If you went to sell that as a 62 it would get cherrypicked pretty quickly. I believe that is an undergrade ignoring the color.
Yes, I bet many men here feel the same, daydreaming their wife was into coins and such like our favorite here @TIF . :)
I know what you mean. I have had dealers try that to me. One took a coin I found in his "pick bucket" and casually slid it into his pocket when I...
Yeah, but is that why you buy a red book? While I never understood once a year purchases, its nice to have an "all in one" book of US coins. Of...
Plus the whole undervaluing rarities and overvaluing very common coins endemic in all catalog prices. I have written about this and why...
Heck, I find questions I have from old posts on CT all of the time. The embarrassing ones are the ones where I answered them 8 years ago but...
Depends on what he is into. Someone into early US history you can get one or two nice Continental Currency's. I like the group idea. One each...
Makes me sad seeing these coins. Sad because I wasn't smart enough to buy the folders in the 1980s with rolls of these one sided toners in them. I...
He is a troll, and in the grand internet scheme of things, not an especially memorable one. Respond to something posted if it makes your point or...

Like @Randy Abercrombie said, you always need to look at what spot was when published. Same as going back to 1992 and looking at a 1942 circulated...
I would agree with that, if submitted today it would probably be 64. By rights its a 63 today, and I also would not be surprised if @toned_morgan...
Spot is industrial/jewelry users and market participants. The US mint would be a participant, not someone buying a monster box, let alone a few...
I agree. Premiums are a function of how much people want it. Is silver started an ever upward trend like 2011, premiums would continue until near...
Any dealer attributing this to Cleo VII simply does not know ancient coins. Her Ptolemaic types are extremely well documented, as are most of hers.
I see nothing wrong with your coin OP. I have a soft spot for these, my first ancient coin was a pretty VF with emerald patina.
Its supposed to be a lion, right? Viewed from top of the head, so the mane is visible both on top and the sides.
FYI, I searched a few hundred images of the Bactrian nickel issues last night Doug. I didn't see any hint of one with spots. Bummer, it would have...
