I agree. The concept can be with any level of spend. Its a good idea to force people to concentrate on quality, which some people didn't pay...
Its limiting yourself to 20 of the most interesting coins you can find. It basically is the antithesis of my collecting interest. I do not...
Oh heck yeah. "Toning" is a form of corrosion. It goes through the different colors, then to shiny black, then to matte black. When it hits this...
You need to understand grading is critical in pricing. A MS67 will sell for hundreds or thousands of times more than a Good example. Your first...
Depend on grade of course. In same grade, I doubt it sir.
MANY of them have cracked dies. In fact, I would hazard that a specimen without a cracked die is worth more. Nickel is tough. We were one of the...
