If you order yours today, they will not ship it until Dec 15th. However, people who ordered earlier have theirs in hand.
I think the people at ICG have enough common sense to know not to do drastic things like what happened at ANACS. With a little better marketing...
Few people pay Heritage the 10% commission. In many cases the consignor gets more than the hammer price. Example, the coin hammers for $10,000....
From sealed BOXES, yes. One box of (25) 1966 SMS contained almost all doubled die obverse Kennedy halves. Another had several without the FG...
It's fine. It's an older style holder.
If you're going to buy "sealed" sets, buy them by the box. You can find sealed boxes of sets where the original mailing tape is still sealing the...
I'm not a dealer. I just buy and sell on eBay. Lots of high grade foreign. I've also been doing bulk grading (100+ of the same coin) to get the...
I agree 100%. Which is why most of my submissions go to NGC. But, what do I know. I only submitted a few thousand coins this year.
I count 6 graded by ANACS and tey are all Net Graded - meaning they are problem coins, but uncirculated. Any unc coin with aproblem will be graded...

Actually, I'm focusing on full taler coins and I usually shy away from the samller denominations, but the look of this one just blew me away. This...
The latest cool addition to my collection: It's a 1632 Austrian 1/4 Taler minted in Hall. It's bigger than a US quarter, but smaller than a half....
You're assuming the coin was real. A lot of older books contain coin varieties that turned out to be fakes.
I've been lucky to handle a couple dozen toned proof Indians over the past few years. Almost all of them I submitted to NGC and most graded...
No. If the coin is Heavy Cameo, then submit. If just regular Cameo, consider if high grade. If no cameo, don't bother. The cost of grading is more...
Yep. All the grading services will "market grade" these coins. Not really - at least not that I know of. NGC has graded more coins than PCGS,...
All 4 of the major services will compensate you if they have overgraded a coin. However, don't expect to get paid if it is a minor overgrade. In...
I can't help you with what is written on it, but it's from Zanzibar and dated AH1299. The denomination is a Pysa. Somewhat easy to find, but they...
