That's quite odd with a denomination of $350, but I believe that gold was around $300/oz at the time. I've never seen one of those coins before,...
I am asking your opinion on whether or not the famous .99999 gold coins from Canada are worth the premium they carry. My main questions are:...
Those lamination errors are cool! I personally have a 1964-D cent with a lamination that looks a bit like a big rim inside an outer rim, with the...
I've actually been in a couple of scenarios where I have sold a coin that I thought I wouldn't, but the main one is a Shield nickel that I sold...
Having only gold coins seems like a demise already. I know that there are a lot of different gold items, and some lower-priced things, but there...
That's a nice suggestion! Depending on where my table will be in the building, I could position the sign toward the front door, and use...
I am going to be a dealer at a coin show in November, and I was wondering what the best coins to take to a show would be. I have quite a few...
Looks to be an AU58, but that is hands-down the prettiest AU58 I have ever seen. If it had no wear, the thing could easily get a 65! ;) Edit:...
I haven't quite reached it yet, but I can now see why most collectors hate small coins. Like you said, vision gets blurrier with age, and for...
That 3 cent piece for $25 is quite the cool coin. I would predict that it is at least a $50 coin, but the fact that it was from a local auction is...
To find that in metal detecting is probably as rare as hitting the lottery! That is at least an AU, and even better when 1865 could be quite a...
That's a nice find! I would recommend going to Sam's Club to find more change, not only because you could find stuff like this, but also since...
It does look quite similar to a strike-through. Hopefully a close-up picture can be posted, to see whether or not the "I" goes through the sunk-in...
Yeah, now that I see it, I do agree. It was phrased..... very wrong at least. How about this: a coin struck improperly at the mint.
In 10 words or less? Here it is: a coin that was struck damaged at the mint.
I have seen on eBay where people list struck-through coins that straight grade, but I have no idea about a Morgan dollar. It appears that with...
Speaking of CACG, I finally saw one of their slabs today! It was at a local coin club auction for a 2024 MS70 ASE, and while I got outbid on it,...
I truly don't have much of an opinion on them. That also goes for CAC, but I've never seen a slab of theirs unlike NTC slabs. I wonder if the NTC...
I would never touch a hot stove for anything, to be honest. I remember that it hurt for a while when I touched one (I was about 6 at that time). I...
I am personally someone that loves uncertified coins, and often puts them in 2x2s with a grade, attempting to be quite conservative. There are...
