Yes, these have gone up quite a bit in the years since 2004, I gather. I bought a couple of white-metal 1848 5-franc patterns in old small ANACS...
That's a beauty. Still worth grading, I would think, though the marks you mentioned might hold it down to a 61 grade or 62 at best, technically....
@sonlarson - that green peripheral toning is awesome. I say sure, if you want- go with PCGS so you get a TrueView image. Looks great. Killer...
Congrats, y'all. And @MMiller750 - thanks for the contest.
I think those are perhaps random marks that coincidentally look like "NA". They can't be that severe, or there's no way PCGS would've given this...
I bought this raw from Clark Smith, sight unseen from a stock photo of his bulk offerings. Everything went fine. [IMG]

Here is my long awaited new purchase. [ATTACH] Here is the cert page. Here is an interesting (and seemingly independent) blog post about this...

I had to develop it, believe me. There have been many periods of economic instability and downright poverty in my life (not homelessness or...
My crystal ball is a bit cloudy on that. Dunno. I suppose it is remotely conceivable that one day I might reach a point where every single coin...
Why, thankee, sir. I live for compliments like that. :happy:
Wow. Despite your honesty, that was extremely cool of him! I'd have given you a few more Lincoln rolls! A dealer friend of mine bought a box...
I do not believe letters of any alphabet should be mixed with numbers for mathematical purposes. I got mad in middle school when the letters...
WTG! Pretty durn early for a circulation find. Nice grade, too. On the rare occasions when I've found 1920s Wheaties in change, they were purty...
IHC rolls are fun.
I happen to like ramen noodles. 'Tis the staple food of hotel night auditors. (At least this one.) I also like gold. I more than like medieval...
Consider me impressed. Not only from whom you received the doctorate, but the fact of the doctorate itself. I never finished college. Maybe...
Same here. Mostly.
