In your case, the lump under BE is strong, even if the chips in the date are questionable. I've looked at a lot of 1800s and sometimes push the...
I cannot come up with a better match than S-170; however, I cannot dismiss a few points on the reverse that give me pause. 1. I see no evidence...
I found good edges on the Boka Collection sight for 94s. But edges just don't get photographed very often, so any photos you could make would be...
Both obverse and reverse lead me to the same coin. S-22. Obverse diagnostics include position of the R high above the head and hair curls from...
Perhaps our different experiences have affected our view of the slabbers. you trust them because you were treated right. I do not because I wasn't.
If it's fake, then there is a whole new level of detail which has not been seen and would put all coins, even originals, at risk of being lost in...
I'm glad to hear someone was treated right. That wasn't my experience or the experience of many others. They were always nice enough to accept...
I wouldn't mind a S-55 like yours.

I suppose the Courts could disregard the disclaimers in the contract like they did when Ralph Nader was causing problems for the Auto Industry. Of...
ps I was talking about Die Polishing and not coin polishing. The former is a product of the mint while the latter is PMD. Also, the edges are...

They are selling trust. Lawyers are selling accountability avoidance. Policy indicates the slabbers are listening to their lawyers. Therefore I DO...
By the way, I now think it is an early Die State V with the better pictures since the clash marks at the neck have been polished away while the...

It appears that 1 pound is currently worth just under $1.30. So a 1000 pound estimate would convert to about $1300. I pulled up these comparables...
Good for you. And your kids are lucky too.
It's too well toned to have been recently done. Kids in the 1800s really weren't that different. The consequences were; however, far different....
Good Attribution. It was a bit more difficulty due to PMD at the HWH making it appear to peak under the far right of the R unlike any known 1803....
Separate names with a comma.
