Its not bad at all sir. I like your coin a lot. I was discussing how I arrived at my grade. Yes, errors are collected and worth premiums when...
Offcenter is not uncommon at all, but I have never heard of an ancient where perfectly struck coins do not exist for the issue. Having said that,...
It will hurt your state actually. I know many dealers around there, (I am from Iowa and now live in MN), and one actually told me last week he is...
Surprising and sad at the same time. I have reported obvious, horribly evident fakes to Ebay over and over again and have never received such a...
Actually, I was thinking about this, and think you might see more attention being given to nickels. Think about it, good sized coins, go back...
Absent extraordinary proof, extraordinary claims are ignored. Short of being able to prove a 1856, I think the most the coin can be worth is 1858...
I believe he created another post on here how he was surprised out of the blue that just a few days ago the PO found the box and delivered it to...
You know what is funny? This discussion has somewhat unsettled me. I was getting to a point where I thought I knew something, and then this case...

So, why do people follow Mr. Buffet? Was he handed down from heaven as a holy stock picker? No? Maybe he is a smart man who has navigated and made...
I would not call an auctioneers description a fiduciary responsibility. The auction firm has responsibilities to both parties, he cannot lie to...
First, sorry Op if I derailed this thread if momentarily. I agree with Hobo, (I usually do), that they simply don't know any better. We all...
Great point actually. If anyone really like small details, and collecting varieties, ancients are a field day to them versus most other areas of...
The title of your post made me believe you were talking about US politicians! :) Actually, probably all politicians.
Honestly, most B&M shops have evolved into mainly buying shops for non-collectors more and more. Remember, though, they always were. This whole...
I simply believe sir that it will get resmelted, possibly mixed in with other production from minesin Venezuela, and sold on the open market. The...
But it had the help of a large amount of foreign stockpiles being sold into a weak market. Just saying that I believe this price performance was...
It really depends on your area of numismatics. I am assuming this is a large cent. If most of the value is the fact that it is R-4, but you cannot...
Separate names with a comma.
