It doesn't have to be one thing and not another thing. Real estate has also gone nuts during the same approximate time period, even though it was...
0 for me as well. Right or wrong, I go with the notion that nice coins without the sticker get fewer bidders.
Seems like it's intended to be pinned to clothes or whatever.
Looking at his other listings he has an 1895-O $1 PCGS MS61 listed as "proof-like" not designated as such. An 1829 5c NGC MS64 listed as "proof",...
@justafarmer I get what you're saying but for it to be a "1901-S", both sides of the coin have to be correct. But yes, the obverse is "correct"...
The TPGs disagree. Heritage sold an 1892 PF63 4/23/2020 for $3480 and says roughly 100 exist for both 1892 and 1893, describing the 1892 as "part...
ITS/CTS? The holder reminds me of ICCS, the Canadian grading service.
Same. Don't rock the infallibility boat over there or bam!
Your poll asks "MS or AU?" but there is no MS option. Just saying.
What do they do with these? Return them to the owner? It's interesting how the RCMR article you sent me focuses on the date placement as the key...

I'd prefer they say Cleaned versus Harshly Cleaned. Then there's a couple more categories (at least) - Marked Cleaned But Really Isn't, and Not...
Yes, discussed here https://www.cointalk.com/threads/oldies-from-early-america-sell-in-auction.389707/ Grandpa kept all his coins like this too.
It's funny that they picked this one out of the lineup but completely missed the one with the wrong reverse type. The edges of both coins could...
Funny, the PR66 example, finest known, also just sold on Thanksgiving to Great Collections in a three coin private deal for $13.35 million. The...
Got it. I thought it might be a real thing, since there are other "cute" variety names and if this was a die issue there would be more of them.
Yeah I'm not clicking on a site called "moneypop". I'll take your word for it.
The upper part of the nostril is obliterated and it looks like some kind of curved square covers that whole area. Hard to see how a die crack/chip...
Separate names with a comma.
