And CAC , PQ stickers. If I win this, I'll vault to the lead in my registry set! ;)
I was purely speculating. I agree that at 1% it wouldn't be rare/scarce. That's kind of where my thinking was going. So let's say it was one...
These are not my cup of tea. I don't think they are worth it, at least not to me.
Me too. I bought a 45-S Merc dime with some nice toning. We will see how well i judged the sellers pics.
I'm trying to image one right now. I bought it at a coin show for my Dansco 7070. It's a great coin for this purpose. I'm struggling to get the...
@desertgem and @Kentucky , NOW I completely understand why someone would use mercury. I never knew that mercury amalgamated. That's pretty cool.
Mike, I chose the 1915. So what do you see on that coin where you recommend not grading it? I'm looking to learn what you're seeing.
But why mercury? I get the plating portion of your response.
okay guys (@paddyman98 , @lovecoinswalkingliberty ), teach me. Why mercury? Why not some other metal plating? Was this a popular science...

@Paddy54 , your pics are a little out of focus. Gold is tough enough to judge in pictures. What's your opinion? I think the 1915 $5 has an...
I have different bidding strategies based on the site (eBay, HA, Stack's). My bidding strategy is rarely straightforward. LOL.
You could use a Dino Lite for bulk. It would be slower going for sure, but it depends on what you are trying to accomplish. My desktop monitor...
Probably my favorite. I just LOVE the Charter Oak tree. I posted this on another thread, but I once passed up a Hammered specimen in an HA...
Thanks. Stick around CT. I think you'll like it here. Sure, there are many sarcastic response flying around at times (Me included), but the...
I agree Steven. But, I also own a number of coins where the TPG grade and CAC sticker are well deserved. That doesn't mean I will only buy that...
In general, I agree with your position. People in general just need to be courteous to each other and things would be a lot better. For this...
Have you considered a USB Microscope like a Dino Lite? I have 2 of them with stands and a Bausch and Lomb 10x loupe.
