If it has a focus range minimum of 3 ft - that's NOT the one you want. A camera with a good macro feature will allow you to focus at 1/2 inch. The...
I'd go along with the VG. But get the coin weighed on an accurate scale. If it is correct, I'd get it slabbed.
I don't think it is an error. It sounds to me like a spooned coin which is after mint damage.
I gotta go along with Leadfoot - these things are buggers for me to grade :desk: I also have to agree with his grade estimate as I think they...
I'd go along with F15 if it weren't for the graffiti.
Trends used to be the title of the price guide issued once a month by Coin World. It is now called Coin Values. But Trends is also a generic name...
Based on your description, you have a milled edge coin.

Yeah, they issued gold - but not with that design. They are called escudos and come in various denominations from 1/2 to 8 escudos. THIS is what...

Oh that problem is easy to fix - just quit collecting US :D
If they are circulated, that's about it.
If you're talking about direct fit Air-Tites - 1793 half cent, 22mm - all others 23mm.
Only a guess, but I think that coin spent a long time face up in a coin cabinet. I'd say it's AU55 and likely dipped. Good rule of thumb, if...
It depends on which ones you are using - they are selling both. Those they list as being vinyl have PVC. Those they list as unplasticized,...
I agree the P coin is worth more, but the S is half the value of the O in comparable grades. And I don't know why they'd do it either - but it...
It's a simple fact, the coins of yesterday that are most valuable today are the ones that nobody collected back then. I can't think of a single...
You used flips that contain PVC - big no-no. If left alone it will literally eat the coin away - and in all likelihood it has already damaged the...
