Hopefully I can get there pretty soon. I'm going to a coin club meeting tomorrow, so I'll try to get to the laundromat.
Honestly, betting $60 in a way that it'll come back as a 70 is kinda like a gamble. LOL
Truly it depends on eye appeal. We may have a coin like a Seated Liberty dime that is an MS for sure, but has very little eye appeal. To be...
I do admit, I am a pretty good coin grader. If you have an Indian Head penny, I could about look at it from 3 feet away and tell you the...
If the fees are that high, it may not be worth it. A lot of those proof 70 coins really don't have a true market price, as an NGC PR70 "worth" $80...
I'm also quite doubtful that it's an actual 70. It is a strong candidate, though, for a 69. In all honesty I'm quite shocked that they actually...
How long has it been since you found the first quarter? I've been looking for a way to find silver like that. I've been roll hunting for months,...
I have in my possession a 1964 proof penny graded by INB as PR70, and after looking at the coin, it could actually be a proof 70 red(?!) The...
You mean Accugrade actually undergraded? That sounds like.... uhhhh.... very weird lol. I have never owned an Accugrade coin, but I might get one...
That's quite a few coins! I wish I could buy some of those off of you.
What label color did the old PCI have? I'm wondering because I have one of theirs in a gold label.
Honestly I haven't checked it out. I believe it's $4,320, which is a little ridiculous for that if it could even be AU. Then again, I have seen a...
That's a little strange if they are a fake grading company. I've actually seen a gold eagle graded MS69 (I'm pretty sure it's 1986 1/2 oz).
To be honest, that rabbit looks like it has an IQ of 200. That's saying a lot, though, especially in coins! ;)
That sounds quite cool! A Walking Saint Gaudens Liberty. :)
I know this is an old thread, but a circulated coin can actually be prooflike. In fact, I think PCGS and NGC have certified AU-55 and 58 PL...
A previous post of mine about pre-1933 gold coin denomination resurrections mentioned a design similar to the 1870 standard 1 dollar pattern coin....
Here's my philosophy on them: -----LOT OF MS68 GRADED 1881-S MORGAN SILVER DOLLARS---- We recently bought an estate collection of 1881-S Morgan...
It appears to be a grease error, but I believe the coin has been cleaned. It may be surprising for such a young penny, but often a more reddish...
SGS, or Star Grading Service, was the grading "company" of an Ebay seller who graded his own coins and sold them. Deceptive grades would usually...
