Howdy yoda3001 - Welcome to the Forum !! If I may, I would suggest that you do not worry too much about having the coins for your son's...
I don't know about being able to find everything about anything - seems like I can NEVER find what I want to find for me :( But thanks for the...
Why would you want to sell it ? The 1919 penny you mentioned in your other post is likely worth, at the most, 1 dollar perhaps 2. And that is if...
You would have to send your coin to one of the grading companies like NGC, PCGS, ANACS etc etc. They can easily be found by using any internet...
It would depend entirely on who wanted to purchase such a coin and how badly they wanted it. But I would be very surprised if anyone would pay...
Learning to grade initially is not that difficult - do what has already been suggested. What takes time is becoming good at it. Skill in...
With the popular modern commems, once the price has stabilized, it rarely changes much. At least this has been the case for the past 25 yrs or so....

The '48-S was weakly struck to begin with - so that is not what limits the grade. But it does appear to me that the coins does have some wear. I...

Now that makes more sense. It doesn't change anything regarding the coin being fake - that it is a given based on the legends. But it does help...
I think you answered your own question. They use the metal precisley because it is cheaper.
To be honest I don't know. What I do know is that not all soft plastic has PVC in it. ZipLocks and baggies are soft - and they contain 0 PVC....
It will protect you from criminal prosecution - but it won't protect you from loss. You buy a stolen coin and it is discovered - they take the...
I kinda think in this instance it means that a pic of the coin was used on one of the plates of the catalog.
It sounds to me like your set on PCGS - so go for it.
Well sure enough it's a fake. The correct diameter should be 21mm. But I don't understand the weight being what it is if the coin is only half the...
Howdy Poruchik - Welcome to the Forum !! I must admit - that's a new one on me. Based on what you say I agree it is a fake. As such it may have...
Boy !! You must buy different books than me. I consider myself lucky if I can find one of the books I need for under $150 :( And they're not...
