There has got to be a text resource on these silver One Yen pieces. Filing the rims sounds like PMD, just because that seems like something a...
Filing the rims is something that sounds like PMD. If you ever do find a definitive (ie, authoritative) answer to your question, like from a text...
Sounds incredibly organized! Since I don't want to reinvent the wheel, would you be willing to share just a screenshot of what your spreadsheet...
This coin's title, "The 1850 twenty dollar ms 64 DMPL" seems imply that this is some hot-stuff singular coin. And I see from this title that it...
May I ask: What the heck coin is this? "Korea"? You mean North Korea?
I am loathe to purchase from the US Mint anymore. The reason is that last time that I attempted to buy something from them (a single silver proof...
I was given an Excel file on US Mint Foreign Coins Production (produced by the US Mint) for some research I did on my S. Korean Hwan coins, which...
Nah, don't go quiet. People here really like the topic that you introduced, it's just that they really want to see what you have now that you've...
I stand corrected! I guess this is the cost of bragging rights? ...I guess I don't get it. But I do feel happy for the seller!

"DEO EST GLORIA?" (God is glorified?) Obviously this is pattern, but I've never seen this on a US coin before. Could someone give a little...
So, the Lincoln cents you thought were AU, you judge to beVF+/XF now? I'm guessing that means that your ability at grading has gotten better....
Here are some of mine. Love these British colony coppers. No brown or black spots (mostly)! Some are dated 1961, 1962, but close to the...
I'm taking a break from collecting, too. Financial reasons. I still go my local coin shows and look around, say hi, and pick up something...
Hey man, you'd better hurry up and buy that one from that ebay listing that Ed23 shared with you. Because if you don't, I will...:vamp: I...
So "Surface Preservation" means "level of surface degradation" and lack of marks and hairlines? As long as the "toning" doesn't damage the...

That Italian Lire coin really has a nice "3D" effect on the reverse (well, the side with the date and denomination, if that's reverse). The...
Look at the chart above about surface preservation. It's over 50% of the "calculation" in grading an MS coin. Look again at this crappy coin...
Amazing coins. Very well-done with the photography. Cheers!
