That is simply not an accurate statement.
I agree with Mike. If you want raw NT coins, the late 50's mint sets are the way to go. If you are looking for coins older than that, I would...
Mike, I do believe I have seen that color before. NGC MS64. A bag toned Morgan that had the untoned area take this coloration. Cool! [IMG]...
Hey Ruben, Thanks for the contest which IMO was a huge success. So many interesting and creative entries. Glad to be a part of it. I took some...
Nothing wrong with a little trickery. If I put AU58 on the poll, I think I would have been figured out without looking at the coin.

That coin sucks. I really hope no CT member is bidding on that POS. I will stick with my XF 1909 Barber Quarter. [IMG] :D
Not my pics and not my coin. Anyone who wants to bid on it has 2 days left. http://coins.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=29022&Lot_No=22213...

He is about the best seller of toned coins on all of E-Bay and his prices reflect that fact. I have bought many coins from him and his photos are...
Doug, We have discussed this before. No way am I going to believe that the TPG's market grade a $20 coin to a $40 coin. If you believe it is...
The surfaces on this coin are as good as most of my MS64 Morgans. And while the luster & toning/eye appeal of this coin are not as strong as the...
Well if I do, it definitely ain't gonna be a Peace Dollar.;)
Honestly, the acid bath theory is a little suspect. It assumes that somehow the acid reacted with surface of the planchet and that compound acts...
Ask an you shall receive. However, this is a rarity. In general, I think the TPG's give very little weight to strike as an element of grade....
I think that was a deal made with NGC prior to grading. There are many BC Morgans that don't deserve a star IMO. This is one of them. I have a...
I think we have a language barrier problem here!
