Thank you! It really wasn't a hard choice since it was the only Seated Half that I had and it came from a collector friend.
On we go to page 4. *Walking Liberty Half from 1942 is cleaned and bought at $15 when spot was high...this one I will try to replace with a nice...
The Seated Half has some toning and the cleaning isn't too bad. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
And here is page 3 with only one coin. This is one of my special coins since it came from a good collector friend! *1854 Seated Liberty with...
It happens to all of us. I have bought some silver coins right before a dip in spot prices (as I will detail in a future post). Look at the...
Thank you! The Whitman album has 20th and 21st century coins (but no 19th century). Here is an example on Amazon (might not be the cheapest):...
Thank you! I have also heard that old adage and it does hold some merit. My goal is to find those detail coins that are have slight issues or...
Back to page two. The Buffalo Nickel has some nice rainbow toning (you can't quite see it in the photo), but unfortunately was tooled. Still good...
Congrats on the Trade Dollar! That is a coin I've never owned and look forward to acquiring at some point! Grade preferences are important and so...
Good tips! I'm not spending any new money yet. All the coins currently in the album were the ones I already had (some will be upgraded, but those...
With page 2, two of the coins used to be slabbed. The Half Dime formerly rested in a red PCI details holder. It has some slight issues, but the...
Unlike page 1, page 2 has a bit more going for it: *1858 Half Dime *1938 Buffalo Nickel *1958 Jefferson Nickel *1891 Seated Dime *1964 Silver...
Everyone can feel free to share their own type set experiences. Also if anyone has comments / suggestions on how to go about completing a type...
Page 1 has only two coins so far: *an 1845 Large cent...a purchase from my LCS for $20 (perhaps a slight over-pay...this was around 10 years...
As some may have seen, Dansco recently released a new run of the the popular Type Set Album. I have always been fascinated by the idea of a type...
If the idea is to collect the coin, then nothing should be done at all. What's the point of the sticker or the new holder? In fact, if it is all...
1. PF 64..a few too many hairlines (if I'm interpreting the picture correctly) 2. PF 65 3. MS 64+...very nice, one of my favorite commems 4. PF...
Happy Birthday! Looks like an MS 64 Small white anacs holder? That hint of rim toning above Pluribus is similar to what I've seen on those...
I don't think that's the best route. NGC may say it's under graded or a mechanical error and put it in a new AU 50, 53, or 55 holder. That would...
Maybe ebay first ;) Maybe at some point it'll go to CAC.
