I think I like 45, 40, 40 as the grades based off the pictures. Actually like the first one the best.
That is a beauty for sure.
Congrats on completing the gold page.
Actually kind of surprised they said rim damage - seems to me I have seen worse in non-problem holders. Still at 38 dollars nice coin.
Darn shame about the corrosion. The reverse looked really nice.
Nice pickups Kanga.
To me the coin is ag-3, to me the slight rim dings kind of hurt it. NGC would probably be G4 to G6. A really good deal at $38.
Since you same numismatic coins do this - go buy 10k in numismatic coins and 10k in mutual funds(spread it out to 3 or 4 funds in different...

OOHHH - maybe you should have a fund raising event and sell some of those bust halves? But get a number from Doug first - see what it would cost.:)
And where do you think? :)
I really like some of the old white ANAC's slabs - sometimes you get accurately grade coins pretty cheap. Some of them are good crossover coins....
Are you really sure of that? Don't worry I don't get it all either - but from the title of the thread I am really sure I don't want to know what...

Dipping done right won't hurt the coin. Some of those blast white morgans are good examples - those are still nice coins. I would not try it...
As mentioned get some books first. Maybe even some albums where you can collect from spare change - even those sets are fun to put together....
Not really enough choices - especially if you collect by variety on some of the older coins. Those of us who are not rich may have to make due...
And that is why you do not buy the sticker or the slab. I have noticed things like this on the newer stuff in the new pcgs and ngc slabs. Just...
Books and learn as already mentioned. And if you really feel the need to buy - buy something graded by NGC or PCGS.
