Indeed! Pay him back by learning to cherrypick! :D
OK, I'm not going to fight with you. How old are you? ....just curious. Once again, completely incorrect statements you've made there. With...
That is completely and utterly incorrect. There's only TWO components necessary to begin the verdigris formation process: AIR AND WATER I'm...
That's actually almost correct. Verdigris is NOT "PVC on copper". Here's a quick summary of how PVC damages: 1) The plasticizer breaks-down and...
That would be a complete waste IMO. Verdigris salts mostly are insoluble in oil. Coin Care is nothing more than napthenic mineral oil with a...
First off... There's so much misinformation and folklore surrounding verdigris it just amazes me. I really can't wait to finish my book to teach...
My dealer charges me $25 flat. I think you should be able to find a dealer with a similar price there. Don't go back to that guy ever again....

I thought my offer was GENEROUS for a PMD coin. A VF 1941 is worth about 2-3 cents max to me....in fact, I wouldn't knowingly even buy a 1941 cent...
Here's the reverse of another peace dollar found in that collection. The obverse makes it easy to see the coin's been "Whitmanized"! LOL
I pulled this coin from an old Whitman. Based on the documentation found with the collection, it was started c.a. 1938. Love it or hate it, it's...
Only what someone is willing to pay. ;) If I remember, that dealer was trying to sell one to me for like $10. I offered $2 just to have a...
Not sure if I've seen a branch mint one yet or not. I don't pay much attention to these, they pop up now and then. I don't think the MM has...
WOW! I can't believe this new die hasn't been figured out until now! Thanks for the story Charmy! :D
How did you have them stored?
