Sorry about your grandmother. I don't think leaving them with the lawyer is a good idea. You probably should send them to be slabbed and...
Another great piece! Please keep sharing them.
Good idea. Very creative.
This would be my vote too. Women love gold and it doesn't matter how old they are. :thumb: The coin is small so it should be in an airtite or...
The truth can frequently be known only in hindsight, which is too late in many cases. In my case, I don't personally know the players or their...
Mmmmm. I posted here but it didn't show up. So here goes another try. VF-Cleaned.

I agree that an uncleaned coin is more valuable than a cleaned coin. I agree that a cleaned MS coin has been permanently harmed and can't be...
I completely disagree. Coins have intrinsic value. Of course there is the bullion value, and if you do a little research you can also...
Some people feel safer than justified -- until they learn the hard way. Everyone should try to protect their privacy more than they probably do.
Nobody outside of my immediate family knows I collect coins or has ever seen them. The valuable coins are in a safe deposit box, and I have to go...
I completely agree. I've always thought that cleaning was essentially the same as wear. So while a cleaned MS coin might not be MS anymore,...
Nice coin. I always liked the $10 liberty. A few years ago I almost started collecting them but a local coin dealer talked me out if it....
Since you are collecting presidential dollars and may have already damaged them, you might want to consider starting over, otherwise you may find...
bbfan, hard times tokens are very collectible. You should ask your mom where she thinks she got it from and report back to us.
I can see the flashing red danger lights all around this thread.
