I'm a bit late to the party, but my guess would have been AU-55.
I went a little lower than the group, at 63PL. There are some pretty severe marks on the cheek, neck, and obverse field. There's also quite a few...
Last 64+ sold for $1620 on Heritage in 2019... and everyone says the market has been heating up. I don't think the price guides have caught up yet.
Yes, it is an RPM. Judging by the looks of it, I'd say it is RPM-023. It's really nice, because it is a wide, clear separation and quite easy to...
Amazon doesn't really sell them - individuals are listing them on the Amazon platform. Kind of like Ebay or Etsy. Any coins I've seen for sale...
That's a wowzer for sure! Very wide separation on that one! James Wiles mentions a die crack on the lapel for a late stage. I can't see it in...
I'm kinda surprised nobody bit at $1400. That seems like a good price. Was this an auction with in-hand viewing? I too would have been concerned...
MS = Mint State. This means the coin is at least MS-60 or above. All Unirculated coins are MS. BU = Brilliant Uncirculated. This is a...
Are you talking about a Covid waiver that people have to sign to attend, @Publius2 ? It's not a terrible idea, although I'm sure it would have to...
Summer FUN has always been a smaller show. They still hold it at the Orlando conference center, but in one of the smaller halls. 240 dealers is...

NGC is really good, though. They try to only certify genuine coins. If I were buying an expensive coin like that, I would go through a reputable...
Yes, that appears to be some environmental damage, or corrosion. The rest of the coin looks nice, so its a shame about that area.
One coin definitely fills both slots. I know that the NGC Registry allows this (and I've done it a few times). I'm not going to buy 2 of the same...
Only the ancients. Moderns they do guarantee. They have never "guaranteed" ancients.
Yes, these were submitted under 2 different tiers. The one on the right had a higher fee, because they put a lot more information on it. They put...
I agree, it is a planchet flaw. If it flaked off, it would be a "lamination," but it is retained.
As has been widely reported, the coin market seems to be heating up a bit. While these have been selling for $2k over the past few years, the end...
If you're going for a global Box of 20, then a world map isn't a bad idea. But, the pictures need to be cropped properly, and they need to be tied...
Oh... and I just noticed... the custom set you have listed below the picture has 11 coins, but you only have 10 pictured. Either show all the...
