The PCGS price guides are overvalued for most series. For a few series it's wildly overvalued (high-grade modern proofs) and for a few series it's...
I disagree. I've seen key-date, acid-dated buffaloes sell for significant premiums over dateless coins. I nic-a-dated some Liberty nickels a...
You want the coin to have a split. The term FB is a bit of a misnomer. More proper is FSB ("full, split bands.) If there is no split, then...
It's not solid gold. Not much sense arguing with people like that, though.
1860 Indian head cent, PO-1 details, environmental damage. Send it to ANACS and sell it to someone who's trying to collect a "worst-ever"...
What it's worth depends on the grade, primarily. Average circulated Henning nickels that I've seen trade around $20. What makes you think you...
If you're asking if you should send it in for third-party grading/certification, my answer would be no. With the cost of postage, insurance, and...
You might want to either purchase some rolls described as a "good mix" of dates, or just buy a roll or two from each decade (1909-1919, 1920-1929,...
If it really is a two-sided cameo proof Washington, and if it's at least Gem, I'd have no problem paying $25 for it. If it's an impaired proof,...
I would have no problem buying that coin as a F-12. Most technically, it's not quite there, but so close that I can't imagine anyone quibbling...
I'm glad you decided to join us. I used to collect cards myself, but I've changed completely to coins now. Of course, I still have those cards,...
By the way, a cent of 1976 should weigh 3.11 grams. It was only in 1982 that the weight was changed to 2.5 grams.
Wicked-nice pics. PR-64 CAM.
You might want to take it to a jeweler and ask them nicely if they can get a precise weight on it. The earlier opinions given are most likely...
I can tell you where NOT to look for information. I checked my Rulau book (first 100 pages) for information on counterstamps on early American...
Cherrypicker's doesn't list a 1928-S DDO, but they do list a large-mintmark and small-mintmark variety (the large mintmark being the more valuable...
Well, with that dig next to the date, I'd say it's no better than MS-63, but it probably graded out at MS-64 or better. By the way, I think the...
No problem. I'd love to see the pics.
Sounds like a lathe-job to me.
Now that I look at your pictures, instead of the pretty words, I see that you actually have bust dimes, and the links I gave you may be useless....
Separate names with a comma.
