I'll buy coins in CAC slabs, but I'm not paying more than any other grading service is getting for the same mint/grade. If I had something...
Just looking at Morgan Dollars, looks like NGC hasn't updated their coin values in 8 years or more? It isn't just low graded circulated coins,...
@Dafydd.......... you posted " As for TPG's, I've had a coin authenticated by a museum, including XRF analysis, condemned as fake amongst other...
There is no substitute for common sense, when pricing alone makes it unthinkable. Your friend is a novice, so he gets a pass. Neither one of those...
I too do not like the reproduced Morgans whether they are proof or not. The US mint is just producing coins as a profit center. That's not the...
I always thought holed coins were mostly to be for Mr T starter kits. I just never liked jewelry for wearing. In fact, when I first got my first...
Welcome to the Thunderdome! Attractively toned coins go for crazy premiums. I'm not of that persuasion, but look at graded auction prices....
Don't tell him what that 1903O is going to cost him. Looks like MS64 minimum.:D
Well there is toning, and then there is attractive toning. It's just like judging the grade on a woman who is about to turn the page into her mid...
I'd have to stop buying for 10 years to touch a 1893S coin in AU condition. I'm just not doing it, period.
I'll tell you what pisses me off. What good is a R rating (rarity rating for an attribution) when those ratings are so obscure and impossible to...
The ones that are really cool are the counterfeits that are cheap and actually silver. Who is the joke on at that point? :p
Everyone marches to the beat of a different drummer. You can find MS66 Morgans pretty easily with patience for less than $500, both PCGS and NGC....
They may not be "rare", but they are not cheap. Today a PCGS Gold Shield graded slab at G06 sold on the Flea for $4,150. This is why even though...
Any port in a storm for my shining inventory. ;)
I don't do live auctions. (whatever that is). But I do auctions. Ones that expire middle of week, midday, thar's gold in them hills boys, on some...
Hang tight for now. The largest naval battleship on the planet is sailing to the Persian Gulf, ours. Things could get interesting.:eek:
A couple of weeks ago, one of my favorite sellers on the flea had 2 rolls of proof silver Rosies up for auction. Separate auctions. I watched, but...
Mr Meanie! You deflowered him! :p:D I'm still smirking about plucking a raw coin from a trinket site on the flea that PCGS later graded MS67 and...
