Quite right, Hullcoins, and thanks! The Small 3 is the pricier. I was looking at the Numismedia FMV page right before typing, and I still got it...
Definitely cleaned, but there are no immediate signs that it's counterfeit. Suppose it's possible, but not easily detected from your pics.
Really? Numismedia (NGC) Fair Market Value has the 1803 Small 3 (the less pricey variety) listed at $2,460 in problem-free XF-40. So even if it...
The Draped Bust half definitely exhibits signs of cleaning on both the obverse and reverse, though from your pics, there does not appear to be any...
On Father's Day in 2004, I went into a local supermarket to run a bucket of pennies through the Coinstar machine. In those days, I'd buy a couple...
>> There would be no point in certifying the VDB, the cost would exceed the value. With all due respect, I believe this is just plain wrong....
These are some seriously gorgeous Morgans, guys. You set a high standard!
Super post; great pics. Nicest Franklin and Kennedy that I can recall seeing, but I tremendously enjoyed them all. You have an excellent eye....
There's enough contact chatter on the obverse to make this an improbable 64, imo. 63.
I've been grading Morgans on and off for nearly 50 years, and that coin is, as many others have observed by now, at least a 61, probably a 62. I...
If that 13-S is a fake, I agree with whoever said it was a good one. Damn good, in fact. Here's a Barber that I'll add to the image list: [IMG]...
I'm pretty sure that Charmy, The Penny Lady (Hi, Charmy) and Cointalk member is there. She's listed on the Web site as having a booth, and Long...
Beautiful coin, Charmy!!! Sort of makes me glad that I'm focused on Seated dimes for the nonce!
Far from an expert, I assure you, but I am an avid collector of Seated dimes. Your question contains too little information to attempt to answer...
I disagree. These really low grades are more easily and accurately graded on the reverse in this series, and if you a close look, the reverse on...
I agree that one is well advised to buy the best coins possible as quickly and as soon as possible, but I probably wouldn't start with the 09-S...
I am way old school, I guess, but I think implicitly trusting anyone but yourself to grade an evaluate a coin is a mistake of huge dimensions....
Having seen the newer pics, I think you should be at least at break-even on the roll! I'm delighted for you, since I feared that you would fall...
Imo, even if they were used a lot, and most of them lost their dates, ever being very valuable is hugely unlikely, just because of the vast...
I think both points of view have merit, and the optimal approach is probably the one that combines them. In almost every collection, the majority...
