Thank you for listening to my recommendations and adjusting the Franklin prices. In late October, I sent an email to Steve Roach, editor of...
Oh, I would have no trouble at all spending that kind of money on a nice NGC MS-65FBL 1953S. The hard part would be getting that kind of money....
Of course, I don't know exactly how limited your budget is, but you'd be surprised at how affordable these can be. I got this one, with a Lee Gast...
That is a simple question with an incredibly complicated answer. There are important differences between artificial and natural toning, based upon...
Ahhh... my friend, if you want a truly amazing Mercury dime, look no further. NGC MS-67, in an old fatty. [IMG] [IMG]
BNB... you and I disagree pretty much every time you post. green18 and Lehigh are giving you great advice.... please learn before you attempt to...
Giving mother nature a shove is AT. No other way around it. I will not answer your question. Only after proving yourself worthy of the knowledge...
It is very much not worth slabbing, but I will now spend a little while helping you understand why. First, the coin is probably circulated. There...
Very nice coin. I would suggest, however, that if you intend to complete any of these sets that you choose one or two at a time to focus on....
Its really not a bad counterfeit as far as they go. I definitely wouldn't have spotted it, although I also wouldn't have bid on it. Raw keys on...
There is only one reference book on the Seated Lib series, and that is the Wiley & Bugert book mentioned earlier. However, it has been out of...
On average, I strongly agree with that statement. Buying the coin which is 50% of bid is almost always going to get you the ugliest coin - there...
I know a guy who bought the finest graded 1959 Prooflike Franklin (NGC MS-65 PL) for less than a hundred bucks on Heritage. I would willingly pay...
I agree ( and the symbol I would use would be ~ ). There is a slight oscillation about the equilibrium point, depending on market conditions,...
I would never crack a coin out of a major TPG slab. Even if I disagreed with the grade and wanted to resubmit, I would resub in the holder. I am...
Thanks y'all. I really honestly have no idea where I want to go next. I'm in the process of trying to decide that now, and will be picking up a...
Just for future reference, Overton only covers early halves (1794-1836). Wiley and Bugert is pretty much the only reference for Seated Liberty Halves.
It is interesting, yes. I don't think I would have paid anywhere near that amount - I probably would have paid $15 for it.
I think I used around 100 pennies per pound, because I didn't know exactly how many are in a pound.
With the purchase of the incredibly elusive 1952S tonight, I completed my Franklin half dollar set. Every coin is a minimum of 64FBL, every coin...
