I have no idea on the premiums associated with the variety, but PCGS does acknowledge it. As for motive, it was mostly because I misunderstood the...
Thanks again!
That's cool about the struck through dies. :) Definitely worth holding on to.
Had you posted this in the original thread, it would have been far more useful information. I was actually thinking the coin on the right was a...
That's very impressive on the $50 a week thing. Even in Thailand, where a meal costs 50-cents at the shop outside the condo, I have trouble...
Thanks. This is the most useful information that I've taken from this thread so far, but I'm asking about s coins, not p. What is the PGG? Is it a...
I think you misinterpreted what I was attempting to communicate/convey. Your coin - the one you posted to start this thread - has may more nicks...
I enjoy this thread. I do hope it stays open. A couple of weeks ago, I sold a few ounces of silver bullion at a minor premium (2% or so). The...
It's hard to gauge your coin's condition with the tiny sliver of information provided. That said, if the majority of Lincoln's image is as nicked...
I tried posting this in the US coins forum and essentially got two responses, both of which amounted to "Don't bother submitting any Washington...
It seems that I worded my thread horribly. I was hoping to get opinions on grades, as I plan to sub coins that are MS-63 or better.

I hate weak strikes. If I didn't know it was strike, I'd say XF, but given the strike... I graded based upon color and the rims. I'd say 63 with a...
Which would you say would grade over MS62? I'm considering submission, because, according to this page, there are only two submitted:...
I don't think the marketability of the slabbed Trade Dollar would be enough to off-set the inherent risk-premium associated with submitting the...
Assistance in grading 1941s quarters I have a few coins that I'm thinking about submitting for grading, and I'd like thoughts. I'll post the...
You clearly stated in the first post of the thread that you expect premiums to start rising due to depleting inventories. The point others have...
On a "$2500" coin, that just bumped seller fees from $60 or so to $250... I would say eBay might be trying to match "industry standard" for...
Might be a case of machine doubling, Yak. Morgans seem pretty notorious for that.
Okay, so I've decided to just sign up for membership with either NGC or PCGS. I'm now on the "fence," so to speak, about what to submit to whom....
