It is a matter of die pressure. On a normal business strike, the pressure would be way too low for the lettering to be struck well enough. With...
That seems like a very fair price for what I'm assuming is a MS-62/3 coin. On a side note though, St. Gaudens pieces have not trended gold prices...
FINALLY! Sorry that it took so long to get to you. The truth is that my hands won't let me part with anything numismatic, but my theropist...
I just gave it to my shipping guy at work and he sent it out. He sent it ground which is likely the delay. HE'S FIRED!!!
I just tracked the bill and it looks like it should arrive on Tuesday. I had no idea that UPS would take nearly ten days or I would have used...
I have a 1962 PCGS PR-67 Franklin half to trade for a raw one of equal quality. I could just crack it out, but I figure someone may rather have...

I received the note from Mrs. Karen today. I told Charmy "The Penny Lady" about it, and I'll get her to sign it at the ANA show in the morning...
Sounds like a good deal. Let's see the Trade dollar.
Choice G, no question about it. I have always loved that design.
I especially like the half dollars and my new Jefferson set. I'm surprised you parted with a few of those especially the 62 proof. Hope you...

So what year are we on anyway?

You can deface a coin that you own if you like, but you can not melt copper cents. It is both illegal and unprofitable.
It doesn't sound bad, but pictures would help.
It is perfectly legal to deface a coin, it is just not encouraged by collectors.
I am certainly not an expert on that particular coin, but I can see a difference in the quality of the strike. This leads me to believe that you...
