Excellent comments. I hadn't thought it out that far.
I agree. I'm looking for one too.
I think you'll find that most of us here use an ordinary spreadsheet for this purpose. Many people have Excel. That way you can tailor the...
That's great. Another milestone reached. Congrats. I'm going to try that with the National Parks quarters from circulation and through trades....
Currently my NGC Registry type set (US Type Set 1792-1964) has dropped down a bit. I'm 18th now, but I have been as high as 13th. I should move up...
Hmmmm, that coin bothers me. First there is the possibility that the MM was added. Yeh, there's also the possibility that the person who added...
Nice group of coins. I've got one complete set of War Nickels for which the criterium was simply Full Steps. As such the grades range from MS-64...
You will note that his set is in the Basic Type Set category. No coins from the 1790's. Mine is in the fuller 1792-1964 type set category. If he...
Worst problems are the marks on the obverse, particularly on the cheek and neck. The strike does appear a bit weak. That's not a major problem but...
Now THAT'S what I want my IHCs to look like. I'll probably start my IHC collection at the Baltimore show coming up June 12. I'll be after a...
In this day and age I don't buy raw coins, even if I have a refund guarantee. It's not worth the hassle of going through the refund process. And I...
Very nice coins, and pretty much all in grades that I want for my type set. I looked at that linked Dansco 7070 Type Set. It's the first time...
Assuming the breaks in the surface finish on the eagle's breast feathers are from bag wear, I see it definitely getting a minimum of MS-63. And...
No significant problems with the reverse. So the obverse will be what determines the grade. For an opinion from me I'd need a better obverse...
The Baltimore Whitman show is only 3 weeks away. And for the first time in a long while I have some money. I'm in the process of finalizing my...
For coin insurance "Hugh Wood" is mentioned by the ANA. If you look at their site you will see what sort of security container is recommended....
You did well! Without knowing what other books you have AND what your collecting interest(s) are I don't have any other suggestions for you. But...
I'm the same way. Much of my collection consists of coins that are unique to me. And they are in my "Final" grade, i.e., grades that I don't...
I personally use Flynn's book mostly because it's newer (1994).
I'm not a fan of rainbow toning so this coin doesn't particularly grab me. Do I have rainbow toned coins? Yes, a few, but only because they were...
