The difference is - Ebay is considered a retail outlet. Most users are collectors, and will pay end-user prices. Heritage, and many of the other...
What are you guys seeing that makes you think 66? That seems like a ridiculously clean coin for a 66.... but I'm not an Ike specialist.
I've gotten a couple in change over the years, but not many. They are pretty hard to find, understandably. Even the roll searchers are running...
No, assuming that the coin still looks ok. It will get a reduction in grade for the haziness though, to the point where it probably isn't worth it...
Eh, not really. They are fairly common, and routinely go for a few bucks on Ebay.
Yes, I saw the pictures in your link. To my eye, they don't match the pictures of your coin.
Not sure if you are asking for us to guess the grade, or just showing off a new piece. I'd grade it 63. I don't see the doubling on the 3, all...
For a book like you describe, I would recommend CreateSpace. They are run by Amazon, so anything you load there will automatically be sold on...
Very interesting! I was so focused on the ugly obverse that I never even made it to the reverse. The reverse is very dark - do you think that it...
I was thinking the same. So Bob, how and when do you use that? Do you bounce the light off the paper? What kind of coin/surface does this work...
I'm going to guess 63 on yours. It appears to have a nice amount of prooflikeness, not sure if it fully qualifies (almost impossible to tell from...
Its not something that I do often - I've only done it a half dozen times. 3 of those times was because I bought a coin for an album, and the...
I have never seen one of these before.
Stay away from that one. The obverse surfaces look very unnatural - especially the right side in between her arm and the stars. It looks like it...
Now Bob's setup... that's what a real pro looks like.
I set the coin on a towel on the ground. I then take a hammer and thwack the slab around the edges to break the seal, while carefully holding the...
Oh, this is just a basic setup compared to the really over-the-top stuff I'm hoping some of these other guys will post. I've only got one lens, I...
Here is my setup. I have a Canon T3i body, with a 100mm Canon Macro lens. The camera is plugged in with the AC adapter, and I've got the USB...
What sort of blue cocktail is in that goblet? It looks delicious...
I have a Canon, and I use the EOS utility. I have mine tethered and control from my computer for a couple of reasons: First, it is much easier to...
