The price is at least $600 too high.
What is this for, that World War II counterstamp gold thing? Or is is something else? I think of some better numismatic ways to spend $2,600.
Mint State Walkers may be beyond @GUNNER63736's budget, but AUs are not. There used to be a fair number of them around, but I have not been in...
The first thing that caught my eye was the overall dullish luster. From there, the hairliness are really all over the surface.
The surfaces on the 1943 don't have the right kind of luster. The guys who whizzed coins did it so that they could try to palm off EF and AU coins...
Type collectors generally view the 1794 – 7 half cents Liberty Cap, facing Right as one type coin and the 1793 – 6 Liberty Cap Large Cents as one...
Here is a little advice, and I hope you can accept the spirit of it. The 1963 Franklin Half Dollar is a nice coin with original surfaces and is...
Anything you put on top of those sets that can squish them down is not good. I don't know how else to say it.
People do stuff like put rubber bands around these sets a squish them together. The coins are Proofs and they do have sharp edges on their rims...
Unless the set has a two sided cameo in it or really high grade Accented Hair Half Dollar, it's not smart to cut them up. I have found that these...
This is the way most all of them are.
Yes, you really should hit the "full size" button and put the photos in the body of your message. That makes it easier. As for the coin, it might...
There is nowhere to go with this. The collectors who are willing pay $100 + for a coin wouldn’t want it. The “bottom feeders” won’t pay anything...
It would interesting to x-ray it to see if the coin had a big irregular hole in it. Could the blob of metal be a crude repair?
According to the Grey Sheet, you got a deal. The bid is $210 in EF-40. Of course, despite what they say, those prices have NGC or PCGS grading...
@halfcent1793, Roger Cohen didn’t like that 1793 Half Cent when I showed it to him in the 1990s. That coin was an upgrade from the black and...
There is truth to this statement, but you need to know the consequenses. When you buy a problem coin, the potential buyer's response is always...
I knew Roger Cohen personally. We once did an EAC half cent exhibit together. His book is easy to use and unpretentious. The main drawback is that...
Crappy pictures send a very clear message: STAY AWAY! Don’t even consider bidding. Sellers post crap photos for a reason, and it’s not for your...
There is so little left of this piece, it makes one wonder if it is genuine. If you don’t get this thing into a “genuine” holder, a lot of the...
