Nice Coin !! :cigar: I don't like that particular holder but the coin is very nice.
There are some very good looking coins that you can get for the price of 2 bullion coins. The 1923-D in MS-66 condition comes to mind.
Another reason why South/Central America is more likely than Europe: European hoards tended to be moved much more often as they were constantly...
The talk of them being from Europe has gained some currency in recent years, but I believe the original bagging -- falling apart -- traced its...
Yup....which is WHY I'm a bit suspicious/cautious. :D Might in fact look that same amount better if you had both coins in hand, but who knows.
2 nice coins, IM. :D But again....for all we know....the luster and eye appeal could be a function of the lighting, angles, pixel resolution,...
There's lots of information on the 1908 No Motto Hoard....I've posted here and over on the NGC site as well. Keep in mind that Ron Gillio has...
Absolutely, Jeff....deliberately or inadvertently, lighting can so change the appearance of a coin that it isn't funny. I believe our own GDJMSP...
Check out other 66's on HA and GC and see if others impress you more. Every coin is different, even when given the same grade, so get one in the...
Sometimes you need to go up to a 66+ or 66 CAC or even an MS-67 to get a nice-looking 1908 NM. It doesn't have the luster or strike appeal of...
Boy, that is some minute difference. :D
What is the "Open 3" ??
I'm showing 768,890 Liberty DEs from the NGC population total and 749,105 for the Liberty DE's in the PCGS population total. I believe you...
I just quickly consulted the Bowers book from 2004 on the quick last night. Obviously, dated, but I just wanted a quick comparision between the...
IM, my point again is that regardless of the merits of the coin, TPGs, or whatever....that buying a very common 1908 NM from the infomercial will...
Thanks...as I am not likely to go big into Liberty DEs (what $$$ and time I have I usually focus on Saints)....so I would like to probably get a...
The 1908 No Motto is a common coin in MS-65, even up to MS-67. That coin link is for an MS-64 coin like the TV show is selling and is offering it...
Sept 2022 Update: Wow, the prices really ARE sticky to the downside. They want $3,500 for an MS-64 No-Motto Saint, probably a 50% premium to...
Thanks IM, ....what do you think about going down to the AU-58 level to get an older coin from the 1800's ? BTW...I know there are about 3.9...
Wow, the price really jumps for the Liberty commons relative to the Saint common years, huh ? Yeah, the 1904 is always there....surprised the 65...
