Fair warning - any more of the senseless bickering and I start handing out infractions - to all of you who are doing it.
Yes to both.
Some nice ones there Rick :thumb:
If you did, then I suspect you bought a fake. Any '21 Peace dollar, in any condition, is worth many multiples of melt and pretty much everybody on...
I agree, but then PCGS does the same thing when they are the ones grading a collection like that.
OK, on the obv, look at LIBERTY, see the dark gunk stuck in the recesses of the letters, B, E and R in particular. See the dark coloration around...
