All you have to do is Google "[insert denomination here] clash overlay." Chances are someone will already have created one for you to evaluate. :)
No, but it's a solid investment strategy, I think. :)
In my case, the correct answer to the question is always a temporary one. :P Currently, it's 25.4mm, in the form of the Canada Large Cent.
When you research it more thoroughly, you'll find that a large percentage of the cheap electronic scales offered (and branded) by innumerable...
VAMs are another thing entirely, being quite literally a moving target on a day-to-day basis. The only good assumption associated with VAM prices...
The only advantage the US Mint would have over foreign Mints is long experience in minting huge quantities of a given issue. Even with attention...
I've often wondered how 1827 came to have so_many_varieties when other years of similar mintage did not. Given the total mintage of some Bust...
Those reviews are random comments on other coins, in this case the only qualifying factor being it's a Morgan Dollar. That might be relevant for...
1. The lettering is mirror-imaged. This could only happen if another "positive," another coin, was used to impress it. A second strike by a die...
Could be that the die chipped away in that area, and the precise evidence has been worn down by circulation. A feature that small on a die...

That's a pretty darn nice 62. IPhones are the bomb for shooting coins. His images are nice, but they do not touch what the phone is capable of.
The only appropriate response is, "It's necessary to see the coin first." The more vicious the cleaning, the more obvious it is that this is a...
Nothing. It's how you're supposed to grade. That, though, is a standard the TPG's don't adhere to.
I think the coin depicted in those images is possibly real; it only remains whether the seller actually owns it. Terrible White Balance in the...
There is a cognitive dissonance here you're completely missing. Only the long-time collectors - the experts - care about precise terminology? Why,...
A single St Gaudens would darn near double the value of my collection. Mandatory? Um, no.
B2 Reverse; the overwhelming majority of 1878-S strikes use it. On the 1902, have a look under the top serif of the 1 for a little "curl," and...
Unfortunately, you don't get to know if it "looks like it's been cleaned" until afterward, which is a bit too late....
Separate names with a comma.
