I don't know exactly where you are going with the question, but if you crack the fake out of a counterfeit slab, you have a fake that is no longer...
So they are now showing pictures of their "mint." Yes, it is funny in a horrid sort of way.
If they ban them, they just come back with a different name.
Wyoming is right "down here too." When I saw that outline of the cowboy on the bucking bronco, I thought that the coin was defective.
I was born and raised in Delaware. There are not a lot of numismatic things you can collect from Delaware. There are no Hard Times or Civil War...
Grant’s life was marked by huge successes and huge failures. He never seemed to be able to settle into what you might call “happy mediocrity.”...
EAC grading can come in two forms. The good form provides a valuable description of the coin. It takes into account the problems that one...
Generally not that good. The bright spot in the center indicates a cleaning attempt. The ideal color for a cent is light tan to milk chocolate....
Ulysses S. Grant was president for two terms, from 1869 to 1877. After leaving office, Grant and his wife, Julia, traveled to Europe where they...
From the close-up shots of the OP coin, I’d say that it is massively over graded. If all you have to use for an on-line auction is photos, “glamor...
Auction houses should ban or give a lengthy suspension to those who dishonor their bids. It is totally unfair to those who honor their commitments...

My guess is over 300, but a lot of them are damaged. I have seen quite a few that were bent, and several that were holed. A coin dealer I knew in...
VF-20.
I would go in the Heritage site and see what they have gotten for the item. You can also go to PCGS "Coin Facts" which has the PCGS value, which...
This is coin, not a token, but it has now become quite expensive. I sold a few of these for well under $200 when I was a dealer. Now they can...

The 1860 Indian cent is made with a copper-nickel alloy that is different from the later pieces which were made on bronze planchets. When that...
It's crazy that the Chinese would make a counterfeit of this coin. Although the 1949 is a better date, it's no big deal in circulated condition....
Which two coins are you lacking? I am guessing that it is the 1796-7 half dollar and maybe a Chain Cent. If you only go up to 1964, I have...
