Yes sellers should allow returns of Det/Gen coins, especially if he has a policy of graded coins not being returnable. That is because Det/Gen...
They're sure on the devices on those, no question. And it makes it even harder to figure out o_O
But are they solid or high end for the grade ? That is the question. I think you have to remember and ask yourself a question, why does CAC even...
Well, I was thinking that it might be because Proofs are struck with higher pressures than business strikes. But the part of the planchet the...
Could be Dick, I suppose it's entirely possible that when the lines are not as bad as they are on some coins that the strike-up could be...
I won't deny that they may be, but they certainly should not be. If the differences are astronomical, that's people over-paying for the coin. A...

The ridges are too far apart and too wide to be die polish lines, and roller marks typically do show on the devices as well as the fields, but I...
Well, I guess that's what I get for not watching more TV :) But instead spending hours, days, weeks, even months and years sometimes, researching...
LOL ! I was joking John :D I watched a guy on TV once is one of my favorite sayings. It has often been my reply when I would get complimented...
Yeah, but even with those there were 2 envelopes. The outer envelope which was addressed, stamped, and sealed, and the inner envelope that...
Well Chris as I have always said I know nothing about ancient coins. But their manufacture, the ability of the ancients to refine to very specific...
That is a question that I asked myself long ago, so I did some research to find out. In his book Natural History, published 77-79 AD, Pliny the...
Yes of course authors use previously published works as part of their source material. A quick look at the bibliography listed in any books...
