Was this the model for a coin, or just a portrait of him? It would be cool to see the coin, if there is one.
No TV....
Sweet vindication then, John, you were right! Looks like someone hit the jackpot, too: $1645 the first time, $4560 the second......
I use a combination of NGC's online price guide (which has census data attached - a very useful feature) and a search of Heritage's archive. PCGS...
I personally prefer to flip quarters. I find dimes to be too small to get a consistent and satisfying flip. Halves and dollars are too large and...
Well that was a fascinating read. Congrats on your newest purchase!
Question for someone more familiar with the series: Is the weakness of the lettering on the ribbon (IGWT) typical for the series/date? Is the...
If you are interested in this subject, pick up a copy of Roger Burdette's "From Mine to Mint." It discusses all of the technology the mint used...
With 32 guesses, CT called this a 65.8. PCGS and CAC called it a 66. Significantly, over 62% of graders got this one right - and at most you were...
With 33 guesses, CT called this a 63.6. NGC and CAC called it a 64. I'm actually a bit surprised by the low guesses on this one. To be fair,...

Ooh, just realized my timeslot for the NGC grading competition is 12:10, and your talk is 12:30. Going to be tight, but I think I can make it.
Wow, that is a very well done fake!
I've heard it is quite amazing. They keep showing selections from it at the Long Beach shows. I'd love to see it.
Tell us a little bit about yourself: what is your level of experience in the hobby, and what are your goals? If there is only one book that...
I personally have bought several coins which were not designated as PL. I bought them because they were PL. I paid a PL price for them. I...
I over-reacted. I shouldn't have.
These are the worst sort of fakes, because they are good enough to fool non-collectors. The Peace is more convincing than the Morgan, but if...
Haha, nothing really makes them "official." As described in the original post, I'm running a bit of an experiment, and so the "official" guess the...
I'll post the grade reveal tomorrow, to give everyone a chance to participate. There has been low turnout for this group, because of Christmas.
