Anybody have a guess as to what percentage of white Morgans and Peace have been dipped ?
hoochie MAMA ! That's a piece of work, right there. Maybe they should have a ** double star ** designation ! :D I have a really beautifully...
That's kinda where I'm at. It actually bothers me see a painted coin. I can see how some folks love 'em, and that's cool. To each their own. But...
ANACS VG8 EAC 4 Weak reverse strike. Pretty good obverse detail.
By this definition, this seems to indicate that a coin can be 70 even if average (or less) strike. After all, that's "as minted", and they don't...
I think that's a garista - a station for a guard or sentry. Barely big enough for one guy. They've got slots in 'em to slide a musket through....
Yep. That's vital. Sure, a little bang on that 1813... but overall very pieces. Congrats ! :high5:
That's hard to say. The credit crunch has hit Europe worse than the US. I think "just wait" is very good advice. Yes, it's true... major...
Let's say someone protects the slab with a little zip loc. It's easy to replace the zip loc, hard to replace the slab. There is a driving...
All of my good coins are in slabs, in Intercept Shield boxes, and in a 2-hr fire rated water resistant safe with plenty of rechargeable dessicant...
When we get "back to the basics", it really doesn't matter what we call it. That's semantics. What counts is the coin itself. The 1844 / 81...
Welcome ! You're "one of us" !
True. Just like this isn't reality : "it will be $1,000,000 to 1 Euro " :D
I'm goin' from memory on all this, so keep me honest... Help me out here... The recent sale of "the" 1933 Saint brought $7,590,020. An odd...
True, for only one reason : I haven't seen any 19th century coins graded 70. Yes, I most certainly can say it with a straight face. And here it...
It's a lot of Crazy Benjamin$ from now ! ;)
I'm sure that's true. I won't be settled here... nor need it be. It's semantics and really doesn't affect much. As for PCGS's definition......
For me personally, they are die varieties. Coins like that are typically listed as varieties by The Big Dog Market Makers who have a heck of a...
Speaking of scams... perhaps I can interest someone in a Cheerios Sacajawea $1 ? No presidents there ! :p
Not "no" but "heck no". Yep. But nobody on this board ! ;) I've always thought it was someone who thought they were getting a rarity, and paid...
