I'm not a chemist, but as far as I know there is nothing that will prevent copper and silver from tarnishing over time, even in proper storage....
I'd say MS 63. Great looking coin! Guy~
Prices are too high to invest right now. They'll drop, then buy. Typically after Christmas the bullion prices on gold and silver drop. Guy~
You can't melt silver or gold coins as well, but we're forever talking about their "melt values". Guy~
I'd go with Morgans. They can be picked up cheaply enough. And, on top of future melt value, you also have the historical aspect of the coin,...
I don't know. I'm in CA and I'm lucky if I see a P mintmark on any coin in one out of 100 coins I get in change...and even thats an optomistic...

I guess I grade based on a buyer. Seeing as grade, whether by an average collector or a professional grader, is subject to opinion, as we've said...
It's a copy, and I guess for $4.01 you did ok. But, I'd go visit a coin shop. Most that I've been to, you can buy nice Morgans, though worn, at...

You can try using a camera phone if you have one. When I can't get a decent pic with my regular digital camera, I use my phone's camera and they...
I agree the fees are rediculously high. And, many of today's high priced coins are being sold privately, although through an agent most of the...
I'm there for a month or so every year, but unfortunately, I don't live anywhere close. Guy~
It's a 1998. I don't think it's worth anything but it's face value, but it it a neat coin that I hadn't seen before. Plus, I saved it from a life...
Sorry, that was a restricted photo site. I put a new link up that I hope works better. Guy~
My wife found this http://static1.bareka.com/photos/medium/5598016/aussiecoin.jpg at a local gas station the other day. The lady was about to...
Coin shops. Guy~
