Me too because of the toning. Being "old school" I much prefer a silver coin with even gray toning. But at the time I was looking to fill holes...
The start of the silver portion of my type set. 1852 Variety 1 Silver 3¢ (Trime) - PCGS MS-61 [IMG] [IMG] 1858 Variety 2 Silver 3¢ (Trime) -...
And IMO it's no longer a RD color (assuming that the label and that coin are one in the same).
Based on my experiences with a different issue, R-1, -2 and -3 coins will all go about the same price. And that price will be catalog value IF...
Okay, 1941-D. The mints weren't striking them very well that year. I agree with AU-53 but with enough wiggle room to go -50 or -55.
Looking at the coins in this category there's nothing special. Nickel 5¢ coins are not that old and not that spectacular. But to stick with the...
ICG along with SEGS and PCI are reasonable TPG's. But generally it is suggested NOT to buy sight unseen. But then that's also said of PCGS, NGC...
I'm not used to grading coins from that time period. I'm stuck between AG-03 and G-04.
Back in 1955 when I started collecting I had a paper route. A weekly subscription was something in the area of 25¢. I know I picked up two dated...
They'll start the run of silver coins. I want to finish up the non-precious metals first. That means the nickel 5¢ coins. On thing I've found out...
Some of the images aren't as good as they could be. They were taken before I upgraded my equipment and skills. And I don't include any cents...
The term "slider" was originally applied to an uncirculated coin that was stored in a coin tray but because of motion of the tray the coin became...
Hopefully the £20 notes are still good.
Thanks bunches for the variety ID's.
I can't tell. Your pics aren't very good.
If it's a scratch on the die then it would be raised. So I'm down to die scratch or internal die break (which would be unusual).
Nice one. Not something I look for but if it dropped into my hands it would DEFINITELY be a keeper.
Yes, I do. But they are part of my Classic Head set, not my type set.
I'd call it a Variety 2 (Pedestal Date 1917-1924) because there is a reasonable amount of design visible but no date. Not a recessed date which...
I'm not sure it was cleaned. I'm leaning towards VERY poorly handled/stored. Either way I think it's a DETAILS coin.
