Yes, I concur. Using a product which I don't know how to use and don't really want to use doesn't make much sense, especially since the dip...
Sheesh, both PCGS and NGC require that one become a member. NGC is cheaper, at $25. So if I'm adding up correctly, 25 + 25 (conservation) + 40...
I watched various videos about how to dip: [MEDIA] So, is it being dried with a tissue? How long should it be air-dried before being flipped?...
Don't forget the raised stuff on the rim, like tar or something had been spilled. It's raised, like a buildup. I just looked at the coin under...
It's the same coin. My coin photography isn't the best. The coin was just better situated under the light this time. Those are way better than my...
You can see something going on in teh beading of the star to the right of the 5 in the original pic. Between a lost coin and this it makes me...

What was the most valuable item available in the distro?
It is indeed a neat type. Well done!
I'm glad the second reveal is a purple core. Let's hope it's one of the better ones. This time I came close to taking the plunge. It wasn't...
Those are very nice! Indeed, who doesn't like gold? I'd much rather have it than platinum. I'm too tired to dig up better examples but even...

Neat! I enjoy the Ancient coin podcast, and I wasn't aware of the other one; I'll have to check that out. The fishy three bust early 4th century...
