I always just assumed PCI accepted gassed coins and straight graded them. I guess that's a horribly wrong assumption?
That looks nice. What kind of witchcraft and sorcery do they use to restore?
I've often been conflicted on whether or not to send a coin to VSS first, then get it graded later with that cert staring them in the face. I...
This for buying. eBay is somewhat a litmus test that falls between retail and wholesale prices. I'm also seeing a whole lot more auctions with...
Can you explain "play with"? Was it on display at the show? I'd be nervous as a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs if I were charged...
That's a tough break. I can't grade Peace dollars accurately at all. Blazers I've sent off came back AU55. I do have a question though. Can't...
Doesn't look like fake toning to me. Just worried about terminal toning on that rim, as you say.
My biggest concern is the reverse at the bottom rim at ONE. That looks weird. I "think" this is album toning, but what do I know? I have...
Just pulled the trigger on another empty hole in my Morgan collection quest. 1886S. I'm not a fan of toning, but I find small wins where I can,...
Bought this raw back before Christmas. The idiots at USPS just delivered it today. It came here locally, went to Puerto Rico, then back to the...
They need to be cooked in hot grease, not too big, and dipped quickly and drained. You don't want either soggy doughballs nor pieces of a space...
Hush puppies are an art, not a science. Poorly prepared, horrible. Done right, nectar of the gods. Hopefully they were chock full of diced onions....
Glad you folks had a good time! I just don't care one bit for Orlando. Just curious, how many of you snowbirds wore shorts? Orlando is a lot...
That's the way I bought my 2000 Silver Eagles that came from the mint. 2 Square tubes of 20 with a twist off cap. My tubes were soft plastic....
Pickin I was looking at some semi-key Morgan dates today and wandered over to the PCGS registry for a graded coin for sale and landed in a place...
My very first submission I tried to keep things light. As it ended up, I toted a box and submitted 50 coins at the ANACS booth at a coin show.:eek::p
I cracked out a basement slab once, I used this method too, with the channel lock pliers. Was easy.
What is it's grade? It's hard to get pricing on any of that era's sovereigns. I'd like to get my small sack appraised one day. Nobody in the...
I didn't realize partial silver Kennedys go for $8. 20 years ago should have been coin hunting half dollar rolls. Not much point in that anymore.
Would you say there is date doubling underneath the 188 or lighting shadows? I have a hard time telling the difference.
