Just a question. Could this be the result of long term storage with a dime next to it causing some type of chemical reaction and/or physical...
This is another S-30 from my early Photo collection. [IMG] [IMG]
It looks like the offers aren't acceptable at this point, but I was hoping to get a 1799 since that's my EAC membership Number. It only seems right.
I picked up the slabs from Beaumont today and these are the new NGS numbers: 1843-C LARGE DATE $2.50 XF DETAILS IMPROPERLY CLEANED...
I blame the photography. I think you'd see the attribution points if you had it in hand. ps It appears that 90% of these are XF to AU from the...
In terms of rarity, the 54 (estimates of 80-90 survivors) is rarer than the 1799 or 1804 Large Cents . I appreciate it enough to not GIVE it away,...
It's the S-30 in my opinion. The strong double curl only shows up on Obverse 11 and 12. The leaf under the left foot of A in STATES is a giveaway...
If I had only one criticism of the mint, it's when they chose to issue an entire stock of a coin through a single 3rd party source. Any product...
I'm glad too, but your suggestion about authentication is still sound advice. I'll feel better about the coin whether I keep it or sell it now....
Thanks. Now to see how much the cleaning and damage affect their value. All Charlottes are relatively rare, but the 1854 would be about R5- for...
I like the die crack coming out of the wreath on the reverse of the 46.
If we made old Gold coinage in copper and silver, the denominations wouldn't be far off base value. The change the fractional coinage to aluminum....
There is a reasonable amount one should expect between a dealers buy and that dealers sell. It's necessary to stay in business and pay the bills....
When the Golden Rule is no longer Golden, then no one should be trusted. ~Isn't a Godless America wonderful?~ ps ~sarcasm~ without paying for...
These were sent to NGC and have just been returned to the dealer who assisted me with the submission. The 1843-C Large Date was detail graded for...
I don't know about this situation, but Scientists and experts tend to be snobs and skeptics about any find by anyone not in the elite group.
There does seem to be a difference of opinions about whether to call "Minor" errors error coins. The difference is value. I suppose those that...
Insanity has many forms. This one isn't too bad.
You did very well. Surfaces are a little rough, but not bad. I'd probably go with G5, but I'm a hard grader for other peoples coins. I'm much...
I'd consider taking that off your hands. I love CUDS.
