Sometimes you find a coin that you just find irresistible. This coin is one of those coins for me. It is not the most extravagantly toned or a...
OK Leadfoot, that will be enough of that. No slamming the photos in a tribute thread. I promise you that every coin that I ever purchased from...
This thread is part 3 in my tribute to Anaconda Rare Coins. Anaconda offered some of the finest rainbow toned coins in existence. In addition,...
I almost bought this coin from Anaconda last year but I passed. NGC PF67 [IMG]
I will have to disagree. I didn't say toning, I said VIBRANT rainbow toning and I was speaking of business strikes only. Your avatar looks like...
I never understood why it is acceptable to apply a chemical to remove toning but not acceptable to apply a chemical to induce toning. Seems very...
OMG, you have a rainbow toned 1912-S Liberty Head Nickel. I can't rank the other coins since I didn't even see them. I guess I don't need to...
As an NGC registry participant, I agree 100%. Plus no koolaid!
PQ=Premium Quality. The NGC star designation only applies to eye appeal and has no relation to whether or not the coin is PQ. The CAC sticker...
Are you a coin doctor or a toning hater? Either way I love that coin. Very pretty despite the bag marks and I give it a solid MS63 maybe 64 if...
No reason to feel bad as you will be bidding on the wrong coin. BTW, it is at $1500 with Buyers premium and still has not met reserve price....
This is a no brainer. The best way to complete a type set is get the best possible grade for the cheapest price. This usually means that you are...
The color progression is right (yellow-magenta-cyan) but the coin overall displays both elements of AT and NT. Although the color progression is...
Toning on both sides is not really an indicator of NT or AT. This coin is an example from the appalachian hoard. These nickels are widely...
I like the colors especially on the reverse but the soft strike and the muted luster will keep this coin at an MS63 (No Star). Nicely Toned...
I want to know what everyone thinks about this coin. Does it deserve a star designation or not. If you have any comments/reasons why they would...
Is that MS66 wearing a watch?
I like to use the My Collection feature on Heritage's website. It is a little difficult to navigate but it allows you to group in as many...
I buy $50 (price guide) coins and pay between $200-$1,000 for them. Most of my other coins are for my registry set and are well, they are more...
I gave it an MS65 but I can see it getting an MS64 from the slab photo. It appears from that photo that the luster is a little subdued from the...
