Probably because I only know of one or two California gold replicas that are actually gold. 99% of the them are gold plated lead. No I wouldn't...
I'd have to check but I think that cap and rays design would have predated Mexico's use of the Cap and Rays design. If so your title would have...
Hello Evorlor, Yes I'm the guy who collects slabs, not just every company but every holder variety from each company. I'm not the only person...
But during those ten years there were two different heads and three different reverse types. There may have also been something of a personal...
Well I don't wear a suit, mainly because I don't have one, but when I go to a show I do wear a white dress shirt and black tie, black dress slacks...
I don't think so. I think the color is not the color it actually is, and I bet the surfaces will be quite rough.
Yes fairly often. Probably the most counterfeited items are the three dollar gold and type II gold dollars, then the 16-D dime, the SVDB, Trade...
The clad layer is VERY VERY strongly attached to the copper. It is HIGHLY unlikely you'll be able peel off a layer.
Charles Barber was five years OLDER than Morgan (Barber born 1840, Morgan 1845) I'm not sure I wold call it going to war, but he did make a lot...
When the services adopted the 70 they "changed" the definition. I has to have no flaws under a 5X magnification. So if you have to go more then...
Your scale doesn't go high enough. I'm around 24,000 different pieces and that does NOT include bulk or duplicates.

No it does not. It means they could not release a later coin in the series before an earlier one. There is nothing there that forbids striking...
It's a fascination I just can't understand. I've been collecting for 38 years and I've never bought a slabbed coin for my coin collection. And I...
So buy it slabbed by ICG or ANACS or SEGS. You will pay less of a premium because it is not in a PCGS or NGC slab (even if those two would put it...
Maybe it will get them to pull them up and put on a belt rather than having them constantly falling off.
This is true if and only if I can find enough collectors who want to buy one for their collection at that premium over spot. If I've got 500...
And people who think that are wrong. The BEP prints about 9 billion dollar bills a year. This is why the naysayers believe it would take years...
There is also a large dollar sized medal that was produced at this event. Someone asked about it a couple years ago ana I spend a few days trying...
