The coin is real, IMO. First photo makes it look weird. The coin appears to be mint state, but I'd like to see a photo of the obverse taken in...
lol I miss it too from time to time. You might want to look into the feature where it e-mails you when you get a PM.
How do you know this was made in China, or is even contemporary? I must admit, I'm skeptical of that part (not that it's countefeit)....
You should be able to do better than that. Keep looking...or save. Good things come to those who wait. :)
Yes, that does change my response. :) The point being, I wouldn't assume ANYTHING from these slabs, other than the coin is real. I've seen...
By way of comparison, here's my 66 (also graded by NGC): [img] [img] Please excuse my old, and slightly out of focus photos. I hope you all...
Great post, Troll! Well said.
With all due respect, Cave Troll, this coin (unless it is in ultra-high grade) wouldn't be advertised any differently based on who submits it....
p.s. if you're interested in purchasing a coin like this, I would suggest you just get the entire proof set from the year -- they are common, and...

Speak for yourself, please. I sell for a living and I have never cheated anyone.
Jack, I think you are overestimating the ability of most dealers when it comes to pricing. Sure, the specialist will know their area, but it is a...
My advice: 1) have the coin assessed in-hand by a professional. ask them if it is real, and if so, if it is likely to be graded by PCGS. 2) send...
p.s. EXCELLENT COIN!
TPG grade AU 58 or 55 (I think the TPGs would consider this coin market acceptable -- and I agree). EAC grade VF 35 or XF 40 (net)
Damn you! :) You're right. Longacre doubling it is. Think the date is repunched though, no?
Wow, that's really good to hear! BRAVO!!!
Bingo, my first thought too. Quite frankly, if I were in the OP's shoes, I'd just send the coin back. These are not uncommon coins, and a nicer...
I'd think AU 58 to be safe. ;)
