Actually he explained exactly how to fake it so a plated copper cent that weighed 3.11 grams would show on a scale as weighing .93 grams. Not...
I want to see the 93, 94, and 95. Even in G-4 the most common 93 and most common 95 would total more that you paid for the entire set. Since the...
Nope, there is no "over all" law that forbids living persons from appearing on US coins as there is for appearing on the currency. In the case of...
I'll watch how the sales figures go (I only collect the Unc dollars). I kind of expect the McCuliffe dollar to have sales high enough to...
I know you know that, but others here may not.
That China dollar was the one that got me started with Littleton back in 1972.
That is great, if it is true. You have to understand that over the years we have had hundreds of people come through here believing that they...
He is a member here but doesn't come by very often. He spends his time on the NGC forum.
If you do crack it out, can you try and do it as gently as possible and let me have the empty holder?
But, in my opinion, they didn't do a really good job with it. They moved the Indian to the right, his features are cruder. On the reverse they...
Keep in mind the shortcoming of the XRF gun is that it can only sample the SURFACE of the coin down to a depth of 8 to 15 microns. So on a plated...
Other way around, Collectors Universe owned PCGS. Corporate used PCGS shells, PCGS had no say in the matter. And although it really doesn't...
It is an ACG shell, I do not believe it is one of the companies that used the ACG encapsulation service. (Every label I have seen for those has...
Did a little searching and can't find anything about a genuine token like the one in the OP. Hudson Bay company did issue made beaver tokens but...
That is one from the first group that were holdered by Collectors Universe. They have no grades and do not have the PCGS hologram on the back of...
A lot of people with these things make a similar comment. So one question, What do you think it would look like if it was plated AFTER it...
It's a nice diagram to try and illustrate in theory how it would happen, but the punches and the holes aren't really arranged like that in real...
But West Point never struck any of the original Morgan dollars, so it really wouldn't be appropriate to have a 2021 W coin.
Mainly because of the story about the holder having six holes, which was wrong.
The 1921 Peace dollar was only struck at Philadelphia so I wouldn't expect D or S coins for the 2021 Peace. So it seem most reasonable we would...
