It would have to be a modern coin since VERY few coins older than 20 years reach MS-69, and probably only in the last 10 reach MS-70. But those...
Yep, they'll take sets in their original holders. I had my '52 and '53 proof sets put in one of their 5 coin holders. Sent it to them in a Capital...
Less than a week to go!
I just got my first win on Heritage. And I got it for less than my max bid. And my max bid was CDN Bid (with all the fees you HAVE to bid low or...
I went once a couple years ago. "Small" is definitely the correct description. Problem for me is that small shows rarely have what I want. Same...
I have been. In fact Germany vs. Australia starts in about 10 minutes. But this is probably going to wear thin for me. Lots of running around but...
Another memory of the 1980 spike is the mass melting of silver including many coins. "Common date" coins went into the pot along lots of other...
I like working with a dealer who travels to all the big shows. It's almost as if I were there, but better. The dealer has more experience,...
I (obviously) saw the weakness in the stars. What I didn't expect is that it would affect the grade that much. And I missed any problems with the...
The "monster" I remember occurred in 1980. It was caused in part by the Hunt brothers and their attempt to corner the silver market. In early 1980...
As I suspected. Thank you.
I believe I made this suggestion in the past, but I think it needs to be addressed again. There are many threads here on CT that ask for...
It's a bit "baggie", particularly on the cheek where it's highly noticeable. But I don't have any serious problems with it being a MS-64. Even if...
I'll leave the definitive answer to others, but here's my understanding. The short answer is "Yes". Why? Because an older US gold coin is 90% gold...
Which one are you talking about? The monster in ~1980 or the lesser one in ~1990?
I'm a bit confused. To the best of my knowledge I've never participated in a blog. OR Are some of the threads in here blogs?
Agreed. The value of a coin is NOT the price being asked, but it's the price being paid. Along with Heritage and eBay, also look at Teletrade....
No marks in the fields or on the cheek that I can see. Can't tell the cause of the rim irregularities, particularly at 6 on the reverse. If it's...
Unless something unusual happens I always attend on Friday. I get there at the opening time (10AM) and am generally gone by 1PM. Friday has a...
Most definitely. It'll be one of my top coins. As I recall(!) it's a VERY nice looking coin. Original smooth surfaces. Looking for it to come back...
