This thing looks like the piece of junk that was offered on TV, except that one was dated "1929" which is "the golden date." The pitch was the...
Here are the the two coins I posted ealier. 1875-S Twenty Cent Piece [ATTACH] 1877-S Trade Dollar. When I bought this piece, the dealer had...
Thank you! Both of those coins are graded MS-63. They are not “investment grade” coins. I’m not sure if they would be crack out candidates given...
As a collector who has completed the type set, the half cent to the gold, as very often defined, I think you might find that you will be...
I have never seen a type coin album or lists, like the one for the NGC registry, which includes weight as a type.
@Publius2 Some dealers come to a show to mostly or only do dealer to dealer wholesale business. They don't care of the sell a coin at the show...
@CoinCorgi, "weight" does not seem to be a type. The silver coins after 1853, with the exception of the silver dollar, which did not change, did...

This one is graded AU-55. [ATTACH] The photos of the coin in the OP are too dark to decide if the piece has artificial toning or not. You need...
The amazing thing about that dealer is that I had bought an 1854-D Three Dollar Gold Piece from them a few months before they started attacking...
Unfortunately it looks like the plastic is turning yellow which is housing the coins. It's probably because it's 42+ years old. Yea, it's a dumb...
AU-58 is one of my favorite grades for old coins which are not easily found in Mint State. It makes no sense to me to have a coin like this 1964-D...
Yes, Fine details, net graded to Good-Very Good because of pitting and corosion. The purists don't like net grading, but you need to use something...
My problem is not with the CAC company but with its extreme advocates. They’ll post stuff like, “CAC has reviewed EVERY worthwhile coin,” “All...
If he doesn’t want it, I might.
It's a good site, but you have to pull your punches with respect to PCGS. I spend more time, and do more teaching here. There are few CAC...
