The pumpkin is currently roasting to make my pie. I got off easy this year - going to a friend's house, and all they asked me to bring was a...
Two solutions for this: first, they make square crimping staplers. These shape the prongs so that they lay flat, and won't damage the plastic...
Can you show me where that "rule" comes from? Because NGC has definitely graded AU Jeffersons with FS, if you look at their census. I'm not sure...
I selected MS-64 5FS. The luster appears good and the strike is strong, but there are a lot of conact marks in the fields (especially reverse)....
Today's category is "most beautiful coin with a dead person," and my entry is this 1963 Franklin: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I don't think it was cleaned, but there are some pretty serious scratches on the obverse, especially around the date. I think this coin would come...
I have this one, and have never been disappointed with it: https://www.wizardcoinsupply.com/precision-pocket-scale-100-x-.01-g.html You can get a...
Honestly, I don't see the point of the early bird passes. I think you get in one hour earlier. The day is already long enough! Others may have a...

Alright, let's have a Holiday Blast! I'll be posting 3 of these today, to keep us busy over the holiday. I'll post the answer on Saturday. Let's...
The "vending machine lobby" has always been a strong influence on coin sizes and metals. However, their days are numbered. I'd argue that a large...
Oh, I absolutely agree that some of them deserve it. Some of them don't. And sometimes they don't get it even when they deserve it. I'm just using...
I don't find it strange at all. Many of these members inherited or found an old coin, signed up to ask a specific question, and may or may not...
No. I'm saying PCGS and NGC are both wrong, if they both label this as a retained cud. What you show is correctly referred to as a rim to rim die...
I'll go with "Most Beautiful Foreign Coin" next: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Many shows charge an entrance fee. Many are free as well. The ANA show, for example, charges $8 a day for general public, but is free for ANA...
