Not sure myself - reread the original post and your post. So I missed it too. :) All of my collectors coins are worth at least 5x face. :)
As mentioned get books on the series. I like the red book on IHC's by rick snow. For large cents I have newcomb, sheldon Penny Whimsy and...
Sweet pickups. Very nice indeed.
Here is how you figure out if it is a good deal - you like the coin and you like the price. Simple as that. I think that NGC price is a little...
Well - can't really say, but you did not offend me and I read most of the posts. :)The I got tired of the back and forth - that happens with a lot...
Don't forget lowball sets.
I won't attempt it. Too much corrosion - this is one for Marshall or someone or one of the other real experts. But for $3 a coin hard to go wrong...

OCD is a curse with this hobby. :) I hate coins that the obverse does not look correct. :) Never thought about telling NGC to put it inside....
Well - I think I would have started it at VF and netted at F-12 for what look like scratches. As for cleaning - possible, I just worry about the...
Never had a problem myself - with any of the labels at heritage. And the cheap ones do the same thing - even the little circle ones. Still -...
Doug is correct - and in some cases you might even get less than 50% depending on what it is. The only quick way is with a local dealer - and as...
Yep - waiting for one to show up now. Mainly PCG, NGC, NCS and Anacs - those are about the only ones I buy. Mainly bust halves, liberty nickels...
