I was late on voting, but got 2/4 spot on
Yes, I'm aware this would be the cull bin find of my life if it is what I'm suggesting it could be. The diagnostics in the Cherry Pickers guide...
I've been checking 1922 Peace Dollars for the tell-tale ray that extends past the N (on the reverse in "One Dollar") & think I finally found one....
Is the field chatter on this going to knock it into an AU grade? Or is wear on the design elements more important for this series?
I'd either get a 1906 US Philippines Peso in VF or better (good luck finding one that hasn't been cleaned), a high grade 1915 Expo Commemorative...
Just received this (haven't had a chance to take it home, so I'm photographing it in the 2x2 it came in. It looks better in person than the...
For some coins (ie, mint packaged proof sets or modern commemoratives) I can understand why a stock photo makes sense. It's often due to inventory...
A CoA or other pedigree will help push the value of this up (between $40 & $500 at a guess). Without that, I wouldn't pay more than $20.

This, x1000. Put it on a note with the coins, along with his name, service number, & any other detsils you have. Any coin with a story is...
If memory serves, France (under Napoleon), Mexico (under Maximillian), AustroHungary, the Holy Roman Empire, and Imperial Rome also may have...

Perhaps due to the spike in silver prices around that time that led many countries to abandon the silver standard?
I have a whole thread on cleaning rust off of some Morgans. Lime is slightly less acidic than lemon (with half the sugar), and seems to have done...
Ah, didn't see that. Thanks.
I think they're collectible as counterfeits, and the main difference between adding one to your collection and adding a placeholder marked "copy"...
I went with 65. We'll see if middle aged silver gets the same high grades for minimal wear as that gold piece did.
