I have not seen this one before. It is signed “Morgan” so I presume that George Moran designed it. I have another Harding mint medal that is not...
It's out of focus just enough to hide some of the problems for those who don't really know what to spot. This is one of the ways that crooks...
Both are brown. When I was a dealer, I saw some better date coins, like a Mint State sharpness 1869 cent that had been dipped bright red. PCGS...
It's hard to say without pictures.
A million sounds a little high. Here are the mintages for the 1804, 1805 and 1806 half cents with the number of die varieties. 1804 1,055,312,...
It’s been my experience that they sell for less than a dollar.

I really don't know. It's now worth less than half of what I paid for it. Of course grade-flation is another factor. If you are talking about a...
No one can really comment about this without pictures. The Grey Sheet spread is $2,100 in Fine 12 and $3,150 in VF-20. Add a reasonable profit...
I have always like the 1807 and '08 Bust Half Dollars. They were John Reich's first take on the design. The eagle is looks a bit ungamely however.
You and I are on exactly the same page about the 1913 Liberty Nickel. If I had one, I would sell it and buy many more real coins that are much...
Most love tokens are made on dimes. A love token on anything else, all things being equal, is worth more. The quality of the engraving is also...
To my knowledge, the only dateless Standing Liberty Quarters that can be dated are the key date 1916 and the 1917 Type 1. There were subtle...

This one of the best Proof Walking Liberty Half Dollars that I have seen. It is in an NGC PR-67 holder. The coin has never been dipped, and it's...
