I have collecting the 12 caesars. I need to be able to read the name on the piece. That has eliminated a lot of off-center strikes and pieces with...
It is not a Proof, and I don't think that it is a Proof-like.
When I was dealer, I could make money by getting raw coins graded and by cracking out coins that I thought were under graded. The fees have gone...
