They are not meant to circulate... they are meant to generate revenue. You'll notice many coins from places like Cook Islands, Niue, Somalia......
NGC MS-66PL. These are difficult to find in prooflike condition. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
And the whole point of my book is to give you confidence. Even if you still want the TPG opinion (very valid... they have more experience than...
Is it supposed to have the hole in it, or was that added? Sometimes the hole is part of the intended design, sometimes it isn't. Is it just me,...
I'm not sure what you are trying to ask here? Please be more specific with your question.
I got started as a child with the very most basic descriptions in the Red Book. Eventually I got Photograde, and then ANA. I now own the PCGS (for...
You are absolutely correct for a standard coin. If it is worn to the point that the date is unreadable, it is considered ungradeable (unless it is...
They don't. It is listed as "No Date". The date I gave is a best guess based on my knowledge of prooflikes.... they started to become common in...

Yes. I can't guarantee it, but I have a very high degree of probability that every raw coin "Great Southern Coin" (GSC) sells has issues.
This too was one of my dream coins. Bought it a few years ago... NGC MS-63BN: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I was lucky enough to get one a few years ago. NGC EF-40 [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
How many coins does it have to have to call it a "hoard"? 13 doesn't seem like a "hoard" to me... but I've never considered if there is an actual...
Wow, Lord... that was a great trade for a great piece! And you are right - it is big! Far more interesting than an Eagle ouncer!
The answer to your question "Can it be restored?" largely depends on what is wrong with it. If it is just a surface film, a spot of something on...
