I was looking at this coin again this evening, just gazing on the beauty of the surfaces, when I noticed something really cool - there is a pretty...
I don't have a PL silver Washington yet. Douglas (aka coinman1794 on NGC) has a really nice 67PL 47S for sale, but its rather pricey. I haven't...
I did indeed see the collection on Heritage in December. It was called the Bagne collection, and it seems like well over half of all prooflike...
Leadfoot, what grade would you recommend for PL gold? Is 62 high enough, or would you recommend 63 (or more)? I need to know how much the gold in...
If you post links/pictures to the two coins, we may be able to help you decide or evaluate the coins, and point out things you may have missed...
Well, so I know I said I wasn't going to spend any more money for a while, after the recent large purchase..... but, I saw this come up and knew I...
I don't believe I've ever seen that many nicely toned SBA's all in one place before. I'll answer back with a DMPL SBA. You can ask Schatzy - these...
I'm going to guess 53. The coin has enough wear that it won't (shouldn't) ever make it into an MS slab - look at her cheek, hair, eagle's feathers...
All the time. I never go to a major show without a bagful of things I either upgraded, changed my mind about, shifted away from, etc. And I have...
I will definitely be acquiring prooflike gold for my prooflike US typeset, when the budget allows.
Back when I worked on the oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico, there was no one later night than me - I worked the night shift 6pm to 6am.
Man, I go away for a few hours and look at all the amazing stuff posted! I don't think I've seen any Mercs on here yet ( I might have missed them)...
I don't have anything close to Marauder's stuff, but I've got a few toners. I'll start you all off with some Frankie's, of course: [img] [img]...
I discuss this in detail towards the end of the article. The fact is, no one really knows. Maybe 4 dies for 1958, and maybe 3 dies for 1959? But...
The easiest way to get rolls of US coins in England would probably be to find a "roll buddy" - you ship him rolls of English coins, and he ships...
BTW stands for Booker T. Washington - a commemorative half dollar. What you have is a WLH - Walking Liberty Half.
I wrote an extensive article, covering everything you need to know about type II reverse Franklins. I have several of them, although I am still...
If the coin looks like an MPL, and is quite obviously one, I doubt the graders take the extra time to look at the diagnostics and confirm that it...
I do not like this coin really much at all - especially not at 67*. No coin with a huge fingerprint should ever grade above 65 in my opinion, no...
Cool post, Chris, and great pictures. What is the value difference between the No FG and Weak FG?
