These coins were never as shiny as the reprocessed coins are in the first place. They have a frosty look with subdued luster. Here is a high grade...
To a point, yes, but the mint issued enough of them so that a collector, like me, could buy one. A mintage of 1,945 is ridiculous. This will sell...
If this were real it would the numismatic find of the century because it’s not a Proof. Mint records show that 12,000 business strike were made,...
I don’t have any merchant shell cards, but I do have a few pieces issued for pre-Civil War candidates like Henry Clay and Zachary Taylor. These...
I have owned the 1763 example for more than 20 years, and I bought the SEGS piece at a major show probably 15 years ago. I have not been in the...
The term “eagle” was the name given to the $10 gold coin in the Coinage Act of 1792. It was only a small stretch to use the term “double eagle”...
If the rich guys were saving them, where are the high grade Type II $20 coins. We get high grade Type Is from ship wrecks. Not all rich guy were...
Very few. For $20, you could have bought some nice, interesting coins. In addition, in 1880, the average income was $345 a year. A $20 gold piece...
Maybe VF-25. From what I've seen, low grade of examples of the early half dimes are usually really beat-up. That's why this coin is so...
Yes, they net graded it (overgraded it in my opinion) to VF-35. It doesn't matter to me. I'm just glad to be able to fill the hole in my early...
I took the longest drive I've made in two and a half months on Thursday. My wife and I drove 75 miles each way to take treats and necessities to...
I was able to get through to your link on your eBay purchase. I don't care for the piece because it has been cleaned. Here is the type of look you...
What do you think of this one? [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Before you fall in love with it, I'll tell you that it is a counterfeit. A collector put it up...
I have had very bad experiences with these cameras and have wasted over $500 on them. The trouble is every time Microsoft updates their software,...
If it is not stamped "COPY" or "REPLICA," it's not legal to sell it. That's the Hobby Protection Act.
Here are both sides of one of the "shoot him on the spot" tokens. The American flag on the obverse is obviously part of the message. [ATTACH]...
Here is the one from my collection. It has its issues, but NGC straignt graded it. The estimated population is under 30 pieces, perhaps as low as...
The "1800 dollar" is a counterfeit that has been in "underground" collector circulation for many years. One of the ways to tell a real coin from a...
Yes, very patient. They come up, but I have only seen a few nice ones. I had a no problem EF when I was dealer that I sold. A dealer had an MS-65...
