The trouble is if you pay these Chinese counterfeiters anything you are feeding the beast. They deserve to lose their shirts for engaging in this...
That totally rotten "1908 Dollar" is actually rather deceptive ... if you didn't know that such things were never made.
I don't have any photos of circualted Classic Head half cents, but here are a couple of Mint State pieces that might help you see how sharply...
OOPPS I was wrong. Sorry for the mix-up. I have a 1906 and a 1908 American Silver Eagle. These great rarities were prevously unknown but have been...
Look for this one to re-appear as a “rare error coin” elsewhere on the Web. There was a troll who kept posting this stuff on another site....
The Chinese have made some junk like this. How would you like to have a 1909 American Silver Eagle? I’ve got one. :troll:
They are dumping an NGC (presumed to be graded Mint State) graded 1921 Morgan Dollar in a melt bin??? What gives?
This is an interesting game the seller is playing here. The seller pulls out the PGGS coin numbers and posts them to make seem like these...
The 1832 has been whizzed or something and then recolored. The giveaway is the mushy appearance on the obverse in the area around the face. These...
Unfortunately all of the pieces you have have been cleaned to one extent or another. 1800 - Cleaned and recolored with smoothing in the fields....
No, cleaned begins with hairlines, which result when metal is moved around with a polishing device. Absent of those, cleaned can mean polished,...
Lettered edges would be more interesting, but would cost your club a significant premium because they must be added before or after the piece is...
Sorry, post mint damage. A die clash will often show a ghosted image of the opposite side, usually in the fields.
Correction! I should have typed 1875 instead of 1876 for my mintage total of 400 in my previous post.
There is too much luster left on this dollar to grade it AU. There is a rim nick at 1k on the obverse that would lower it to AU for some. The...
Unless there are hairlines under the toning, the “cleaned” claim is bogus. BTW, I have never collected or studied Bust Half Dollars by die...
If it does not show a value, like “dol,” it’s not good. It’s only a token or souvenir. Good pass!
I am guessing that the first graded and the second one didn’t. It looks like the first one has been darkened, which helped cover up the finger...
Looks like it’s a nice coin to me. I am not a red copper fan so this color looks great to me.
Here is close to an 1804 Dollar as most any of us are ever going to get. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] And here is another one, the 1804 British Bank...
