I don't collect them myself, but I know plenty of people buy them. In hand, they look exactly like you'd expect - like a round, blank piece of...
I don't not expect anything, because the term is meaningless. Someone who's used to seeing slick Wheaties will use "high grade!!!!" to describe...
I don't see it in your pictures, but DDOs are really hard to photograph well.
Its all marketing hype. "High Grade" is right up there with "LQQK!!!!" and "PQ+++!!!!" It means nothing.
Very nice. I am going to call it 66 based on the small luster graze on his cheek and the mark on the neck, but that is darn close to 67. Split the...
Wow. You either need to recalibrate your monitor, or re-read the grading guides. You are *significantly* off (by 30 or more points) on at least 2...
I don't see a doubled die from your pictures. What I do see (at least, it looks like it in these pictures) is a trace of wear on the high...
Alright, good answers everyone! These are all raw, so there really isn't a right or wrong answer - but I'm glad to see everyone is in the right...
All I see is a late die state.
Whew, that token is definitely not PG!
Usually when I see that, I assume it is a problem piece. You have dealers trying to unload it, or it isn't meeting its reserve. Nice site, by...
The real answer, jp, is that most coin people aren't business people. It is a law of behavioral economics that people are highly reticent to take...
If he is trying to put it into a PCGS registry, its presence in teh NGC registry would have absolutely zero impact on it. The two are completely...
And a 53S in 66FBL is a $60k coin.
Be more specific with your question. Do I like proofs in general more than business strikes? No. Do I like those particular proofs vs. business...
That one is far more attractive than the other RB you posted above. I really like the obverse of this one. However, the reverse is quite dark. You...
I really don't find the "chinless" look attractive. That's just me.
Yes, they both look original. However, I vastly prefer the look of the BN example. The RB, while technically a "higher" designation, has a lot of...
We cannot possibly offer an accurate grade from closeups of the center of the coin. You should know better than that.
It has EF details, but it appears to have been cleaned or polished in some way. The obverse especially looks weird. I'd say the value is more...
