The 1893-O definitely is fake, the date isn't right. I strongly suspect the 1896 is also fake. The date is "funky" on it as well and I just...
From my reading of PCGS's information it looks like they would NOT recognize this under the variety submission category. Their link to the...
Your lucky. At most banks if you do that the first thing they do is ask "Do you have an account here?" If you say yes they want the account #,...
Yes could you imagine paying $15 and getting shipped that coin.
I would agree with Krispy, it is probably just from one note transferring ink to another from being tightlybundled and the ink not being...
In my opinion that is an excellent attitude to use in approaching coin collecting. Have fun, enjoy the coins and the history and don't worry too...
The money you tied up in hoarding the wheat cents would most likely have given you a better return if it had been used or invested than what the...
Looks like a grease filled die. Not sure but possibly an 1884.

I've seen these plated, 8 kt, 22 kt, and 24 kt. Since they are privately made they can be made any way the company wants. The only way to really...

I'd rather keep the $1K.
This sounds normal to me. Typically if you buy from a dealer and then try and resell within a short time you will almost always end up losing...
Yes but the sellers are paying for that non-sale. Unless they have changed it there is a nice fee for reserve auctions and that fee has to be...
Highest sale price in the last thirty days for an auction and not a BIN, $11,235 for an 1854 double eagle...
Makes more sense than this auction which was listed as an alternate listing. I mean German I can understand, but Spanish?...
Is this to be a general information book or a specific reference on the varieties? The varieties are pretty well covered at the moment but a good...
Have to admit that until you asked I hadn't even looked at the coin. I would agree that years ago (1980's) you probably wouldn't have gotten...
Highest price for an actual sale in the past thirty days is an 1857 gold dollar in MS-67+...
When you consider that ALL of the 7/8's are technically doubled dies because they have been hubbed with two different hubs each with a different...
