Today, I left the place without buying it - but I did find one at another nearby flea market for $2.25. Probably 1/5 of it is missing but it is...
Here's what happened: Carr studied the 1955 doubled die, thought "How dramatic can I make it?", then ran out of copper pennies, so he decided to...
Here are the pictures. Forgot to add them on a few seconds ago.[ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I'm thinking it's F-VF, got the chance to buy this for $38.50 from a flea market. What do you think the grade is?
I have not had this case directly affect me, but my dad did go to school with a lady who called the police on a kid because he was trying to pay...
Believe it or not, that's exactly what I was thinking! At first, I looked at it and was going to sell it as an AU, but I made sure to inspect it....
That is some nice toning on the 1880! Those CCs are really nice as well.
Looks uncirculated to me but I am somewhat unsure since my paper money grading is crap. What do you grade it?[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
An XF? Looks like you may have undergraded it. The coin looks to have some wear, but it could make a nice AU piece. Remember this when you find...
There may have been a bit more zinc or tin in them at the time, since they tend to tone differently than some others. I can compare a graded...
I don't really know if they could make a fake that looks that bad. I've seen some fakes look quite worn, but these people never do go for...
1872 Seated Liberty Quarter- Fine Details- Possible S Mintmark? | eBay If it is an S, it's coming home to me. What do you think?
JOP dollars? I'll have to research those. That sounds quite interesting, but I assume it was a counterstamp. So, if it was you, you'd probably go...
Of course we want the 67! LOL, jokes aside, you have an awesome point about those coins. Sometimes you find a very nice looking old coin, and it...
I assume you're talking about an SLQ - which is awesome! The closest I've gotten to that is a 1917 Type 1, but I'd love to find a 1916 any day.
I agree with you on sticking to unchopped dollars. A trade dollar is one of many coins I haven't owned, but have seen behind a 2x2 and almost...
One of my local coin shops has trade dollars, a couple of which I've been thinking of buying. One is an 1877 Philly, in solid VF condition, and it...
I collect these things with a burning passion. On the dealing side, I am primarily in coins, bullion, and currency, but tokens like these are up...
That..... sounds like a weirdly awesome idea! I'm unsure how I could prove something as to who touched it, but it could've been by anyone. If I...
Maybe I oughta squeeze that 1904-S a little longer! Mr. Whipple hasn't been around, so I've been able to get a lot more coin squeezing done. I...
