I've got my copy and have already read it. Well composed and written. It's a tough job keeping the reader interested in a subject that is...
"I know I'm ugly and look weird. And maybe a bit wonky. But look how much some (insert your descriptive noun here) paid for me ... raw!"
IF you go with PCGS or NGC, especially with a CAC sticker, then the grade pretty much becomes moot. What they label the coin is the truth (within...
The grade doesn't matter in this case. The damage (scratch) is too severe. Save your money until you can afford a better coin. And I don't mean a...
Think about it this way. Whichever one you buy, it will be for the rest of your collecting life. You should not buy with the thought that you'll...
Thanks for the compliments. I agree with you about AU's. Great way to save money and still get a coin that resembles MS. If at all possible I...
While working with the images of dimes I thought, 'This denomination has GOT to have the most varieties!' Then I got to the quarters. But that's...
The comparison is between pre-defined type sets: Dansco 7070, NGC Registry and PCGS Registry. But people can define their type set any way they...
That's the NGC Registry Type Set through 1964 (97 coins) BUT they don't include the "0.01 Coronet (new design)". I don't know why not. I have 78...
Here it is: Face 0.005 Liberty Cap, Facing Left 0.005 Liberty Cap, Facing Right 0.005 Draped Bust 0.005 Classic Head 0.005 Braided Head 0.01...
Not according to the greysheet. $700 is ASK for a VG.
Are you happy with them? If so, then you did well. Especially for only $1.
I think the answers drifted away from the original questions, at least in part. And I'm not going to really try and answer the first question....
I agree with GDJMSP. Nothing really to add to that answer.
Here's mine so that you can make a comparison. As you can see I got confused about the grade. I got it mixed up with my 1853 quarter. Mine is an...
That's what Goodman suggests in his book, but I got the impression he used diffusers to soften the harsh highlights. So the short answer is, 'No,...
If it doesn't make AU I'd be surprised. I looked at mine (AU-53) and yours looks about the same. Nice coin.
This is a continuing problem I have with photographing proof coins. It looks like the coin was wiped with dirty water in the 10-4 direction. It...
Nice before/after comparison. Good learning tool. Thanx.
Very good chance I'll be going. Like I said elsewhere, I'm having a difficult time finding certain coins to flesh out a couple of my active sets....
