I recall seeing someone doing a type set where every coin was also a variety.
If your motivation is a quick 10% ROI, I'll be curious how this works out for you. There are 5 of these currently up on GC and 4 on Heritage in...
I have nothing to back this up but from looking through Heritage archives I recall thinking that 2005 had higher coin prices than subsequent...
I agree that the advertising sounds too much like admiration.I have a 1936 5 mark and feel some disgust when looking at it, but feel that it...
Apparently when it's a "control test-punch", and "removed to cover the costs of the regulation labor." I also thought NGC always gave...
This is exactly what I was going to say. I don't know if the cost would be prohibitive for you for any of them in your list though. It's fun to...
I like it. Perhaps you can edit the title? (I've never tried that on here)
I've seen a few clad quarters with no copper visible on the edge over the years. Since the dates were well past 1964 and they didn't ring like...

There are quite a few AU58 on Heritage with gold CAC. Didn't see any AU58+ though. Which is funny in itself - if an AU58 gets a gold sticker, then...

Yes, it violates the Hobby Protection Act unless it has COPY stamped on it in the correct size. I'm sure the the slab violates trademark/copyright...
I bought a set of these in the early 70s for 75 cents. As a kid I was clueless about reprocessing. They toned into some crazy colors though. [ATTACH]
It’s a fake slab.
Perhaps @Jack D. Young can answer that. I've seen "silver" ones advertised on the Chinese site in the past for substantially more than the $2...
Profile says Germany. NGC also has an office in Munich.
I know what it graded because I found it on PCGS. I agree it seems low but they seem to have a different standard for proof and specimen coins.
The black dot/hole on the 5th feather down on the left was also on both seller's coins. The seller was polite in responding to me (unlike the...
And... they're both gone.
Their 1885-CC has the same look. They both have the same scratch across the eagle's breast. Run Forrest, run!
