SEGS is a second teir service, but they do a pretty good job with non modern coins. I would say they got this one right. Nice pickup.
Well uncirculated red is pretty common, but grades of 66 and better are a little tougher than you might think.
Well I never said I could take a decent image, but here's my dansco 71-D. A decent survivor with a relatively weak strike; I'd call it a 64-RB....
One of the reasons is because EAC grading is much different than that of all of the major TPGs. You should read Sheldon's Penny Whimsey, a really...
This would badly damage the surfaces of a proof coin. There should be no rubbing.
Never harshly clean a coin. Yes, that still holds true, but it is perfectly acceptable to properly dip a coin. There are several ways of doing...
Hard to trust a high grade Zinclon. Sent while on bourbon street. [ATTACH]
Love it, mines more of a chocolate with purple foil. [ATTACH][ATTACH]
Is that one of yours? Jack was a good friend and a member of our local club; I've been wanting to get my hands on one of his coins for a while...
67 seems pretty optimistic to me especially if it would make it a high dollar condition rarity. PCGS is very well aware of their population...
I love how "Doug who?" is the current leader of the poll.
I chuckled at the first image as well but understood the intent. You have to admit that if that were the only image that it would be funny and...
I'd go with a fifteenth century ducat for the bribe. I may even get a Doug like for such a great suggestion.
I agree, the bottom of the wreath really has an unnatural glossy look.
That would be my guess as well. Not quite whizzed, but cleaned mechanically in some way. I can't make out what they are seeing in the images though.
You will certainly be a small fish in a big pond, but this shouldn't discourage you at all. These large shows are a great learning experience and...
I see a nice AU-50. I think that some of the weaknesses have more to do with the weak strike rather than wear. Use the stars as a reference as to...
All of the old fixtures are coming out to be replaced with older cast iron fixtures, so I won't need to cut anything. The top sealer will be a bar...
I'm redoing my currently pink bathroom floor with a mosaic of wheat cents. My first task it to find thousands of clean (free of gunk or verdigris)...
I'm not sure what some of you are using as your price guides, but $10, $100? That's just crazy. That being said, I would look a bit further if...
Separate names with a comma.
