I don't have any set limit, but I do quite a bit of study before diving into a collection so that I know what I am buying. Frankly, I treat...
I have 37 in my inbox right now, so if I haven't replied to you yet, don't worry I will soon.
It is never a good idea to buy a coin that you plan to upgrade, you will almost certainly lose on the transaction. Find a coin that you can be...
Click on my avatar coin, then "start conversation". I've had quite a few sign up over the weekend, i believe we are up to forty already.

With the hit being incuse (stamped into the coin, rather than risen off of the surface), it is almost certainly just damage. There are twenty two...

Honesty 64 seems a bit tough on it. Lovely piece.
Thanks Christian, I'm not sure why I couldn't figure it out, I've done it before.
I've never been much of a die variety guy, but the 3cn is really a cool series. For series collectors, it is pretty challenging in the later...
Thanks, that's sort of what I figured, but it's pretty rare that I submit a coin for grading, so I'm not too familiar with their policies anymore....
My '73 open 3 PCGS PR-64 has nearly identical verdigris on the reverse. I bought it last year off of eBay with a horrible image. I stole that coin...
