I'm not entirely sure what you were looking at, but here's what I see:...
This is not a fingerprint, this is a part of the design. If you look at more Kennedys, you'll see the same thing on every one of them. This is a...
Ah, I see where you are coming from. The 1965 UCAM is 0.5% of the population; the 1966 UCAM is 0.95%; the 1967 UCAM is 2.9%. So yes, the date does...
1. The difference between AU and MS is based on wear. There is no wear on this coin. Contact marks are not wear. 2. Contact marks and scratches...
A little bit of context: I was calling certified DCAM specimens rare compared to the rest of the SMS coins. (looking only at NGC numbers) There...
I prefer kettle-corn, myself. Made in a big old kettle like they do at the Civil War re-enactments. Best damn popcorn you'll ever eat. As for...
To even consider slabbing it, you have to be *convinced* that the coin will either make 68, or will get a CAM. Your coin will top out at 65,...
I suspect the obverse image was angled just right to show the "toning." That is not primary toning, however. That is secondary toning after the...
Yeah, that's a woodie. Some people love them. I hate them. I think they're ugly. I avoid them, right up there with PVC and environmental damage....
Yeah, those statistics are not something that you'll find. If you really want to know the answer, Sir Francis Bacon invented the scientific...
Absolutely essential advice: if you are going to pursue something like this, get the terms clearly spelled out, written down on a document that...
I like the idea of the multi-holder for certain sets - a set of 1982 pennies, a mint set, etc. But this isn't really a multi-holder... this is a...
They are not proofs. They are SMS coins. There's a difference. And yes, they are generally high quality. However, DCAM is *exceptionally* rare...
Grading proofs from photographs is an excercise in futility. I will say, though, that there appears to be an abundance of hairlines on the...
I have considered this option for coins a couple of times, but I always choose against it. Basically, you are taking out a loan to buy the coin,...
No. They do not crack it out for designation review, and they do not crack it out for crossover unless the coin crosses.
I just saw that. I am very curious what must be considered, and why they can't start designating PL sooner than later. I have to say, the fact...
Ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer. That's the way the world rolls.
What he probably more likely heard was that modern dies are often chrome plated to prolong their life. This chrome finish gives them mirrored...
I see no mintmark. What do you think you see?
Separate names with a comma.
