Can't say based on those pics Spider. But bag marks and hits won't keep a coin from being graded MS, it'll just make it a low MS. The only thing...
Elaine, tell ya what. You PM me your address and I'll buy you a Red Book and send it to you ;) All of this info and much more is in there. Yes...
Kinda tough to say, but based on that pic - low MS at best.
Sure it's possible. Mechanical doubling is caused when a die gets a bit loose in the press or there is a vibration - something moves at the end of...
Contrary to popular opinion, coins don't always go up in value. Quite often they do go down in value.
Many collectors follow the practice of buying what they can quickly find and then upgrading later. But that is a rather expensive way of going...
Sorry - missed that all important word - face. :o My point is, I suspect few collect medals because they have little value to most collectors....
I should have read the post more closely. Since there are no 1851-O dollars, other than that 1 Proof which is an anomaly, I assumed you were...

You do have the option of what auction it goes into. But if you do not specify an auction then yeah, they will hold the item until that auction...
The pic quality is fine, but I would have cropped the image to remove the holder and made the pic a bit larger.
It's more like shy than lazy. Most lurkers tend to read and try to learn. Some of them may have had bad experiences on other forums because when...
Nice coin, but I wouldn't agree with the grade on the 2x2. I'd say XF45/AU50.
Not exactly. If the '21 Peace dollar is well struck then yes I agree. But most are not well struck, most '21s are weakly struck. And several date...
I think you have answered your own question - value.
Look in Numismatic Resources, you'll find several there.
The 1851-O was a circulation strike. Did you mean something else ? :confused:
