Agree 100% --since the grade and value are so tightly linked (more so than they ought to be, I do agree with moneyer12 on that) the grade really...
When, in addition to heavy fog, there is also what appears to be a shish-ka-bob skewer going through the guy's beard; why then yes, a PF61 indeed....
Could not agree more. In fact I wouldn't bring money to the second meeting either unless it was in the lobby of a police station. Nothing...
I've got some nice looking MS62 coins in my collection. Is this one as nice as the AU58 that I posted of the 5000 Reis? Nope, but it's still...
I suppose I could send it back in, but what's the point? The coin pretty much speaks for itself. Cost? About half of what it would be were it...
Not me. In fact if I had bought it sight unseen as a generic date MS62 it would get returned to the seller, even if the coin were a better date,...
Agree, the obverse fields on the 58 are nothing short of sensational. A few trivial marks on the cheek... The reverse isn't quite as nice, but the...
Let's pretend they both have the same price tag, --and in fact they are pretty close anyway-- which of these two coins would you rather own?? Same...
Very interesting, almost appear to be some sort of promotional slab or something like that.
1812, a cataclysmically bad year for Napoleon Bonaparte. (40 Franc struck in Paris while Napoleon's army was being destroyed by the Russians)....
Louis Napoleon, nice looking MS63. Very tough grade for the issue. [ATTACH][ATTACH]
Louis XIV aka The Sun King, struck the first year he ruled without a regent at the age of 14. [ATTACH][ATTACH]
,,..and then at the other extreme, check this one out... Then at the other extreme, check this one out. MS64?? They've got to be kidding!! At...

Those are two of my favorite crowns, not just from Poland, but from anywhere. The complete abscence of legends on the obverse provide for a truly...
As a type, these early Lira coins with the obverse border inside the legends are much more scarce than the later 1915-1917 coins without the...
It's a restrike according to Northeast, which means it was probably struck not 100 years ago, but probably about the time Get Smart was talking...
Would you believe this coin resides inside a PCGS PF68 holder? I'm not sure how to set-up those little grade survey things, maybe someone can...
Unless you can get a 3rd party grading service to slab it as an overdate, the coin essentially doesn't exist even if you have one in your had...
