For modern coins, yes, it is nearly impossible (since there are so many that very few coins can be considered scarce, not to mention rare.)...
I believe the largest multiple I ever paid was for this Franklin. Absolutely one of the best 63D's I've ever seen, and I paid roughly 7x for it....
Hehe... I can now enter this thread :) [img]
Great guesses everyone, and most of you were pretty close. NGC graded it MS-64, and I believe that Tater is spot on when he says its a 63 with a...
Yes, I believe I know that to which you refer. I have heard it described as the AT sort of "floats" on the surface of the coin, whereas the NT...
Note that I also have not seen the coin in hand. I only ordered it about 10 minutes before starting the thread this afternoon. I am relying on the...
Paul, that kind of surprises me. The obverse is why I bought this coin. The coin has a definitely NT appearance to my eyes, including the clear...
Just wanted to say... I recently looked at your Peace Dollar toner collection, and .... oh my. Wow. What a beatiful set. I think my favorite is...
The coin to me is clearly NT. What PCGS would have done is anyone's guess.
If sent to PCGS, yes. That was my reference to the ludicrous, ridiculous, and absolutely inane comment David Hall recently made. This little...

I believe the coin market will bottom out in the first third of the year. The coin market is already showing signs of recovery. Gold has reached...
Well, David Hall says its AT anyways - I disagree!!! Bought this on a whim, looking through a well known toner dealer's inventory online today...
Just got mine in the mail this afternoon. Thanks! I love the die polish and late die state of the dime, and I believe that this is the first piece...
Collect89 - really bad idea to give out your hotel info. REALLY BAD IDEA!!!! Please, either you edit it soon, or maybe a mod can edit it? In the...
Start off slow, eh? How 'bout this one, NGC MS-65 [IMG] [IMG]
As a corollary to my recent gold dollars thread, if you were going to collect WLH's, how would you do it? I'm tossing around a few different...
Looks like he's trying to duplicate textile toning from a bag. Problem is, Peace dollars don't get this type of toning. I've only ever seen it on...
Those are great points, Leadfoot, cave troll, and Lehigh, and exactly the sorts of things I'm considering right now - before I start the set....
That's actually a really good job for a first attempt at photo'ing a slabbed coin. They can be tricky, especially if they are in there a little...
