This coin will not appreciate in value. So if you want to buy it, buy it. Unless you feel there are untold antics in the previous acquisition. But...
Except those graded examples are phonies. And will not command a higher price as the market will fall for those coins if no one wants them at sky...
Just because it's probably PMD doesn't mean it was intentional.
It looks real. It's not very valuable. And if it has been cleaned, even less. People will clean them and try to pass them off at a higher grade. I...
Unless there's 3 of these coins total, it is going to destroy the value. 50% is being generous. In many cases I am in the 80-90% group on this. In...
The first 2 digits are clearly 18 so it would be 1886-1899. But that makes it a 3.1 gram coin. Perhaps check the scale, calibrate, weigh again,...
They weighed 4.67 all the way to 1864. Agree on corrosion. I can't make out the 3rd digit. The 4th digit looks like an 8 (if that's even a digit)...
Anything you do intentionally is considered AT. Personally, I don't even care for NT. People like rainbow colors, but I think that fad is ending....
Show photos. If it's not a steel cent, (weigh it 2.7g) then it's a Chinese fake. Why would you put this coin in olive oil? I think that's only for...
Why not try to tone a 1964 Kennedy or Franklin half as a test, before ruining a bust half? And I have to agree with post #2. Throw some old...

Schroedingers coin. It exists, and it doesn't exist.
It's not worth much more than .01 cent. It's not going to be MS 68 it's not going to be worth $30-$50 to get a coin graded that's worth 1 cent....
I see a lot of people have this coin as AU (details). To me, there is nothing about the obverse that is AU in any way. It shows significant wear,...
Yes there's not many things that you can use, unless you are very knowledgeable about what you are doing it's best to use nothing. Not even mild...
No. Usually, if they dump too many coins in at once that can cause it. Also, once a coin gets rejected (foreign coin, wrong metal) often some...
I know you know what they look like. I was interested in seeing them. Forget it. Have a nice day.
Yeah I thought it was but I didn't remember, and I didn't feel like digging mine out or abusing Gizoogle. So I just edited it. I knew that it was...
It's about 100% that this is not a genuine 1849 California 50 cent gold coin. Tell me more about his research and the 7 that exist. Please provide...
Yes of course I could search for a photo online. What I was asking, was if anyone had any of these silver granules, and if they could show a...
