I'm not surprised that they'd ask for ID -- there's an incredible patchwork of local and state laws around pawnshop transactions, especially...
Not worth a 20-minute drive? That's still a shorter trip than the one to my "local" show...
I'm pretty sure I've got dateless Type 3 SLQs -- can't read the date, but can tell it was recessed -- that clearly show a mint mark. You could be...
Edit: never mind, original post fixed now.
Yup, somebody didn't leave instructions with their collection. :( Be sure to check that 42-D carefully for the overdate. It's easy to miss....
Nope, not a clue?
Quick, somebody grab one of them!
"Why do you keep saying such mean things about Mr. Capone? Many of Chicago's leading public benefactors have to resort to some questionable...
More likely, PCGS has a data-quality problem -- they don't always weed out bogus auction results. I would suspect either incorrect details in the...
Again, the mintmarks on this issue simply don't disappear that quickly as the coin wears.
I'd pick the most valuable coin that I could legally sell -- then sell it, and put the proceeds toward providing for my family, so I could focus...

Assuming it doesn't all get undone now.
And blowing up a low-resolution image doesn't help, either. At this point all you're doing is making compression artifacts bigger. You'd need a...
I see two dark vertical marks close to where a mintmark would be. If I zoom in and stare really, really hard, I see a fish swimming from left to...
If you're selling widgets for $100, and you realize that many of your customers are buying multiples and reselling them for $200, what's your...
ZOMG. I've been fascinated by the "broken sword" design ever since I first read about it. (NOT a big war enthusiast here.) I'm not sure I'd ever...
It's pretty for a roll find, but not worth getting graded unless you want to pay $30 to slab a coin that's probably worth less than $1.
Now, that's a well-posed question. It's a darn shame I know nothing about the coins, and so can't offer a good answer. :( I do see that someone...
...I COMPLETELY missed that in all my previous views!
