"Self-insurance" just means "if it gets lost, I'll eat the cost and refund your cash." Most of us would rather not "self-insure" a $4k coin...
Two comments: First, Franklins weren't minted in '64. If you have a 1964, you don't have a Franklin. Second, Proofs are not labelled as FBL...
It is only available on Amazon. The link is in my signature below.
Regular first class with insurance gets expensive (and there is a top value limit, I don't remember what it is). Registered mail is probably the...
In your second post? Yes, that is clearly a DDO. If your coin matches those, then I'd say you've got it - I just can't tell from the pictures in...
The flat, shelf-like appearance is characteristic of machine doubling. That is not hub doubling.
Someone put one dime on top of another, and thwacked it smartly with a hammer. The impression from the top coin is smashed into the bottom coin,...

Very nice. I am going to call it 66 based on the small luster graze on his cheek and the mark on the neck, but that is darn close to 67. Split the...
Wow. You either need to recalibrate your monitor, or re-read the grading guides. You are *significantly* off (by 30 or more points) on at least 2...
I don't see a doubled die from your pictures. What I do see (at least, it looks like it in these pictures) is a trace of wear on the high...
Alright, good answers everyone! These are all raw, so there really isn't a right or wrong answer - but I'm glad to see everyone is in the right...
All I see is a late die state.
Whew, that token is definitely not PG!
Usually when I see that, I assume it is a problem piece. You have dealers trying to unload it, or it isn't meeting its reserve. Nice site, by...
