I'd have to see the coins. Grade numbers don't mean squat to me and often I will prefer a lower graded coin to a higher one.
No, this wasn't a matter of the NGC guarantee, it was the NCS guarantee which doesn't exist. NGC never saw the coin as it was originally just...
For trying to sell it, no. For buying it because their heart was in the right place and they thought they were helping out a good cause, no. For...
Just a hunch but I don't think it's a coin. I think it's a charm.
If they are right about that 110 cubic foot figure then there is a lot of wasted space. They'll take up a lot less once you can melt them down,...

1795 S-77 These used to be considered rare but enough have come out of the woodwork that they are now down to an R-3 coin. Still an interesting...

The key word is "currently". 110 cubic feet would be an area roughly six feet wide six feet high and three feet deep. A little less than the...
A very small portion.
Beef is correct, N-13 and I would say XF-45 sharpness probably EAC net XF-40.
Boy you folks are tough. I see ONE major mark on the horses head and ONE on the Indians jawline. There are a few other minor marks. Just what...
