He could have been telling the truth or he could be lying. Many, many coins have been cleaned in various ways over the years, going back to a...
A deer cam would work good for outside but I wouldn't recommend for in the house. They're very quiet but not silent. If somebody heard it, they...
You don't think the wing tip could be just weakly struck? I'm just throwing it out there. I would think for the wing tip to be that worn that...
I'm betting the luster is probably nicer than what is showing up in the pic. I don't notice much for wear. Would be nice to see it under more...
Yeah, stainless, that was fun going back. Saw some funny posts. Didn't find anything I'm embarrased about. (I probably embarass myself more...
You would need much larger pics with more light to even attempt to grade it. I can't see any of the details or possible contact marks.
NGC lists a MS70 at $748 and they're usually high. It's a nice looking one but it's a long ways from being in a MS70 slab at this point.
Spot price of gold is at $1096.00 an ounce right now. See here for yourself: http://www.kitco.com/charts/livegold.html That coin is what's...

Tell that to their share holders. I heard their profits are still falling right now because of the economy. Not as many people buying things....
So was I. I wasn't being serious about half of it. Take a chill pill man. I wasn't being confrontational at all. I guess you just don't...
Well, good luck. I purchased 3 supposedly original rolls off ebay and they were mostly 36s and 37s with some really bad ones thrown in. In...
I wasn't gonna post but I'm in a good mood tonight. :D See you around.
The later 30's dates are very common in this condition. The 36's especially seem to have sharp dates along with the 1930. Try finding a 1914 or...
That W is just the coin designer's initial. Adolph Weinman designed the Mercury dime. Most coins have the designer's initials on them somewhere....
Which is pretty much what everyone guessed in the original thread along with explanations as to why. They got it exactly right and at least it...
Great to hear back from you so soon. The obverses are a little tough to see but the reverses look fantastic. Great luster. If there's no...
