Asking "Can you grade", and then limiting that question to only the difference between 69 and 70 is completely silly. I can grade coins pretty...
It's not a matter of being able to grade. Even the "infallible" TPGs can not consistently grade a coin as MS69 vs. MS70. If you don't believe...
Page 25! What beautiful wares will the US Mint create for us next? I'm sure they are hard at work. ;) [IMG]
Translation: They are ugly. :cigar:
Bring on page 24.... [IMG]
I absolutely adore Russian coins from this era, but most are way out of my price range. This looks quite lovely to me, and I especially like the...
No offense meant, but impossible for us to give you an educated reply from those (out of focus) images. I like the design though! :D
Lovely cherry-picked price data there. :D Several more have sold for under than since the "all-time high" so far you quote from Sunday, May 17th...
Sadly, this is fairly common among dealers. If they are selling, it's MS. If they are buying, it's XF. That's why you need to know your stuff! :D
@Hiddendragon that's a really cool set you picked up! I would never have thought you'd find these at a garage sale! Just for others to see, I...
They have an entire drop down menu of what they call "COINS" -- it's not rocket science man! ;)
Well, Doug, given that the US Government/Mint considers everything they create that is denominated as a "coin" then I think I'm going to go with...
$7 is nothing to be embarrassed about. People pay hundreds of dollars for beanie babies -- and other sorts of things. This hobby is yours, so...
Buy what you like, so long as you don't get fleeced in the process. As others have stated, these are not mint products and are generally frowned...
Different coins were released with the laser etching beginning in different years. There was no "transition" state of any of the coins. They are...

I lost interest in the proof sets when they moved to the hideous "laser etched" frosting process. By 2010, all proof coins were manufactured with...
It might be the other way around...
Right, so proofs are coins. And, there are LOTS of world proof coins with extremely low mintages (i.e., rare coins). I don't see where...
