Or a larger set of Dan Carr work. He has a lot more out there than just overstruck fantasy coins.
I don't think a set without the fantasy pieces is "less complete," but I do think at least the 64 makes a cool side addition. If I could ever...
How do you even find estate sales with coins? That's my question.
Agree with the 50/50 consensus, but I'd say if only one grades clean, it's likely to be the half.
IMO, if the price of these sets drops significantly, it'll be the dollar dragging it down. Proof commem silver dollars never do well, and this...
That reminds me of the basement slab Ike I recently purchased. I honestly don't remember the grading company offhand, but the grade on the label...
Cool. I started when I was around 9, too. I never lost interest, but I had to cash out and take a fairly long break.
Allow me to ask a really ignorant question: is this "repatination" thing really considered acceptable? And what about what they did to that medal...
I agree. My initial impression was that it was one fugly Morgan, but the coin itself didn't scream "fake." I really need to up my authentication...

It is. That's why posting about a VF coin with luster is noteworthy. Typically, almost all the luster is gone by the time the coin wears down to...
This from PCGS Coinfacts: === The 1890-O Morgan Silver Dollar is common in Uncirculated condition but Gems are scarce. Part of the reason for...
Speaking of rare, check this out: [ATTACH] === Description from the site: An original set of six Bay Bridge commems which include their...
You're right. I read about how error coins get out a while ago. My recollection is a little fuzzy, but I seem to remember they used to come from...
Clearly, you have the very rare "dot under F" variety.
And do a GTG. :-)
Well, depending on the luster, I'd say it's an easy MS65, possibly MS66. Eye appeal and surfaces are both excellent, the obverse looks virtually...
Well, the picture doesn't scream "cleaned" to me, but if it's an accurate representation of the coin in hand, then that's fine. The toning does...
Would you believe I was looking at the coin and not the holder? :-)
