I personally prefer to flip quarters. I find dimes to be too small to get a consistent and satisfying flip. Halves and dollars are too large and...
Well that was a fascinating read. Congrats on your newest purchase!
Question for someone more familiar with the series: Is the weakness of the lettering on the ribbon (IGWT) typical for the series/date? Is the...
If you are interested in this subject, pick up a copy of Roger Burdette's "From Mine to Mint." It discusses all of the technology the mint used...
With 32 guesses, CT called this a 65.8. PCGS and CAC called it a 66. Significantly, over 62% of graders got this one right - and at most you were...
With 33 guesses, CT called this a 63.6. NGC and CAC called it a 64. I'm actually a bit surprised by the low guesses on this one. To be fair,...
Well done, everyone! With 65 guesses, CT guessed 65.4 - and PCGS CAC called it 65 also. As some of you mentioned, I think this is a strong 65....
Ooh, just realized my timeslot for the NGC grading competition is 12:10, and your talk is 12:30. Going to be tight, but I think I can make it.
Wow, that is a very well done fake!

Tell us a little bit about yourself: what is your level of experience in the hobby, and what are your goals? If there is only one book that...
I personally have bought several coins which were not designated as PL. I bought them because they were PL. I paid a PL price for them. I...
I over-reacted. I shouldn't have.
These are the worst sort of fakes, because they are good enough to fool non-collectors. The Peace is more convincing than the Morgan, but if...
Haha, nothing really makes them "official." As described in the original post, I'm running a bit of an experiment, and so the "official" guess the...
I'll post the grade reveal tomorrow, to give everyone a chance to participate. There has been low turnout for this group, because of Christmas.
I'm going to bump this up, because I think there wasn't a whole lot of activity on Christmas. Is anyone involved with a Boy Scout troop, or have...
Could you explain what the difference is (is one darker or lighter, have a different shade of grey or something like that)? And, wouldn't an...
I'm not saying this was made at the mint - I'm saying that someone may have performed a hardness test in a science class. There are some cents...
