I'm not the least bit surprised. Pre-COVID, there was little chance of winning in the evening; with work-from-home, I'd expect quite a lot of...
There are a few real coins with this coloring, but at this point they're WAY outnumbered by the fakes. Stay away.
Or you can camp on the new Buy It Now listings watching for gold that's not overpriced, and be faster on the Buy button than anybody else who's...
And not to dredge up old arguments, but vinegar without the peroxide also works, more slowly and controllably.
And they can't lose money selling them if they price them so high that nobody buys them, right? Right?
Hmm. How long were orders being accepted? For those who jumped, was it any better this time than it was for the previous quick sellouts?
I know large images accentuate flaws, but I could almost swear that's graffiti on the cheek, especially from the first and second images. It may...
I'm not ready to jump to that conclusion based on a "worst of" thread. Everybody goofs.
Cream Separators: Serious Business

But-but-but you should never buy raw coins, because if a desirable coin isn't in a PCGS or NGC slab, it must mean there's something wrong with it!...
@johnmilton, are you thinking that there's a notch cut out of the coin? The pictures make it hard to see, but I think it's a regular hole with a...
What in the world? Is your bank going into the coin-shop business on the side?
"Price too high" seems to be a rapidly moving target for the Mint these days.
The proposal to put her on the $20 bill has turned her into a polarizing figure. If not for that, we probably wouldn't be facing several years of...
TBH, most of these don't do much for me -- they just seem way too busy and overblown, more like a comic cover than a coin or medal. But, YOW,...
I'll do better than that: I'll lead with a disclaimer that I've rarely seen images of real coins of this sort, and I'm the furthest thing from an...
Never mind introducing a CAC "Brown Bean" for coins that are low for their grade -- these examples clearly show that we need a black bean.
Your face-on photos are small and not super-sharp, but I don't see anything to make me think it's not fake. I've often seen one fake among a...
