Nice score. This coin is on my wish list, maybe someday.
The results are in! 9 of the 16 coins are designated "This coin was selected for conservation services." I can't wait to see if I can tell the...
I think most people factor in the 20% when bidding, which sucks for the sellers. At least I do. I'll eat the shipping cost though. Nice pickup.

Thanks for the link to the article.
Since I personally bought this around 1973, I guess it might qualify as an "old holder", although nothing TPG about it of course. I imagine these...
They updated the "lacquer coin" with the 50c denomination this morning. They had updated all the denominations on Friday except for this one - it...
All I have in my trove of images is this old pic of a 1923 Canadian 5c. In 1923 my grandparents were 17 and experiencing the Roaring Twenties in...
That one is pretty funny too, with the attempt at Nixon's face and the 1974 date.

This is very sad news. I had also messaged with him at NGC on a few occasions (but never met him). The amount of knowledge he possessed was...
It's good to know the sort of games Heritage plays with these, not that they'd be doing the same on anything I'd be bidding on. I think the seller...
My last purchase of 2022 was about $500 worth of grading service and I'll still end up with the same coins, so you did well.
I looked at them for a long time and decided not to respond because I couldn't tell the difference. I finally decided that they were in order, but...
It's great that there's a "local" on here out of the wide wide world of coin collecting! Were you there as a dealer or customer? I could probably...
I'm pretty sure it's a 1961-D, struck in Dahlonega for the 100th anniversary of the mint closing.
After no progress since my last post, I received a message from Paul today, with a question about one of my coins. I logged in and noted that all...
It's in the mail. Sorry, no tracking number.
I would like coin A if I win. It would be my oldest coin by at least 1,654 years, and cool to have something Roman. Here is our invisible cat,...
Listing ended by seller. I sent them a short note.
