for the date) 1917 ANACS MS65 FH with some really nice toning and stellar luster and eye appeal....
Sorry for the late reveal... this coin sold for $2399 on eBay a few months ago, and I still wish I had had the money to try and work out a deal...
Visibility bump... 5 hours until the reveal.
Just in case anyone is wondering, price guide for MS66 FH is $1350, 66+ FH is $2000.
Let's save that for later until we see whether @EyeAppealingCoins is going to post one.

I do, but I wonder if it might not be more interesting to have people guess first. I don't want to derail the thread though......
Sadly, no. I did, however, manage to console myself with another wildly toned MS65 FH 1917 T1. It may make an appearance here if I get another...
Not to derail the contest, but, going back to pretty SLQs, I really, really wanted this one for my type set a while back, but didn't have the cash...
It seems like it would be so easy to regulate this with items that have a date stamped on them.... I would personally have no regrets buying...
If that's a fake, it's a pretty impressive one.
I think either way, you're in for a $40 lesson. One thing you can do is buy it, take it to a coin show, and show it to a few dealers asking what...
When it comes to coins, looking for bargains often just gets you a bunch of dogs nobody would want to buy from you. Quality is definitely worth...
Your example coin is a US nickel. You know they're 75% copper and only 25% nickel, right? ;)
I kind of like that. It looks a lot like one of the drawings in an old-time coin book.
+1 fake. Maybe buried and/or treated with acid to look older and remove traces of the casting process. The difference between 17g of .995...
Neat, and, while I'm sure it can only be "ΓAΛBΛ", I'm not really seeing the Γ in there. Am I blind, or is it just hard to see?
