My problem with them is that they never seemed to recognize the PVC situation. If that's the way you make your living, be thorough. They weren't.
It cost me $18 for NCS to tell me that they won't "conserve" my coin. PLUS Registered postage both ways. The reason stated for...
That's not the one I have. Here's mine: http://www.bobpaulrarecoins.com/product/getting-your-two-cents-worth-coin-book/
PRICES: As accurate as you can get for a printed guide. Remember they are "wholesale", not "retail". And they can only update prices for items...
Nice looking coin. No distracting marks or dings. Slight "woodie" characteristics on the reverse (some people like that, some don't). So my...
I like NGC, mostly because I'm an ANA member and don't have to join NGC to use them as graders. I don't submit enough coins to make joining...
A 2-cent collection is nice. I liked it because it is short meaning that you won't spend the rest of your life trying to complete it. (I'll...
Thanks again. As a former stamp collector I'm quite familiar with offsets. It occur much more often on stamps. And since it's so common it...
That's what I suspected BUT I don't have enough background with currency to be sure. Plus the impression seems SO good that an ink transfer was...
1a. Is this sort of error possible? 1b. If so. how? 2a. If so, does this one look real? 2b. Or is the image too small to tell?...
Lots of marks in the fields but based on my experiences with imaging coins I think cameras over accentuate that sort of thing. I suspect it...
Actually I do circle crop BUT my s/w package still keeps the image square so I end up with white corners. It's the "Fill" function that leaves...
Same grade as mine (PCGS G-6) except mine only cost $750. Of course that might be because I bought mine in the 70's ;)
I picked up three IHC's Saturday from MFD. That brings my count up to about 35, all MS-63 or better. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
NICE '93-S!!! Key to the set. PCGS holder. Genuine?
ALL RIGHT!!! Maybe my 1960's coins will become valuable yet :rolleyes: There was the big melt in 1980. (Did 1990 have a big melt during that...
If it's valuable, not many. If it's not then more than enough to supply the collecting community.
Someone over on eBay pointed this out. What's up with it? http://forums.ebay.com/db1/topic/Coins-Paper-Money/1887-Hong-Kong/520279456
It's made of copper-nickel (CuNi) and coins in that metal do not get the Red/RB/BN descriptor. You'll see the same situation with IHC's from 1859...
I don't recommend rubbing alcohol. It can damage plastic if the % is high enough. Bestine is a product often used to remove rubber cement.
