Frightening. "In London, his house at 36 Craven Street, which is the only surviving former residence of Franklin, was first marked with a blue...
I don't know the diagnostics on these but just a casual observation - to me it looks like someone mushed the D in an effort to turn it into a No D.
Nice. I get the feeling that some of these can only display it on a screen. Either that or people haven't figured out how to do that. Which is why...
Yes, if coins of a particular series go up say 10%, the key dates logically do the same. You just net more from 10% of a $10k coin than 10% of a...
Do these USB or whatever microscopes not have the ability to save a native image that can then be posted somewhere? I'm curious, because this...
Which stock should you buy? Well, the one I already own, of course.
It's just truth in advertising. They're letting you know that you're flushing your money.
Good news! Did they give you a sense of value or didn't you raise the topic? Harlan Berk brings back memories - the first coins I ever purchased...
No expert, but looking at the TrueView https://www.pcgs.com/cert/43686087 MS63 seems fair. There's a lot of tiny chatter in the fields. Might get...
For what it's worth I don't see anything wrong with either cent. PCGS auction results on the 1931-S don't show much of a spread between VF30 and...

Owning a plate coin would be special @Publius2 . The closest I come is this 1903-S dime from the McCloskey collection. He wrote about his...
And they're going to have to keep a table of old and new numbers so they can connect the customers to their history. Which means they can still...
Lots of fun coins! The 1877-S T$1 caught my eye for the circcam and lack of chopmarks. Which one is your favorite?
Weird. They could keep all the old numbers and just add two digits to their database for when they go above a million. Maybe there's some other...
(Oh no, here goes kbbpll and their dimes again) OK, this time I'll just bore you with the two obverse and three reverse types in the year they...
I feel bad for being Debbie Downer.
I have doubts about the trade dollar as well. The folds in her gown don't match real examples and it appears to have a Type 1 reverse.
I agree, the 1946 is under-appreciated.
If you do an image search, it's being sold on a number of sites including the Chinese one, some sort of novelty "hobo nickel" I guess.
