As you guys have pointed out, the 1846 10C is FAR scarcer than the dime of 1844. As a matter of fact there are 24 1844's available in Ebay...
H.T, I am a bit confused now: are we talking about two coins: one which you have now confimed as 39.1, and the other on its way to PCGS/Heritage...
This was my 'took a gamble' highlight: an 1796 Large Cent listing with only an obverse picture which was pretty small and dark, and which I had to...
That is an interesting remark. L.D, I know this is a very general question, but from your perpespective as a dealer, which would you say are the...
Nice coin Regandon, and also a concise and interesting history of the city. The area of what is now Frankfurt site was settled by the romans in...
Beautiful! Is that the C-2 lettered edge? Congratulations!
Gene, That is not my area of the country, but this Auction House also keeps an extensive stock of ancient coins, and they are located only 15...
That is my experience as well. Not that I have attended that many shows in the US, but from what I have been able to appreciate there are more...
Ok, so now we know where you been........ CONGRATULATIONS!!! to own the second known specimen of any coin is fantastic, more so if it bis a...

That is a very nice Fugio Mark - quite pleasing for a first Fugio coin. You finally succumbed to Fugio fever! Those are amongs the most...
I agree with Mark's attribution: that is an S-290. Everything matches with the picture and description in the Breen book. Took another close...
Most of my collection came from Stacks and Bowers and Merena (when QDB was still leading the firm). I was largely satisfied with the coins I got,...
My opinion is F15 to VF20, and very pretty, with what appear to be smooth surfaces and nice colour from the pictures.
I like Dougs explanation. It makes sense. Dipped/cleaned coins, when left exposed to the atmosphere over weeks/months, will often start to tone...
Frank, now that you mention it, you are right: I bought a 1795 Flowing Hair Dollar from B&M in 1987 and it turned out to have been cleaned as...
I am looking for an 1807 Capped Bust myself, but I would not buy that one for the same reasons everybody else is mentioning: the toning (or lack...
Treashunt, I hope "Darkside" is also OK? As many have pointed out, it is really difficult to chose the coins (or coins) which I like most out...
That Chile coin is nice. I am still missing one in my collection. Keep an eye out for coins from Chile, specially the earlier issues are scarce...
