Doug, If you don't care that the person you are dealing with believes you and your response is intended to benefit the others who are reading...
And I thought poker players were superstitious.
My advice to you is never to look at a rainbow toned MS67 early Jefferson Nickel. If you think the coins in this thread look really cool, seeing...
I know we have like 3 separate debates going right now and I hate to start a fourth but feel compelled to ask you a question. Where did you get...
It is important to remember that color is not the only component to the toning premium. Color + Luster = Eye appeal. The more eye appeal, the...
True, but I don't think it is a contest to which aspect is more important. Some collectors hold strike paramount, others are all about eye...
I certainly did and have no worries, the Full Band designation on the Mercury Dime series is very strong and will never die. In order for me to...

One of my recent pickups in the 2011 FUN Sale was an upgrade to my 1940 Jefferson Nickel Short set. I decided to re-image the set and update this...
And what prompted the public to suddenly stop accepting over grading, all of a sudden? Fine, I will expect that you not engage in anymore...
Seller's photos are always pretty decent, but they come with a free glass of juice! [img]
I think that coin actually goes beyond market grading an AU coin to MS. I bet PCGS would chomp at the bit to get that thing out of that holder....
I grade the coin low end MS65. The marks on the neck that would cause some others to limit the grade to MS64, but Liberty's cheek is very clean,...
Okay, here is a rainbow toned full step Jefferson Nickel from a no reserve E-Bay auction last month. [img] PCGS Price Guide is $35 for MS65...
The coin is an MS65 graded in either 1988 or 1989 based upon the fact that it resides in an NGC generation 3 holder. [img] The 1923-D that I...
