These are beautiful, but one in particular caught my eye ;) It looks like they've only graded one 1912 in PL. I think on yours, the reverse looks...
That book is amazing, of course. But you have to have seriously deep pockets to afford anything that book talks about! Definitely not for the...
I think full steps on Lincolns would be a hard sell. I could see someone arguing for a "full lincoln" instead - since that is an easier thing to...
I think I'd call this a high VF. I don't think it quite makes it to EF. However, if you look at the price guide, 1931 is one of the key dates...
It adds a little extra flavor ;)
Nope, they aren't. I got a cheerio cent in a box once, but i never was lucky enough for the dollar. But damn, you can bet I ate a hell of a lot...
Oops, sorry, double post
Can you post pictures? Because I collect breathtakingly toned Lincoln cents, and I always want to see more. Here are some examples, which I...
This piece is really, really fake. It might be pewter or lead, but it is clearly fake.
It says right on the front: Republique D'Haiti
If you want a single book that covers all series, then the Encyclopedia of US Gold Coins is your best bet:...
That is a very odd position to take, and I wholeheartedly disagree with it. Color is EXTREMELY important. For closeup die variety photographs, I...
In the regular red, or the mega-red? I haven't actually seen the 2019 version yet, but if they added a bunch of stuff, then that is cool.
I don't want to revive this age old argument, because we've hashed and rehashed it more times than I can count. But the cent shown here has been...
I don't know what PCGS is smoking on this one. That's not a proof. It is not the right die variety for the proofs. If you want to read more, the...
I actually prefer split grading, where they give us a grade for both sides. So, this coin would be a G6/VG10. There really is no hard and fast...
I really wouldn't worry too much about VAMs. Many of them you literally need a microscope to see.... that doesn't seem enjoyable or desirable to...
I thought that was just understood. Sorry, forgot to use the /sarcasm tags again
2018 would be fine, or 2017. If you're buying it new, and intend to use it for a while, stick with the past couple of years. Especially if you are...
There is a minor distinction between die break and die crack. A die break is more severe. I'd call yours a die crack. These are quite common, but...
Separate names with a comma.
