My holy grail is a rather common coin, 1881-S Morgan MS68, but it is not really common at all. However, it is attainable if it ever hits the...
Something about that coin that I cant put my finger on just looks off to me.
Are you sure that is possible? :goofer:
In this particular case, I think your position is correct. After all, the Walker is in an AU58 slab and it still brought MS63 money. It would...
An uncertified uncirculated 1893 Barber Half Dollar is a $500 coin minimum. If the coin is an MS64, it jumps up $1,000 in price. Whenever I see...
Jack is right on, AU64 is a conceptual grade not an actual grade. However, there are AU58 coins residing in both NGC and PCGS MS64 Holders....
This is embarrassing because I did it after you started this thread. I found the following auction on Heritage and immediately recognized the...
The University I attended and the year I graduated. My other online screen name is ACPitBoss, which I use for poker sites. I was afraid if I...
The last time I tipped an attractive woman, I can promise you I wasn't in a bank. Although, nude attractive bank tellers would make it easier....
Or at the very least, find a Saint with a CAC sticker. You don't want to be shelling out multiple thousands on sight unseen coins in a series...
Good point Spock. Unfortunately, I will need some of your gold coins for my thesis research to determine what level of impurities cause gold to...
Thanks guys and don't forget to nominate your favorite thread this week.;) BTW, I forgot to mention one thing. Many of the AU64 sliders are very...
I can't believe I am about to write this. The general consensus is that the coin should be left alone because dipping it might make it less eye...
Well at least I have an idea for a thesis if I ever get fired from my job and decide to pursue a PHD in metallurgy.
GD, I have a degree in metallurgy and I am going to have to agree with Spock on this one. Pure gold will not form an oxide layer under normal...
If it was toned, I would buy it.;)
Most coin collectors have real problems when it comes to the key date/s of the series they are collecting. Perhaps the Washington Quarter...
I feel your pain. I was a loyal customer of Anaconda, so you know I will pay big premiums for toned coins, but NFC's prices are too high even for...
That has to be it. The 1928 is actually worth slabbing in any grade. However, I just found this F2 IGC 1928 and it looks much better than the...
This is the last circulated whisker cheek that I could find in Heritage's archives and it only sold for $65, so I don't think that was the reason....
Separate names with a comma.
