I don't have anybody I can trust who is available. My wife was busy with her 92 year old parents.
I once owned the one that came out of the Garrette Sale. It was a VF, but the TPGs refused to grade it. The OP piece is very nice for the grade.
The mint will ship the problem coins with scratches and spots that won't go into high grade holdes. I got stuck with a Douglas McArthur $5 gold...
Since we canceled our annual Christmas Orlando trip, I can't attend. I've been locked down for 10 months. There's no use blowing all of that...
VF-20 sharpness, cleaned and re-colored.

I’d say they are worth 50 cents apiece and prime candidates to be sent back to the government for re-cycling. I have never understood this “low...
I agree with all of these points, except #3. If you are a type collector, higher grades trump a better date. If I had a choice between a no...
I don’t care for either one of them because finding something better for those two dates is not that hard. Unlike large cents, half cents did not...
