Yeah, for some reason it seems to frequently show a number one greater than the number of repliers to the thread. It seems to be a bug of some sort.
this is the method I use too, it is quite easy.
Also if the coin has obvious wear on the high points but it is shiny there too it is reprocessed.
lol, a $1000 Christmas budget for a 12 year old doesn't sound particularly middle class to me!
rotfl! Victor, I recommend opening an account there. Usually they will have one that costs you nothing and then you can write your first check...
Which image are you talking about? His picture of his bust half, or his avatar (little pic next to his name), or my photo that was inbedded in my...
I would expect modern mint proof sets to have PF67+ coins in them. Anything lower than that and I would likely return it for a replacement.
seems that this seller is innocent here (though ignorant). I contacted him to let him know it is a fake and he said that under a glass it shows...
Before sending it anywhere you need to get an exact weight for it (yes that will require opening the set up). If it weighs 11.5 grams then you...
P.S. obverse 1 (101 and 102 only) is the only obverse with the proper star 7 to headband alignment, so since the T-I alignment rules out 101 it...
I came up with 102 as well. The Diagnostic is the filled in point on the right inside angle of the N of United. Here is the photo from Peterson:...

doh! [img] I don't know what I was thinking, lol. I stand corrected :headbang: The Kennedy silver round is 6 troy ounces and at $11.28/oz that...
I stand corrected, thankfully! I last purchased coins in IA a couple of months ago and the law was still in effect, but I'm glad to see the change.
The changes to the design on the reverse of the new Jeffs really strengthened the steps, I'd expect full steps on nearly all of the '06 Nickels,...
I grew up in IA and the state charges sales tax on all coin purchases. The vendors who don't collect the tax are probably not true dealers, but...
well there is a load of propaganda for ya! That is the mint's story and their stickin to it, but the legal battle over the ownership of those...
both pieces are considered strictly bullion and they carry very little (if any) collector value beyond their bullion value. The Kennedy is 6...
I enjoy digging through my dealer's junk silver bin. Occassionally there are better dates in there. I found an unc 55 Franklin and a 21 Walker...
I bought a new ANACS slab and lightly ran my thumb around the top edge and the slab started to seperate on me. I wasn't trying to open or break...
