I don't believe it. This one got by me. No knot and the leaf position of the two leaves under the left upright of M make the Reverse Y (Breen W) a...
I have used Heritage and Holmes sale photos for purposes of identification of varieties on this board. I'm thinking there is a research only...
I am going with Fr2 because I finally noticed one of the pictures shows the reverse and it does have some detail.
This is a nice B1 or Fr2 (depends on what I suspect is near flat reverse) which is still identifiable as the very scarce S-83. This is because...
Great Pictures! Some people may defer to my attributions, but I defer to Conder. You are a true treasure.
To the point of making the change quickly, I suggest we eliminate the $1, $2 and $5 paper notes and replace them with the current assortment of $1...
I don't think it ever got past the discussion stage, which is true of a lot of things they discuss.
I pulled these from Heritage Auctions and these three were sold about 2005. My budget is a bit smaller than that required for these beauties.
This shows why I'm better at attribution and an easy mark for fakes. My first clue was that the reverse is not the reverse of 1804. Look under the...
I'm glad you got the help you needed. Your post sent me on a treasure hunt because I was sure I had the 1991 Redbook. I looked all over and...

Mature markets like the US tend to regulate commerce so that the rule of thumb is "Caveat Vendor" often translated 'let the seller beware.'...
Scenario 1 - A coin was circulated a bit before it tones and then was put away. Would this not naturally tone evenly? Scenario 2 - A coin is put...
This is a C-1 with the leaf centered under N. Both the others are centered under the left foot of N. Those are distinguished by the top leaf which...
If memory serves me correctly, each coin is looked at for about 5 seconds by a TPGer whose primary duty is about the GRADE and secondarily the...
What would make this coin suspicious? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230706623872
A double profile on these early dates before the use of hubs is usually a striking error where the planchet shifts slightly between strikes. It is...
I used to think that. Now, with weak eyes, the ability to blow the pictures up is all that allows me to 'see' the coin at all.
I occasionally put in a low bid on a coin just so that it appears on my bid list. My watch list has become very large because adding it there is...
