Just look at completed eBay sales and compare prices realized for coins similar to yours both slabbed and raw. If raw price + slabbing cost ≤...
I don't collect lowballs but if I did, yours would be on the top of my list. Just think what stories that coin could tell☺
To top it all off I hit the "bid" button on a Heritage auction last week for this Thaler from Saxony. I just couldn't resist![ATTACH] [ATTACH]
After receiving these two coins I started looking for something a bit more unconventional and found a whole series of GDR commemoratives up for...
Although my collection consists mostly of US coins, I am very ADHD in my collecting habits so sometimes I go off on tangents. Germany is one of...
I would call it AU55.
I've typically gravitated toward earlier type coins and even a few colonials, as absolute survivability is low and I don't see demand ever going...
I've only bought from eBay and Heritage. At my price range (250 and below) it has been a toss up who has better deals, but I would probably lean...
I think we should be nice to newbies regardless of how ridiculous their questions sound. However, I don't understand how people can be so...
Stained would be a major detraction in eye appeal which would hit the value hard, perhaps even more than cleaning. At least a cleaned coin can...

I have a 64 Kennedy that I'm keeping as a pocket piece. It started as a high AU/low MS, and after several months of contact with other coins and...
Personally I don't buy problem coins even though I don't have a big budget. However, if I was going to buy one I would prefer improper cleaning...
I don't think it looks nicer at all than the graded note. On the contrary, I like the graded one better. The reverse stains just kill the first...
It depends on how low of a problem free grade we're talking about. I draw the line at a G4. I would always prefer a problem free good or better...
Since all of my buying is done on line, I buy nothing but slabbed. I don't trust photos well enough as I've gotten unpleasant surprises even with...
AU, probably higher than 50.
If I were the buyer negotiating a BIN listing I would prefer first class versus priority if it got me a better deal on the coin. I'd probably...
I doubt any Eliasberg coin in my price range would have been a highlight of his collection :-)
When I opened the thread and looked at the pictures I didn't see what was ugly about it... You can't beat a nice circulated classic coin. Also...
