Yeah I know, but it is still very improbable. The coins were minted 3000 miles apart. First they would somehow have to find their way into the...
I doubt that Doug. I bought the 1886 in 2001 from Heritage and it is holdered in an old small ANACS slab. Either a body bag from NGC or the...
I have a degree in Metallurgy from Lehigh University and specialized in corrosion. The toning is natural and very consistent with bag toning on...
Well the toning looks great to me. The color progression is right (yellow-magenta-cyan) and it lays deeply on the surface. The toning pattern...

The purpose of this thread is to determine which year in the US Mint's history is the most important to Numismatics. I have chosen 6 different...
I would like to say for the record that we have too many well adjusted individuals on this forum that just refuse to let the comments of others...
Stainless, I think we need to put this in perspective. You spent $10 on this coin. As long as you get an uncirculated Franklin, you didn't get...
Slot machines that take quarters still exist? Not in Atlantic City.
Here is another one from Heritage: http://coins.ha.com/common/glossary.php
Well, IMO, you still nailed it. I agree that the reverse has too many hits in the fields to be a solid MS65. However, in fairness to the TPG's,...
