I second that motion. Bob is one of the best.
The "science" displayed by the OP here is highly questionable at best.... I suggest you read a couple of books about coins, and their...
64 is the right grade for it. This holder pre-dates the FBL designation. It looks like it has a good shot at being FBL, but a 64FBL is really...
Touring the palaces and museums in Vienna, I saw several very old cabinets, with velvet lined trays. The coins have been on display in these...
Not a huge fan of those colors, especially the reverse.
Those are attractive coins and attractive photos. The coins themselves are pretty average, with average toning - attractive, but common. Truviews...
Looks like everything pretty much crossed at par, except the proof dime. Congrats on that one!
My first reaction was the top coin was a fake. Then I saw people posting grades, and I was really confused. Now it's all clear. Both coins are...
Coneca has 6 listed, plus two OMMs. Does yours match any of these?...
So what does this variety usually sell for (without the cleaning and counterstamp)? I never understood the appeal of counterstamps, personally....
Not my cup of tea, but I guess if you like it then congrats.
7 out of 23 doesn't seem like a very good result, if you ask me. Post some pictures of the ones that passed, and post some pictures of the ones...
I am confused by this thread. But I have a silver 3 center. So I'll post it. Highest graded for the date. [IMG] [IMG]
This thread was entertaining. That is all.
That is a very attractive coin. Old-time coins like this (especially in good grades, like this one) usually spent large portions of their lives in...
There were only 10 proofs made. I STRONGLY doubt that this is one of them - the odds are not in your favor.
Yes, there is evidence of casting. However, that wasn't even what I first noticed. The coin is definitely a fake, with a large number of...
I don't know what you people are seeing/not seeing. The Blakesley effect is very clear, 180 degrees opposite the clip. I see nothing at all about...
They can tone any color. This is just a toning spot. It's not attractive.
Why on earth would you keep that? It is banged up, corroded, growing green stuff, and its worth 5 cents. Spend it.
