I don't see why there' any worse than AGEs. Commems are 90% gold vs 91.67% gold, 3% silver. Not much difference IMO.
Not sure, as this isn't really my area of expertise, but this page lists your coin as worth between $10 and $20. When looking at eBay auctions,...
Nah. Same story as with the wheaties. Cool circulation find, but not worth enough to cover grading fees and such.
"Good condition" is highly relative. That's referring to very high mint state grades. FS is another matter... some dates in the 60s are truly...
Have you been able to find a die match to a COS VI dated coin? Is there only one reverse die known for COS VII? Cool coin!
Lol. They showed a $1 gold when talking about the 1849 double eagle. Seems like a lot of these lists leave out the 1933 Indian $10. One sold a...
Speaking of Apmex, they currently have random $10 BU and proof gold commems for $615.74 apiece, which works out to $1272.72/oz, and I believe that...
I would call it a good start. I have that one and 3 or 4 others.
Your pictures are getting better, but none of them are really sharp enough to tell anything more than it looks like you have a couple of...
Outstanding coin! I did not know Alexandrian coins based the regnal year on the Egyptian calendar. I would have been just as confused about that...
It depends on whether you're the buyer or seller, and what "valuable " means.
That's a fairly convincing fake. What's the giveaway that it's counterfeit?
The doubling is flat and shelf-like. That means it's die deterioration or strike doubling. Another sign of die deterioration is how the I and B...
I don't think a coin show is the best use of your time if you just want to liquidate the collection and get the maximum money out of it. Since...
Hate to say it, but I'm suspicious of all of them as well. The Morgan might be deemed "market acceptable," but the others I'm pretty sure would...
Congratulations! Selling coins at a show as a collector is easy. The only etiquette to observe is that you should never try to sell on the...
I guess I'll throw in a plug for the scale I have here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B012IJCI1Y/ It measures to the nearest 0.001g, and has...
I don't know as I'd even call it a counterfeit, it's so poorly made. Perhaps "non-HPA-compliant replica" would be more appropriate. :P I spotted...
Yes. I'm eyeing a Pertinax. It's from an online seller, so I don't have the ability to inspect the coin before purchase (another factor that's...
Yeah, I calculated it based on AGW. The $10 gold comes out to $616.85/0.4838 = $1275/oz, whereas 1 oz AGEs are currently running between...
Separate names with a comma.
