I understand that ;) I'm trying to build a really world-class set of Moroccan coinage. Whenever possible, I'm trying to get the absolute highest...
That green is worrisome. What is it struck through?
Good guesses, everyone! This coin is actually graded MS-68 by NGC. If you look closely, there are almost no marks anywhere on the coin. The...
How so? NGC always seems to sell for more than PCGS, from what I've seen.
Just curious, could you explain what you see that would put it at 64?
For a bit of fun comparison, here is another one I own, graded NGC MS-66. Do you like the original one better, or is it lower graded? [ATTACH]...
Minor doubling on world coins is essentially worthless - there are virtually no collectors interested in them. It is interesting, and definitely...
I really like the obverse design on this coin. And those are fantastic examples!
Man, that Corinthian is gorgeous. I've always been a fan of that design, although I haven't picked one up yet (I've been outbid on a couple,...
I think the pictures are a little dark, especially the second one. Try having her change the lights to increase the contrast - on those high...
Well, I don't have any from Kaiser Bill, but I've got his grandpappy Willy. I've also, coincidentally, got his Grandma Victoria: [ATTACH]...
I can just imagine giving that marriage anniversary one to your wife. "Hey, honey, this year, I had a coin struck for you." Fastest way to get...
It is not the most attractive toning, but it looks like toning. PVC can sometimes have a yellowish appearance, depending on the thickness and...
By the loose American standards, EF details polished.
I definitely wouldn't say I collect Mexican coins. I would say, however, when I see a nice Prooflike at a great price, I'll pick it up. For...
What is considered "modern" in French coinage? I know that their coinage goes back many hundreds of years, but are coins from the 1930's "modern"?
Can you give us some examples (with pictures!) of iron and zinc coins? I know about Belgium, US (1943 cents), and I know that Sweden made some...
Saw this beauty. Had to have it. Guess the Grade! [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
It certainly has prooflike characteristics. My first reaction is that the obverse probably makes it, but the reverse is borderline. These can be...
That is correct - 48's were the very first year, so the master was still quite strong. FBL's are quite common this year. The OP's coin is well...
