YES!!! The SL Quarter is better than its pictures. Here's what it looked like on eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/351412170804 I haven't taken my...
Seems a bit high. $5500 would be about right based on my sources (catalogs). Do an "auction results" search; that would be the closest to the...
Thank the heavens that many sellers can't take a decent photo. I bought an 1874-S SL Half Dollar that I wasn't thrilled with the pictures on eBay....
I suspect the gap in the face is the result of die polishing.
Oddly enough, the third coin (1858 SL) is graded the highest of the three.
I started an IHC set several years back. Not surprisingly I decided to include the three reasonably collectible FE's. Here they are: 1857 [IMG]...
I know that a popular publication is: The Comprehensive Catalogue and Encyclopedia of U.S. Morgan and Peace Dollars by Van Allen & Mallis I've got...
I sell. I need the dough to get something I want. This just jogged my memory. I've got one to sell. Maybe I'll see what I can do first at the...
Yeh. Don't forget they are CuNi and the Mint was probably still having trouble with that alloy. And maybe the fact that they were the first small...
Somehow, somewhere my full set of Liberty V nickels in a Capital Plastics holder disappeared. The two early keys were AG at best and the rest Good...
It does when the order consists of only one coin. IF it comes back VF-something then I would have paid about half of its catalog value to get it...
You omitted the VarietyPlus option cost ($15). The coin is an 1809 Half Cent, "o in 0" variety. I'm looking for it to grade VF-something.
Thanks for the quick response. Dave
I want to submit ONE coin to NGC. I estimate it's catalog value at $150. That's the Economy tier. BUT The Economy tier requires a minimum...
Maybe it's time for this question. Does Snow's guide include ALL known dies? I suspect not otherwise there would be a LOT more entries. From the...
That spot at 11 on the obverse would annoy the graders. IMO the only thing that would make it worth sending to a TPG is if it had Full Bell Lines...
That's pretty much it. The "edge" is also known as the "third side" of a coin and, yes, that's where the reeding is. The "rim" is the raised part...
Actually I would consider an "edge bump" to be less of a problem than a "rim nick" if the relative sizes are about equal. I view an "edge bump" as...
Just a matter of semantics but I'd call it an "edge bump" rather than a "rim nick".
I remember seeing this sort of thing last year at one of the Whitman shows. The dealer selling them said they were flying off his table. Eye...
