Except that using MS70 on copper usually turns the copper blue or purple. And when it does, the coins are often rejected by the TPGs as AT....
Actually they should be cheaper today than they have been in years ! While there may be exceptions for specific coins, taken as a whole coin...
I don't say this often but you did good ! The '26 is the only one that's over-graded. In my opinion of course ;)
Looks to be in a PCGS slab but it's not a true MS, it has wear on most of the high points. But then most Saints do. Finding a true MS Saint is...
The warning is as much if not more for others who read it, not just Kanga ;)
Any paint store will have it.
Well the coin you were asking about is sold now so that renders that much of it moot. But Kanga let me ask you a question, are you sure enough in...

It's pretty common for hairlines to be very difficult to see in pictures, especially on business strikes. Sometimes they can even be difficult to...
I'm well aware of that. I was merely pointing out another example of what you referred to as - an interesting bit of history.
They tell you on their websites so the carriers may vary, but you pay the bill (in advance) in any case. To the best of my knowledge they are all...
Well, that's why I have written it so many times. Unfortunately a common response is that some want to argue with it. And what they don't realize...
I readily acknowledged in my previous posts that there are more than a few coins in major TPG slabs that have foreign substances on them that were...
Natural toning on every coin, not just ASEs, begins at the moment the coin is ejected from the coin press. How fast or how slowly that toning...
