You should already know what I need, it is in post #24 in this thread. Any white areas with a date/mm are coins I need. This is a registry set...
The 1943-S is interesting. It is in an older holder, but I pretty sure it would qualify for 5FS. The 1943-S IMO, is by far the most difficult...
When I find an untoned coin with eye appeal or extreme rarity, I will buy it.
The benefit I find from the NGC registry is that is not solely based on grade. Points are awarded for coins based on rarity and for eye appeal...
And thank you for including the primary reason I don't belong to the PCGS registry. NGC allows PCGS coins in their registry, no need to cross.
To further illlustrate my point, take a look at before and after photos of Island's photo compared to my photo. The first is their photo on their...
An update on my NGC registry collection. This is a very cool way to see which holes you have in your collection. It also allows you to see how...
Goldstone, While I understand your feelings on the subject, I think they are a little misguided. The swastika has been a symbol for thousands...
The only thing to say after that post is: Checkmate Fretboard. Nice Job Hontonai!
WOW, that one is good. Here is mine: Hey, you qualify for a full bust designation.

VAM is an acronym for the originators of the die Variety books for Morgan & Peace Dollars, Leroy Van Allen & George Mallis. An identified die...
What a tease. I opened this thread with so much excitement I could hardly stand still. Imagine my surprise when I saw a damaged Barber Dime when...
This is good advice. I have many years and thousands of dollars invested in toned coins and I still don't ever purchase raw rainbow toned coins....
Yeah, eating donuts, drinking coffee, maybe writing jaywalking tickets. That is what the Atlantic City police do. Nevermind there are drug...
Not that you own any problem coins, but which one do you like better, the GENUINE grade by PCGS or the details grade by NGC. I like that the NGC...
Mike, with all due respect proportional does not mean identical.
IMO, the color had nothing to do with it. The 50's and 60's Jefferson's are graded by a different standard than the early nickels by NGC. PCGS...
That nickel must be from the late 50's or early 60's, there are absolutely no steps.:smile
Don't worry about it Jack, those type of people will always find a way to squander their money. If not on coins, then somewhere else. Their...
