I don't collect IHCs. I just have several for my typeset. What I'm also doing is picking up some of the keys and semi-keys from various sets. I...
Here's how I understand your answer. It doesn't mean it's rare. It just means that no other coin of that type has received that grade from that...
Not worth it to me. For a coin like that, no slab...no bid. Mine's a ANACS EF-45/Scratched (not cleaned.) I knew ANACS slabbed cleaned coins...
I have a chance to buy a coin that is "Population 1". Is this a rarity factor? I know there is a number of rarity factor scales. If this is one of...
I see it maxing out at MS-63 (possibly only MS-62.) Reverse is very nice, but too baggie on the obverse in the prime fields. Looks like it could...

That's why I prefer to use my own definition of "typeset". To me 2 (or 3) Seated Liberties halves don't cover all of the major varieties. Here's...

Thanks. I suspected ANA might have turned into ANACS but I've never encountered one of their slabs before.

Toning is a chemical process in which the metal of the coin reacts with things in the environment around it. Iron reacts with oxygen to produce...
Question. How many holes does the Dansco 7070 have for Seated Liberty halves? I put my typeset together based on the Red Book. I ended up with 6...
Leadfoot got it right. Doing a quick bit of research and remembering as best I could, I came up with some numbers. In 1980 gold hit about $850...
I'm lucky. I live between Wash, DC, and Baltimore, so I get 2-3 monster shows a year (500-1000 dealers.) Also get 5-6 medium shows a year too...
Thanks. It's a pretty good typeset. The 1807 is my second oldest coin. My oldest is an 1804 half cent. So, except for that half cent I don't have...
Thanks for the variety on the 1807. I don't have the book so that's why I asked. Only speciality books I have are the half cents, two cents and...
Thanks for the info. I'm going to look for something XF, but sticker shock may cause me to accept a VF. I try to get coins in that range, but...
