Exactly my first thought also. I like it, although I generally prefer mine a little darker.
Yup. Really frustrating since I wanted to start my Christmas shopping this weekend.
Unfortunately, my first reaction was also AT.
Let's play a hypothetical: Assume for a minute that you were in the market for one of these. You stumble upon this listing on Ebay - a 1955 NGC...
Last time I impulse bought something, I came home with this:
I primarily collect Franklins. My favorite coins in that series are the ones that are the hardest to find well struck, but which I happen to own...
The answer is: in all likelihood - no. Unless it is nicely toned (original, natural toning) it is not worth much, and chances are your dime is...
New rolls are, in general, not a very good way to find double dies. What you really want is Lincoln cent rolls from the 60's and 70's - they are...

What is the coin and can we see pictures? If its an old white slab, ANACS will likely not do anything. If its a new ANACS slab - don't buy new...

That's awesome. Sounds kinda like my 1951 Franklin DDR-005, which I discovered. As far as I know, only one other has been found. (see the strong...
BNB... I find your posts condescending, rude, obnoxious, and otherwise belligerent. Furthermore, when you post a thread you do not own it. You...
Rare and valuable are not the same. Many beginners get the two confused. I have some Franklin FBLs of which there are only 30 or so, but not worth...
Yes, $4 over spot is high. $2 is more reasonable - although with enough searching you can find someone willing to pay any price.
Yes, you overpaid quite a bit for them. I would expect common date, low grade UNC Morgans (what we call widgets) to sell for less than $30. I...
