John The answer to that question really depends on the quality of the coin. For lower end coins and raw coins (under $100), I search E-Bay....
Most people here know that I rarely even consult price guides other than to obtain a multiplier. The reason for listing the price guides was so...
I find this coin to be very interesting. Rainbow toned mint state IHC's are more elusive than most would think and this one seems to have...
It seems my set of raw rainbow toned Jefferson Nickels is growing daily. This is a very nice batch with some wildly toned and some more subtly...

I was thinking the exact same thing. The corrosion is limited to the devices on the obverse which indicates die rust. I checked and that is...

I agree, [IMG] :hail:
I agree that both of these coins are NT, but I wouldn't settle for a raw toned Mercury Dime minted after 1934. They are just too common in BU and...
Mike, That makes perfect sense. I can't translate text into a grade either. I have to look at hundreds of coins in Heritage's archives in order...
Ruben sold me a bridge a while ago, are you interested in buying it?
