1. Teletrade was an auction company many years ago. I think they actually started in the pre-internet days and conducted auctions via teletype. I...
That's a website I don't use as often as I should. I knew the 1308 part, but I missed the significance of the 5 initially. I was trying to puzzle...
It doesn't have cents, but the giant V is at least some indication of its value.
Interesting, but not terribly valuable. Do separate out the older coins, because they are silver.
How bad do you want it? That's really the rule: if you really want it, and its a truly special coin, bid high or you will regret it. Let me give...
Talk about an awesome weekend! Have fun!
I don't see any red flags. I'm going to vote "authentic."

You can't have an E with doubling to the right and a P right next to it with doubling to the left. That's just not how hub doubling works.

Sure, I understand that the steam press is a major change in technology. But to me, the series ends in 1838. Only my opinion, of course.
I have been away from the boards for personal reasons for a few weeks, and have apparently missed the first few in this series (although I do...
I voted 65, not full steps. Although, based on your recent series of grading posts..... I could see this anywhere from 62 to 69 * FS. I...
I don't understand their disdain for reeded edge capped bust halves. I can understand cutting it off at the Seated series, but RE CBH are really...
