You have a run-of-the-mill 1922 Peace dollar. For whatever reason, I can't see the first two pictures, but the third is from the "B1" reverse...
62. Some fairly large marks on the face and the strike make me think 92-O before I saw the reverse.
While they are a credible TPG, in general, they don't stack up to the others. Of course, as with any grading service, you'll find really nice...
A Peace dollar set is no less complete omitting the Dan Carr overstrike fantasies than it is by omitting the Mel Wacks Begin/Sadat/Carter...
Colonials. There's a lot of nuance in these that seems to make the learning curve much steeper than for other series. Climb that curve, however,...
Several levels of fiasco. The first couple days of sales was a complete circus unbecoming of this hobby, and included big security concerns at...
I assume the VDB is fine (it looks fine, although a little weakly struck), and concerns about it are borne from an optical illusion provided by...
Great album!
92-S half VF30 93-S Half VF20 95-S $1 VF25 Nice coins!
Treat these coins as raw when buying. Some raw coins are accurately graded by their sellers, some rather optimistically graded. You have to know...
If you're looking for the cheapest way to get something certified by PCGS or NGC, piggyback onto someone's bulk order. The problem, of course, is...
Not milk spots, but hazy toning developing. "Milk spots" look like water drop stains, with clearly defined edges and white interior.
Colorado Springs has a show during the weekend between the two weeks of the ANA Summer Seminar, June 26-28. There'll be lots of coin people...
That's one for a Dansco set. I can't tell how the luster looks from the pictures, but my gut is telling me 64. Spend the grading fees on an album.
First Strike™, Early Release™, and First Day mean that someone paid extra for a label, thereby subsidizing the rest of the TPG's services
Looks like a 63 for the 83-CC and maybe 64-65 for the 82-CC. Don't use Plast-X on GSA holders. The plastic is too soft and it will hairline....
This is definitely a consideration. I don't have many modern commems anymore, probably just the 2008 Bald Eagle series, but the packaging is...
One from my "5 required coins" list and my prime number set: [IMG]
First time I saw a FE cent I was probably 9. I thought it was so weird that a coin wouldn't have a "tails" design on both sides.
Which is why the SSDC "meat and greet" at the 2018 ANA show will be held at Fogo de Chão. We're going to try and get a table in George Morgan's...
