Are you sure he didn’t mean AU55, the grade I’d give it with cleaning - def. a sell at 55 Euros
OK, I have been looking at some Guyana uncirculated coins from the Franklin Mint era 1976-1980. Krause has the following information: As with...
Double strike/flipover strike. Graded Proof66 by PCGS.
Should be 22k or .916. The reverse looks good if blurry, the obverse has either a fingerprint or a whipe across cheek and mouth of Lizzy. If...
OK, here are a couple. Check your colour control (or something), esp. for the second coin: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
R Yes thanks, that was gotten from an old dealer years ago.
Here is one of those big ole bad boys....GTG at PCGS...[ATTACH][ATTACH]
Former mint "slave" buyer, now mostly reformed....A definite pass on an uninspired coin that they are trying to salvage with comic "trickeration".
Wow, I really like the 1888, the eagle and surrounding fields are lovely. Admittedly not my series, but very, very nice. Unfortunate stereotype...
Actually these were bullion coins that saw heavy circulation and very few survived. So initial mintage probably does not reflect especially the...
This is a coin that has little respect, nor does its larger sovereign brother although both are rare in higher grades. Gold from the London mint...
Yes indeed, perfectly legal and something to behold. They were ahead of their time and much of the engraving on both these and many others was...
Thanks for posting, there are really so very many. I have to think of what my favorite actually is. Perhaps I will post tomorrow to add.
Which, the 1983 Spanish language or the 1983 8 coin? I have looked, to no avail, for the 1984 8 coin set. The 1985 only came in 8 coin format,...
Yes indeed, but here is the full listing, and they did say San Francisco, not Philly, and also mentioned that the proof 1Bs were not from...
Numista has been wrong on some of the Franklin mint issues, that is for sure. My comment was as to the unlikeliness of the RCM striking the lone...
Here are the pictures of the 1983FM set with Spanish Box and card labelling - I have seen this on some of the gold issues, but not the sets. The...
I included the matte 1975FM 20 Balboa as in my experience this is the rarest of all 20 Balboa coins in any format. Krause notes that many matte...
I'm not always sure about the facts on Numista - that seems a bit unlikely to have the Balboa coin struck elsewhere. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
I'll dig out some pictures. The three largest denominations were 0.925 silver through 1979, and then went to 0.500 in 1980. In 1982, some of the...
Separate names with a comma.
