Of course a collector was offering on it. Who wouldn't want that kind of coin? Only the '36 & '37 Buffalo proofs were made and 67 is the grade...
When I was a very young collector a coin dealer sent me a contemporary counterfeit Bust Half as a genuine coin from an ad probably run in Coin...
The advice given me in 1992 was to take it to a small town coin store and dump it. Back then gold was probably around $800/ oz. Glad I didn't do...
I should point out that also I've been shopping around for a nice Liberty $20 in part because my Aunt who used to run a Polish Kielbasa shop got a...
Around 1982 I bought a US 1909-P $10 Indian at a semi-big coin show in New Jersey. About 10 years later I was buying type coins for my US...
You photoshopped that slab to change the MS-65 to a MS63! No dealer would let something like that go in a 63 slab these days. 63's were usually...
Well this is exciting news. Somehow it seems that every US coin type [outside of foreign] that I look at is trending higher. Other than...
It may be a little hard to buy a nice ms-65 Lib for a decent price. What happens in US coins is that whenever a decently appearing coin comes out...
Thats a typical striking issue caused by the hi relief of the 1921's. That's why they lowered the relief for 1922 and subsequent years.
I collect foreign & ancients so not a Peace $ expert. Yes a few marks on the Lib but the fields are so clean is why I gave it a 65 guess. I...
I like Corel Photopaint which I've had since around 1998. About 20 years ago I had free CD copies of Adobe and Corel. I decided on Corel which...
Very nice. Also appears that they're photographed from a bank which is smart. My Mom was older and she used to call in workers for various...
That's true of many coin websites. I don't know if you had a chance to look at mine which is quite old. Also it has private registration which...
Very nice photos! I have a real problem photographing coins myself. These make your coins very attractive. Unfortunately I have a great many...
Very nice collection and writeup. I should mention that one of the only two times I attended the NYICS (1999 & 2000), I saw one dealer with...
Very nice pieces as well as photography. I agree with the other commenter here that the photos are nice without being outrageous. Also I like...
Very interesting. Maybe we should all post our solidii to see if we can hunt out any other counterfeits? I wonder what XRF would tell us of the...
Thanks very much Al. Also the page was misspelled so I corrected that as well as putting a menu item to the Tetrarchy page on my homepage. The...
That is a very nice Constantius I, the father of Constantine, Al Kowsky. Also these earlier heavier pieces are quite attractive. I guess you...
Thanks Jamesicus for your explanation of the Tetarchy and coinage of the re-invasion of Britain. By posting after you I can always find your...
