Honestly, most of those aren't worth conserving in my opinion. And several of those that I looked at are damaged and ungradeable - and not because...
There's more to proper storage than just the coin holder, but that is the start. In a nutshell, coins need to be stored in a sealed container -...
It would not be graded. As said, it would put in a Details slab or a Genuine slab.
Take your shot, may get lucky. Me, I would of sold it to the guy offering $500 so fast it would make your head spin.
I believe they would, yes. That first one especially would be bagged even if it wasn't toned. The 2nd probably would too.
They certainly are on Heritage. But I can also understand why more than a few dealers would have them priced higher. For one thing many dealers...
Just curious, but what makes you think it's a contemporary counterfeit ? I think such a mistake would be much more likely to have been made by a...

OK, fair enough. But it seems to me that anybody that had a bunch of gold coins in storage, and they needed money - the first place they'd go...
Dates and mints your asking about would be more useful, but around $100 seems to be the going rate for more than a few in 65.
It's an edge view holder, they've had 'em for quite a while now.
Sure it'll help. But it won't help you know what you are looking at and whether the coins are worth the asking price or not.

Well being in the cedar closet wasn't exactly a good idea. Cedar puts off more gasses than just about any wood. And those gasses are not good for...
