I have hit a very dry spell in my half dollar rolls. How ya all doing with halves?
Well as you two argue if the die crack should be zero deduct or a five point deduct, I'll sit here in awe that Paul got a 66 peace dollar for 375...
I vote post mint also. In the first photo the metal against Lincoln's shoulder, the copper vertical edge looks clean and untoned. My thoughts...
So if I have a Lincoln Chronicle set and a complete set of frankies do I get 12 post?
I agree about the slab. I have broke many of slabs before. I was just worried about buying an unslabbed coin from an auction house that I have...
I remember last year when silver spiked the same thing happened. Maybe its a good time to by a set at spot. Hum now I'm thinking this could be...
That's one smokin hot kennedy. The only mark that I am worried about is the one on the cheek. I'd give the 1966 a grade of MS-66.

I was thinking that it had been cleaned and couldn't figure out what distracting abrasions really was really trying to say. Do you think they...
I was bored tonight and was looking through an up and coming Bowers and Merena auction. I have never even bid in one of their auctions but I...
I visit their site often. I have yet to buy from them but I will once I find a coin that I am ready to buy.
you might get $50 from them on ebay right now, the question is, Is that worth your time? If not cash them in for older ones.
With the assumption that the line in the tiara is a die crack which is very common for the coin especially in 1922's and 1923's I give it a ms-66....
One thing that I have seen with the folder type albums is if you try to place the coin into the hole while it is on a hard surface, like a table...
Ya, I agree after I wrote the OP I went back and looked at the pics some more. Nice coin with nice fields for the grade and very attractive tone,...
