After a long hiatus, a new coin is added. One of the harder spots, the Draped Bust Cent, has been filled! It's nowhere close to perfect, but there...
Whoever was selling the group likely thought "Genuine" would be an easier sell than "Details-Cleaned" or "Details-Environmental Damage."
The example above is in an NCS slab. At one point NGC used NCS slabs for problem coins. I can't tell from the picture, but I would guess that...
It certainly appears to be a topic that doesn't have much information in English. With Kazakhstan being under Soviet control for many years, I...
You're welcome! I just decided to look up the cert number that was one number before yours and got lucky in finding your coin.
Perhaps whoever sold the coin, had the labels corrected but NGC has not updated their images on the cert verification page.
That is certainly unusual! It appears that NGC made a mistake when they were holdering the coins. If you look up the number right before your...
Thank you for the lead! I'm now reading through that document. You're correct that there does not seem to be any reference to gold. If anything,...
I haven't been able to find the exact answer to that. Gold does have significance to many cultures. However, I can't find any reference to a known...
First of all, that is a great looking PL Quarter! And your coin is equally nice @jtlee321 ! My question is, why petition PCGS to add the PL/DMPL...
I know this was in jest and there are way too many fakes coming from Russia. However, there are plenty of good sellers there too. I've bought a...
And the big reveal.... It’s a Silver Kokbori. According to a press release: “Kokbori ("Heavenly Wolf") was one of the main totem animals in the...
Technically yes, only PCGS and NGC. Why do you say that one would be bagged? It looks ok to me.
I would argue that it expires if someone has tampered with the slab (like when edynamicmarketing gasses coins in slabs). However, without a photo...
Both would be quite hilarious...maybe a Sacha Baron Cohen special PCGS Label? :p
I like this one and might add it at some future point.
That’s a nice coin, but not the same as mine.
Have you seen the display from one of the exhibitors about domed coins? I believe it’s been at several big coin shows. There are some...
Getting warmer! It is minted in Kazakhstan.
Floor is open...
