How much does your dad know about coins? Do you have any experience as a dealer? I can't comment on the business aspects of it, but for the...
The only thing I see is die deterioration. As the force of striking coins wears upon the die, the elements tend to get bloated and distorted. The...
I think the 1824 Bust is my favorite of the group as well. It is gorgeous. Yes, it was almost certainly dipped (it is way too white to not have...
No, on the SMS. Very much no. Read this link for more info: http://www.pcgscoinfacts.com/Coin/Detail/6844?redir=t Grade is probably 63 or 64,...
From those pictures, I'll say AU-53 and AU-58. However, those aren't good pictures for grading. The grades could be EF-40 to MS-66.
At the FUN show last week, there were several 64 Kennedy's that looked like this: In my opinion, the obverse of this one is incredibly...
It looks like a modern imitation of an ancient, if you ask me.
I had a great time - one of the best shows I've attended in a while. When the coin I got comes back from NGC, I'll post a thread and show report....
Oh man, I really hope prices for everything on the bourse are this weak. It is going to be a fantastic trip if that's the case! Well, goodnight...
I would really like a Flowing Hair Half. I think they are beautiful, but the prices are just a little too high for the grade I want (VF at least)....
This is the first big auction in a while where there isn't a huge name collection ginning up publicity. I think the next Pogue is in February,...
That is Great Collections, not Heritage.
The FUN show is one of the biggest shows of the year. It is always the first week of January. This auction is just really weak. A lot of the...
Show us the reverse? It looks to be attractive. These are worth a few bucks in low circulated grades like that.
Yikes, did you see the '89 in 68? $6k.... and the 1890 in 68 did the same. Geez, that 1890 was a gorgeous coin. And the price guide on them both...
I think in general, the Seated quarters in this auction are more attractive than the Barber dimes. They are doing better, but they are still not...
Yes, this is PMD. It is actually intended to look like an incomplete planchet error (known in slang as a clip), but this one is not a genuine...
Barber dimes are up now, and they are weak. Every single one is going for under Numismedia and CU price guide values (some of them are more like...
He got his beak caught in a trap. No offense, but why would you think this is an error? What mint process would produce this effect?...
An off center coin starts to go up in premium when the design of the coin spills off the edge. If it is just a tiny little bit, such that the rim...
