They did. The SLH was $120, while the sixpence was offered for $50. I told them that they had better take the auction off eBay quickly or they...
Yeah, you blew it! These strange transactions have happened one after another this week. Now eBay wants a file added to a return. I had no idea...
I've had some strange eBay transactions lately. For example, I purchased this coin. [ATTACH] And the seller sent me this coin. [ATTACH]
Umm, there were no Morgan dollars struck in 1922 or 1923. The Morgan dollar looks fake, and if it's dated 1922 or 1923, it is fake.
One step closer to set completion, though it needs to be crossed to PCGS or CACG. I prefer nice, lower grade coins for the '79-'90 run of low...
Two 1856-Os. CACG XF45 [ATTACH] XF40+ recently purchased raw off eBay. A BIN for a very reasonable price. [ATTACH]
Two more upgrades. Both dates have been difficult to find. I grabbed these but may look for some better examples down the road. 1872 ANACS XF45...
Same here! 18 years. That should be MY COIN! I am so envious! This date is driving me nuts. Sadly, all I have is this hole filler that most...
Here's a coin purchased with zero regard for the holder or the esthetics of the coin. I have to find out who catalogued this coin and recognized...
It is a great place to cherry pick rare die marriages and Redbook varieties. Almost all of my seated half collection came off eBay, mostly as raw...
The raw XF40 1856-O WB-17 just arrived, and it is excellent, having light, peripheral orange and blue rim toning that doesn't show above or in my...
1865 PCGS VF30 CAC - my wallet suffered mightily to win this one. It's an improvement over the PCGS VF25 1865 I purchased recently that has too...
John Milton, your Trade dollars are a tough act to follow. CACG XF45 - an anti-circ-cameo (photo by GFRC). [ATTACH]
Every now and then, I pick up a nice, raw coin off eBay for well below retail. This is from "The Happy Coin" on eBay. I've gotten other nice...
Those weak Ss and minute- and micro-Ss on some dates fool a lot of people. I know of someone who scored an 1873-S on a coin marked "1873,"...
Another "investment" I made was spending some time learning how to recognize 1855/54 overdates, particularly in blurry photos. I had already...
Over $100? Really? I sold this G6 for $90 two years ago. What do you think it is worth today? Edited to add - Good grief, I already posted...
I did that when I submitted the coin. I also added my unpublished notes on arrow position relative to the date which easily separates the two DMs...
I have one SLH that needs to have the attribution corrected. I don't know if the proper attribution, in this case, 1874 WB-5 SLH, will prompt...
To this excellent list, I'd add Wiley and Bugert 1993, "The Complete Guide to Liberty Seated Half dollars," which is available on the Newman...
