Very wise decision. The biggest advice I'll give is: don't worry about taking a loss. It will count as a tax write-off, and your collection will...
That is artificial toning and highly unattractive, but at $10 I guess you can't go too wrong.
The Hibernia is cool. Morgans bore me, and I'm not going to comment on a coin that isn't yours.
I see you use the term romaion. I actually just asked about that in another thread. Could you please pay a visit here and answer a question for...
I am glad you are happy about your coin. Personally, I just can't get excited about a coin with a hole, but that is my preference.
While reading, there seems to be some debate over which term to use. So, which do you prefer, and why? Romaion, or Byzantine?

PR-6*.... It is really, really hard to judge proofs from pictures when they are good pictures. And those aren't good pictures for grading. They...
Assuming you paid the figure written on the label (which is about the right price for this coin if it were still in it's slab), the cost to...
Two Feathers occurs on a number of different years. It is from overpolished/overused dies. It is the exact same effect that produced the "no AW"...
That is not a coin.
This actually just happened to me today! A few days ago, I ordered volumes IV and V of the Ancient Coin Collecting series. I saw that Wayne Sales...
It's always sad when something like this happens. I've been spending more time over here because NGC, and the NGC forums, are doing a great...
Well, that certainly doesn't help my apiphobia. I definitely won't be buying any of those!
Who is this person, and why is she on coins? Are her coins scarce? What is special about your coins (not trying to be a smartass - I really know...
Guessing pl from pictures is really difficult. The surface clearly has some reflectivity, but there is no way to really tell if it is enough for...
This one was hard for a beginner like me. I didn't do very well.
My first reaction was 20 and 35. When I saw your reveal, I was surprised. That top one is severely overgraded. And CAC'd too? For shame. I've...
