Yes, it's an AU. Getting an example of this date and mint mark combition in a Mint State holder is like walking on water. AUs are common; Mint...
I am afraid that I am not nearly as focused as you are. I collected Indian cents and type coins when I was in high school in the 1960s. My...
The sharpness is in the AU range, but the spots and possible cleaning take it down to EF-40 from the pricing perspective. There is only die Cohen...
Only the reverse is “a toner.” The obverse is white.
No, only ONE William II. The first one helped finance the second one.
The William II, or "Rufus" penny is a lot tougher than the William I coin. Getting a William I coin mostly takes money. You have to wait in line...
Here I am again ... "locked down" (Not officially, but actual none the less) in Florida. It's going on five months now, and there is no end in...
There are lags in the system. The best thing to do is to log-in here and check the "Alerts" box in the upper right corner. I don't want the...

There are a fair number of collectors who don't like Morgan Dallars because so many of them are common in Mint State, and they have been heavily...
If you have it graded, you are going to get an MS-62 or a 63. Using Grey Sheet prices, an MS-62 is worth $197. An MS-63 is worth $198. There is...
If you are buying key dates, you have to know how to spot the fakes, and you had better be good at it. With the Chinese getting better at their...
I have collected U.S., British and ancient Roman coins. I also have collected tokens, medals and some paper money. My feelings on certification...
Sorry, but the OP coin will be a bear to sell when the time comes. The trouble is, it has little eye appeal. The reverse is blah. The toning has...
The old ANACS did a fairly decent job with its grades, but it never got much respect from the a lot of the dealer community. At times it under...
The roughed-up cheek makes it an MS-62 at best. It’s not worth sending it in. A lot of the S-mint dollars from 1878 to 1881 have P-L or near P-L...
AU-58, probably in an MS-62 holder.
I gave it an 8. The Nickel Three Cent Piece is one of my least favorite series, but this coin is attractive with its unusual colorful toning. You...
Yes, the TPGs should have pictures posted of ALL of the coins that they have certified that are worth some amount, say $500 or more. Furthermore...
