I've seen something similar when coins have been exposed to rubber bands.
I surprised it even got listed. My listing experiences indicate that if you put NGC or PCGS in the title you have to include the particulars,...
As the expression goes: "The universe is not only stranger than we imagine, it is stranger than we CAN imagine."
And don't forget, the Perseid meteor shower peaks the night of Aug 12-13. Predictions are for a better than average showing AND that shower is...

The person I am recommending to my wife is MFD (My Favorite Dealer). He put together my FE/IHC set. Those of you who see my occasional posts know...
Thanks. I'll hold onto this post 'til I get my ducks in order. At the moment I'm working my way through Numismedia. I've done my ½¢, 1¢, 2¢, 3¢...
I want something consistent. My idea is to get the info from one source, probably Numismedia (definitely NOT the Red Book). I was just wondering...

My cost to Hugh Wood is more like $1400/yr. That will give you an clue to the collection's extent. I'm looking for a ballpark figure for...

Separate names with a comma.
