Thanks, I looked into it too. It's odd that the label is upside down. Found another one, 1948 50c, with good slab images....
And way before the 70s. Here's an aluminum quarter from 1865. https://uspatterns.store.turbify.net/j425p497.html
Number of collectors divided by number of surviving coins = "market rarity" I guess. The higher the number, the more "market rare." My favorite...
What the heck is that purple "TraderBea" case? I've never seen that before. Is that an official PCGS case or do they crack them out and put the...
It's a scam fest on there. I searched "in cod we trust" last night and got like 5000+ results.
What did I win? A TPG job? I would be just what they're looking for. It took me less than 5 seconds to grade it correctly. One look at the...
Nah. Here's an MS68 FB. Some sort of art deco font or something. Edit: the current quarter obverse has the same issue. [ATTACH]
They are all like that.
Publicity, marketing, psychology, reputation - that sort of thing. The PCGS blurb calls it "the highest priced U.S. coin for its rarity." Like the...

Ask them why is it so cheap then? and see what entertaining story they come up with. Funny, suddenly I have to register in order to see listings...
I don't see it listed at Cuds on Coins, maybe you should submit it. https://cuds-on-coins.com/lincoln-cent-spike-heads-1950-1959/
@Cazador has about the same likes per post (lpp) as I do, at 1.76 lpp. That's the metric to use! @lordmarcovan has a whopping 2.61 lpp, but he's...
On the cost of grading, it can be done cheaper than stated. If you have 5 coins to grade, $16 each at ANACS plus $36 return shipping so $23.20 per...
I don't recall seeing any sort of template. In many cases use the reverse. Here the memorial is "level"; on Indian Head cents "one cent" is level...
The word LIBERTY needs to be level with the bottom, or perpendicular to the line you are referencing. It is not. It's rotated 5-10 degrees...
I'll just address this part - during the era when mint marks were punched into each die, small rotations of the MM were common and there was no...
I think you mean "rotated dies" and not "misaligned"? Liberty is not level in the obverse image so it's not as rotated as you think. I don't think...
They give refunds? Do you have to ship it back? These are the highest priced fakes I've seen on there. I've seen some in the $80 range that...
