We are always nervous about trade dollars since the Chinese have faked so many of them. One thing I can say is yours is slightly underweight,...
Melisa, welcome to CT. Unfortunately mint marks were not added to dimes for coins struck in Philadelphia until 1981 I believe. Therefor, it...
But is a FH 24d rarer that a FH16? This happens a lot, people think keys should always be the highest priced, when in certain grades they are much...
Well put. I have no problem if someone is sophisticated enough to know why he likes this piece to pay whatever he feels like, just like buying an...
And to think, I throw out about 15 of these every year. :( Never get to throw out any CNG literature, though, since maybe I don't spend enough...
Generically, for ALL price guides, any coin listed at less than $20 is a cheap coin, and price guides will list too high a price. Coins over $1000...
Only in Canada man, only in Canada. :)
Well I just bought a copy stand to mount my camera on, so that should help with my coin photography. I have bought around 150 coins so far this...
She just bought them a year ago, and kept $90k worth of coins in the dresser drawer? Reminds me of a quote from Ron White, "You can't fix...
Lol I agree with Chris. It does not bother me in the least they handle their medals. They just spent most of their lives trying to be the best in...

Yeah, like everyone has said OP it cannot be 1933, in fact it could not be past 1930 since that was the last year of the SL quarter. If they...
I won't post a grade, but I will say its a very pretty SLQ. I very much see why this one would capture your attention. :)
OP, you always will do well in this hobby being a cynic. I hate to say this, but this will save you a lot of money. Always assume the worst in...
OP, I think we are trying to say that you must be mistaken since no Morgans were made in 1866. Either your coin must be 1886 or 1896. It would be...
Since all of them have areas where it appears zinc is showing, I would say its corrosion of the zinc under the copper plating. I have seen similar...
I think that coin was hard to grade as much related to the toning as strike. I always found those dark CBH's to be harder to grade unless in hand...
I heartily agree that all Mods, and Peter for that matter, should always be free to post their own opinions here. Just because someone is a Mod...
Nice man, for that price you can buy 1000 of these. :) Good eye.
Oh, I didn't realize he bought that coin from Antiqua, I thought he bought it in Germany direct. Isn't that the coin they believe was reengraved...
