Merc -- 63 -- I'm thinking that hit on the lower left of the fasces, which at first just looked like a leaf, is too big to go much higher in an...
Looks like the dreaded HAZE to me...!
AAAAHHHHHH!! It's like when you look through a peep-hole and someone has their eye pressed against the other side...
I kind of think it's turned the corner and is heading straight at us, in our lane.
Selling a double eagle for $1? Me, neither. $1200? Now we're getting fuzzy. Leaving aside the ethical issues, backing out on an auction is likely...
No, it's an 1885-P -- he (and I) misread the slab as 1885-S $1, not the actual 1885 S$1 ("silver dollar"). The $1200 eagles are still not the...
Mine weren't. The Washington, Roosevelt and Kennedy were uncirculated, although certainly not gem; the Franklin, Walker and Jefferson were worn,...
Yep, that's just like the one I got. For $40, you win. :) (And if he bought it any time prior to the last month or so, he probably wins, too!)
I couldn't agree more -- there are lots of things that you can't check from a single angle of lighting or viewing, luster being the most obvious....
I meant no offense. I apologize for letting you take it. :) I'm still seeing this buffalo as a VF35 at the very least, based on comparing its...
Hah, I fell for the old "NGC slab usability failure" -- I read "1885 S[ilver]$1" as "1885-S $1". Glad I didn't fall with my wallet open. :) But...

If you can see any detail at all on the halves, they're worth more than that -- Coinflation's quote for halves at Friday's closing price is...
They set off warnings, but this guy is passing some of my diagnostics -- each auction has a legit and distinct photo, there's a plausible...
...and while I was typing that, he let another $5 gold go for $141. :headbang:
I see an 1885-S MS64 right at $700, which is what he's asking. I suspect someone got these coins as part of a lot, an inheritance, or a theft,...
2007 graded(ms69) Eagle gold coin -- $50 denomination $1200 BIN! Check his completed auctions -- he sold several comparably underpriced...
I don't know what to think. Thieves have been having families since long before Wall Street was first surveyed; not being able to feed your...
I'm looking at the apparent texture on the shoulders and haunches of the buffalo. It's a bad picture, but I think a good shot might even show a...
I think you need new glasses. :) The photo is blurry and a little dark, so it's hard to tell, but it looks to me like that Buffalo could be XF....
