In hand, it's definitely toned, and not unattractively so. I've purchased Franklins sight seen with similar toning. I don't think this toning is...
I buy almost all my coins in person, or from online dealers I trust. This one was an exception. I've gotten lucky with exceptions before, for...
Anybody have any comments about the weird luster? You can see hints of it in both photos, as a roughly oval-shaped halo around the portrait on...
This is most likely what I will do. The show I'm going to is kind of small, so it's unlikely I'll find a nicer toner there, but, after Saturday,...
In my quest to find a toned walker for my 20th century type set, I came across a nice one on eBay: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Silly me didn't check PCGS's...
Newp from the 'bay. Sellers pics as it hasn't arrived yet.[ATTACH] [ATTACH] I have hopes this one might rival @WingedLiberty's "half dollar type...

You don't need to break US mint proof set holders to get the coins out. Check along the edge; there should be a seam. You might be able to open...
Uhh, yeah. :P I'd go AU, because even an MS64 would be like 5 years worth of my coin budget. :-)
Meh, for collecting purposes, I'd pass on both a Nic-a-date'ed key and a dateless nickel. I'd much rather save up for a key with a readable date.
This is patently false, according to PCGS at http://www.pcgs.com/News/Indian-Head-Quarter-Eagles-King-Of-The-Counterfeit-Gold-Coin . According to...

Why not try a hacksaw?
Problem-free, common date, uncirculated Roosevelt dimes? Probably a couple bucks apiece.
