Pics first; these are not sufficient for an informed opinion.
Looks like Gary is doing some long-term thinking here against the day he doesn't want to be running himself ragged on the show circuit any longer....
I know nothing about the issue, but it seems obvious that an Uncirculated coin would not have the chance to acquire the crud seen in the tighter...
This. I didn't run the video - I don't provide view clicks to random Youtubers - but the initial image has the coin pictured. It's a very low...
I'm thinking with the stars, it's like that metal never moves at all and the fields around them are metal which has flowed away during the strike....
I didn't realize it was all done in hardware; my information was based on "press release" type data which wasn't technically complete. That's even...
OK, this is all of the newps (although the next addition is already picked out :P ). This one's a little more Red than I prefer. Red copper is no...

I'm sensing the Sun on a somewhat-cloudy day as a light source here, which would reduce apparent luster since it's in essence a...
It appears to be a coin commemorating the opening of the Holy Door of St. Peter's Basilica in conjunction with the declaration of an Extraordinary...
