Hey @RonSanderson : pro-tip: the 5756.63 serial number means that it was graded 63. Now, modern days I'd says its probably a 63+ or 64.... but...
I don't know anything about copper varieties. But I do know that is an absolutely fantastic coin - beautiful color, great surfaces, and...
Why do you like them so much? Not trolling - explain what you find attractive, desirable, and collectible about them? I'm always curious to hear...
@talerman , I'm fully aware that values varied throughout ages and such. However, your excellent post gave me at least an idea of what these...
I don't own very many gold coins. But most of the ones I do... are prooflike.

Rick Snow was one of the most recent proponents of the 100 point scale, and I wouldn't exactly call him a neophyte! The 100 point scale just...
Oh, were we supposed to post DMPLs? Sorry, my bad. Here you go. Again, the only one designated for the entire series: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I've devoted the last ten years of my collecting life to pursuing PL coins. Right now, I have 119. Yeah, that half cent is slightly rare (it's...

I know what you are saying, but these don't look like the type of parallel lines from cleaning - those are usually very parallel, long, and travel...
That is a great article. Thanks!
Nothing, really. The hoard consisted mostly of generic, common, circulated coins. The uncirculated coins were mostly common date Morgans. The...
I really prefer to avoid the term "black beauty" because that's a marketing term that scammers have invented to convince people to buy their...
