Check the link I posted in post #6. The text is linked there.
I'm only interested if NGC will slab it. Maybe a dual holder with a corresponding coin next to it?
I personally detest fingerprints on coins, and will not buy them (unless it is an incredibly rare coin and that's the only way). Because I...
Yes, you could accelerate toning on them. That isn't really damage, and it it is just bullion they will retain their value, but if it is...
Strike. Luster. Wear. Eye Appeal. Surface Preservation. If you understand these 5 basic building blocks, you will be able to grade any coin. In...
At least there is a plausible scenario as to how this was created, unlike those nails and things we had been talking about. Definitely had help...
It isn't marked as such, but this is a 2.5 Dirhams coin from Morocco. (It's also graded MS-67... by far the highest for the type) [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

By PCGS Standards, absolutely FBL (I'd need to see better pictures to determine if the top set of lines are full, and thus meet NGC and my...
Turn the sound to mute, because it is a genuinely aweful modern noise-track... but this is an original silent film from 1907 showing the minting...
All you gotta do is submit that for NGC expert review, they'll tell you that it is most likely fake!
You coin exhibits strike doubling, or machine doubling. It does not display the characteristics of an actual RPM. Take a look here and compare...
Ok, that wasn't helpful or answer my question at all. Anyone who can provide some actual useful information on these sites care to share? What...
If you've seen a picture of it, it is not sight unseen. And if you have a return privilege, it is absolutely not sight unseen. You see it, you...
That link doesn't work....
