Hard to tell from photos I would have to see it in hand. Try natural lighting. The photos are very washed out. I find older coins from time to...
Saw these same coins for sale on ETSY, although they claimed they were "restrikes" no of course not. And the price was absurdly low.
They made proofs in Philly before they went back to SF. If the luster is there, details, thick squared rims, and a LOT of step detail, it is...
The first coin has that bad pale gray washed out look. The dentils and the digits are incorrect. The second. again bad pale gray patina and the...
Unfortunately there's less hunting now then there used to be. Everything changes and rarely for the better.
Pleasant surprise on my quarter miscount. I always kept jars of 400 because that's $100 and in this jar I thought I had 328. But the physical...
The obverse looks very good. If it is VF it is HIGH VF. I would say XF obv and VF reverse. Need to blow these photos up. I'd go VF 35. The SLQs...
It took a hit, but it's not too bad. May depend how fussy the grader is, and they make their money on resubmissions. But I would just use another...
I have blank quarter albums so they will just go in order after I get Althea Gibson. Haven't seen 1 2026 coin and they came out in January.
I just hit 7000+ dimes 9900+ quarters so that will be a big milestone and (3600 nickels). This is not including my Colorado hunts 30 years ago,...

No highlights, but I made 2x the cost of my gas.[ATTACH]
Sunday was a go. First silver of the year and a dollar coin so a good hunt in the frigid tundra of 2026. The first site I pop the dollar coin....
I only hit a few spots and the ground is frozen, but I still pulled up a dollar coin, a silver medallion and some other swag. I was going to go...
Why is their such a spread on spot between Kitco and APMEX? Either way face value for 90% coins is now 68.
The problem with the current grading system is not the 70 point max, but the fact that all coins, all issues, all dates are not all graded on the...
To me mint state means it should look the day it was struck. Uncirculated and full luster. Way too many coins that circulated and have scratches...
Another disaster. Although the final target was a dollar coin.[ATTACH] [ATTACH]
The one in my book was nice. It even toned a little after 25 years. But this one had less nicks, and better luster. I kept the old one anyway. I...
I got skunked as usual. (W's. S's, silver, etc.) But I had 4 upgrades. Jovita Idar, there were a large number of very nice ones in these rolls...
