As uncirculated coins, none of them should have "wear" - did you mean that the others aren't as well struck?
Dealers have MS64's available for approximately $50. Also, I would give the strong benefit of the doubt to the NGC graders who have seen it in...
No, I am not suggesting that. But I believe that buyers are often fighting large odds in trying to buy uncertified coins (or those graded by other...
Why would you take the risk of buying such a coin at MS65 money based on an image? Even the best of images rarely show all of the flaws on a coin....
I'm fine with readers deciding for themselves whether your "information" is accurate or not. And, in order not to derail this thread further I...
David, if you do the legwork, are patient and a little bit lucky, you will occasionally find sellers who are willing to sell such coins for less...
Nice try, but I don't think or claim that I know it all - not even close, in fact. I do, however, have a much better idea than you do about what...
Your point/argument that if I haven't heard of it , how can I be sure it's incorrect, makes no sense. I haven't heard of 5c or 10c per coin...
I have never heard of bulk order grading fees for anywhere close to as low as $1 per coin. I believe that is just plain incorrect, and by a large...

There are certainly ways to spend less money on your collecting and still enjoy yourself. Also, there is no need to commit to it on a life-long...
Ebay typically sends a message to bidders, letting them know the listing has been cancelled and suggesting that they don't do anything outside of...
I hope someone else will have a better answer than I do, but I think you raised a good question and I want to at least try to give an explanation...
I would strongly avoid such companies. Chances are excellent that the coins are over-graded and/or priced too high. As a general rule of thumb, I...
Here's my version of "Let's be fair" - it is obvious to those who know what a genuine 1916-D dime should look like that the coin in question is...
Glad to hear it Frank, as I had concerns that it might be mild corrosion. If you didn't already do so, please check it carefully with a loupe - it...
In this case my guess is that it's an enhanced image, as opposed to an enhanced coin.
Frank, what is the dark/discolored area near the rim on the overse at approximately 5:30? Thanks.
There are plenty of ways that coins get scratched which have nothing to do with whizzing. A whizzed coin will have a completely different...
