Yeah, its hard to be a collector and not collect. I have tons of unattributed coins and nearly every day more come to the old mail box. I just got...
Man, with a post named, "in the interest of Halloween" I was expecting a cool post about coins from Vlad Tepis of something. :( J/K.
Or if you wanted a reference for these and most other US coins, Breen's 1988 book is a good starter for most areas. These can be tougher to locate...
I would be afraid some kid found coins their parents had put aside. Either way, great finds. Want to hear something sad? My aunt was not a...
It very well could sir. This is why I have always thought it was in Ebay's best interest to forbid pre-order auctions and only allow auctions of...
I felt that way as well. I read the word "regret" and my heart stopped for a second. It looks like normal, though, but glad to see many here got...
Dang, beat me Collector! :) 1361 should relate to Ming if that helps.
For most of their history Chinese cash did not have marks on the reverse. It wa sonly in the last couple hundred years that they had them. I would...
My quote started that thought, and I was trying to be cute commenting on how TPG are admitting that coins that used to be a 58 frequently are...

Thanks guys, but I am more confused than anything. I honestly thought I was helping the man, and anyone else who read the post. I still believe if...
Seriously, what is your problem with me X115? I posted on the other post about ASE, after you stated that you buy slabs and therefor "protected",...
Cool, the exact same way they carve emu eggs then, huh? Those eggs are darkest at the surface, but progressively lighter the deeper you go. Chris
I have no idea what the first side is supposed to be, but the second side is a poor imitation of an ancient Jewish coin. My guess is an older copy...
Have a nice day.
??? I was simply trying to say that a collector should know how to grade and identify problems regardless of whether they like slabs or not. None...
I meant you can lay out 3 1881s MS 64 Morgans PCGS slabbed coins side by side, and there can be considerable price differences for them. The whole...
Doug's post is spot on, though if you wanted to know I would think the middle coin is the most valuable, maybe $20, while the top one is maybe $8...
Good to know thank you. I will probably be traveling to SE Asia in a few months and always need to know what our newest bills are.
Sir, I would recommend then to learn how to identify cleaned, bent, environmental damage, and grading yourself. Relying on TPG is dangerous,...
