A planchet flaw, especially one of that size, definitely qualifies as a mint error (not details!). However, they absolutely should have...
Why? Lots of people have their own custom inserts, with their branding. I see nothing wrong with that. And the 2025 cent is a coin like any other,...
Which is really funny, because there are going to be 2026 cents in the mint set this year....
If they did, I missed it. If anyone has a link to a press release, I'll read it.
I don't believe they have plans to cancel the stickers, because that is almost a completely different business. The sticker means they are willing...
It seems bad for the brand for them to slab problem coins in their regular holders. I would not have expected to see that.
This individual, under various names on various forums and in person, has shown me such incredible coins, and told so many incredible stories. He...
You two are pulling out some very esoteric, very interesting, and very expensive coins. I love it!

The British Museum owns about 8 million items. If you're a nefarious director, or even an employee with access, I'm sure it's easy to nick a few...
I remember these were all the rage when they were first discovered. I hadn't heard anyone talk about them in a long time! She's seen better...
For authenticity, mostly. Trade dollars are one of the most highly fakes coins around. I don't see any red flags on this coin, but I'd be hesitant...
Difference of opinion here, and I'll tell you why - first, I don't want to take the chance the the slabs are scratching each other by coming in...
I am 100% a collector, not a dealer at all. I don't have a good feel for ANACS, CAC, or ICG slabs, but the ideal box would be able to hold all...
This will always be one of my favorite photographs. The shadow image is the light being reflected from the prooflike surfaces onto the inside of...
Now that's what I like to see!
It was probably Gallery Mint. They usually set up a cool demonstration where they punch blanks, and then mint medals. They usually have a FUN show...
