There are some dealers who always have high prices, and you know that they are a waste of time. As a retired dealer I respect respect that fact...
This piece is raw with no certification. The next auction is the same way with no certified pieces. Some items would get "no grades" or "details"...
The vast majority of Civil War tokens were struck and issued in 1863. That one appears to be of that vintage. The 1861 pieces are few and far...
I was looking this item which appeared in Davisson's action, which closed yesterday. It is a AR hardi d'argent of Edward the Black Prince who was...
Genuine, but cleaned and not gently. The 1895-S is not rare in the circulated grades. This sort of a filler.
The one in your type set is an MS-64 at best. It's got spots and marks. You should be able to get a really pretty one, but color could be a...
I am not a Canadian specialist, but I'm not a fan of the color. I think that it may have been enhanced. The sharpness grade is there, but the...
I get tired of dealers who judge "the book by its cover." I learned early on that you can't judge anybody that way. At one show, when I was...
I have some rolls of Wheat Cents my grandmother hoarded in the 1960s. I have them mostly to remember her. I have a few rolls of circulated, full...
BU rolls hold about as much interest for me as kitty litter. If I had any, I'd sell them and use the funds to buy something interesting.
Gold is cheap? o_O Let’s hope not. If it is, the money you have be worth nothing, and the overall economy will be busted. Be careful what you wish...
Thanks for getting back to me @expat. I have gotten the same answer elsewhere. The ovals were issued in 1797 (and maybe later until 1804?) and the...
If that coin in that holder makes you happy, that's great, but it's not great if a less experienced collector paid Red Mint State money for it. I...
The worst piece in my collection by are long shot ... [ATTACH] [ATTACH] This token was made from iron recovered from the wreck of the CSS...
I would like to purchases a couple more aureus coins, but that is a major investment. I have one of Antonius Pius, but his gold pieces are the...
These coins were issued by the Bank of England on an emergency basis during the Napoleonic Wars. The series started with the small counter mark in...
The prices are often $4,000 and up for the more common varieties. I found a nice PCGS graded AU-58 for less than $4,000. Watch out for certified...
The cent and nickel, as we know them, might be ending sooner than you think. With inflation what it is and the static face value of the cent and...
My avatar and the coin that got me really hooked on the Draped Bust design coinage. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I agree that the coin was cleaned at one time. Matte Proofs can be dull or have dull luster, but this one especially on the reverse seems to be...
