Carl I don't doubt for a minute that they laughed at you when you quote those prices. But ya know what - you find one of the harder dates and get...
I'll assume that obscure can mean little known fact :D This one is liable to rile the dander of a few - nonetheless it happened. In the...
Hey Andy - did ya leave a word out there ? You said - " the edge was the rim of the coin ". I think maybe you meant to say - " the edge was...
Apparently not yet. Give it a few more days, not all members visit every day, some only stop by once a week or so. Unfortunately I do not collect...

I think his interpretation is exactly correct. Simply put - gold was worth more outside of the US because the US controlled the price of gold in...
GORGEOUS COIN !! It's easy to see why that one did the trick :thumb: And I don't even like the Barber design. I'll say the grade should go PF64...
Sometimes you do find a gold coin with a black spot - it's the result of the alloy mix. It doesn't really hurt the coin any but it can be...
The pics are a little blurry but I'd guess it will go PF65/66. You might want to save the money on slabbing fees though - even if it goes 67/68...
