Yeah that makes no sense.
I think the obverse is beautiful. It reminds me of the paneling in my room growing up. The reverse, not so much.
Pretty obvious fake without even knowing there are only 16-20 known and it's a 6-figue coin.
I'll try it and see. I'm usually looking up certs from images so I have to memorize part of the number then flip to a cert lookup tab, back and...
I'm in the die gouge camp. It wasn't deep enough to impact Monticello, which appear to be struck normally. Something to look for, if I ever get...
Depends on how you view a "dent." In my state if I took the cash option, I'd net $345,196,980. I'd still have plenty left for my 10 mansions and...

I'll take the previously undocumented 1804 dollar being auctioned with Stack's in December. (I need it for my type set if I ever start a type...
I bet somebody scanned a $20 and fed $1 in to print it on. Value is $1 but I'm not sure if a merchant would take it if they notice that it's...
Double wow.
Just judging from photos on the internet, honestly in that last photo I could have said AU as well, from the amount of rub/scrapes in the field...
Well, they already give big dealers special access, so I guess this is just sliding further down that slippery slope. Not that I would buy...
I also received that email and it seems rather objectionable to me. If these are national treasures worthy of being stored at Fort Knox for 25...
Most of them don't seem any worse than a lot I get in change, but I suppose if they're all like that, they might complain. I typically have about...
Man, another switcheroo already. Barbers get no love. :(
Thanks, that's kind of what I figured.
Well, OK, but it's ebay. The biggest perpetrator of numismatic nonsense there is.
That's funny, my birthday was today and my daughter is in Greece and asked what to get me. I said an inexpensive ancient coin, but retracted the...
