I wasn't worried when he said they would go out by Wednesday at the latest, but I hope I can get my recipient today. I'm going to a coin show...
Have you considered an MS70 (or better MS70PL) 2017 palladium eagle? Other than that, I'd buy gold with numismatic value over bullion.
I haven't been able to source any of the Kodak light machine oil, but I found https://www.grainger.com/product/STARRETT-Mineral-Machine-Oil-2ZVL1....
I'm assuming these are double eagles. If so the price is on the lower side of average. With the slump in gold prices recently, a lot of dealers...
Humor aside, that's tougher to call since grading is subjective, and they'd likely make you pay for a re-grade. Whereas something like the wrong...
Literally they happen all the time. If I didn't watch my submissions like a hawk and contact NGC before my coins go out, I'd probably have at...
Kalman, I keep my collection on collectivecoin, which is a free site run by Stack's Bowers: https://collectivecoin.com/jaelus
This. It feels like a regular holder that has a coating on it. I've had a lot of coins reholdered and it automatically comes with the...
I've been a vegan for the better part of two decades. People think it's hard but the body adjusts quickly. After you switch your diet, your tastes...
I think coin B is probably the 64 due to the surfaces, but coin A has a slightly better strike (or possibly from different dies). Either way I...
The surface of a coin isn't always metallic. I don't get the distinction you're trying to make. Obviously just about anything you do to a coin...
Dipping or otherwise properly cleaning a coin is an attempt at conservation of the coin to make it appear its best, but fundamentally the coin...
Because it's 2017 and it's a huge inconvenience to insist on someone using an obsolete payment method? A lot of people don't have checkbooks,...
This probably won't come as much of a surprise, but it depends. It adds flexibility. I have 4 lights with my copy stand. It came with two and I...
Many of the crown sized silver coins had contemporary fakes. I don't have my books with me, but many are listed in Hungarian catalogs as hamis...
Different countries use different grading scales, so it's not necessarily comparable in that way. NGC is as respected as you can get for world...
Pass.
Not for this coin, but you could instead select a coin that was added to the catalog after they started using + grades.
Yes, but first Artex restruck this coin in 1964, not 1965. Don't look at Krause for restrike info, they just put 1965 for everything :rolleyes:....
You could always crack that sucker out and gold plate it.
