If you look closely there are some lines (incused and raised) across the devices on both obv and rev, that by itself is enough to give me pause.
Yeah they expect it, but that don't mean they like it. As a collector it is your responsibility to know a fair price when you see one. And if you...
See how wide those bands are ? Morgans don't look like that, they have narrower bands. So does just about everything else. Different kind of coin,...
Thanks for the vote of confidence, after 6 straight hours on the forum today, I needed it :)
Choose something else, besides coins. Not much you can do then, safe deposit box with the coins inside Tupperware and silica gel pack may be...
Not an error guru, but Longacre IMO.
As I expected, can't see to tell in the pics. My guess, the coin has been over-dipped.
It's just a difference in the way the two TPGs label their slabs, that's all.

There is an etiquette in the coin business that collectors should follow, unwritten but it's still there. And like it or not, agree with it or...
Now, now, gotta be careful :) Yeah, maybe. But 10,000 of them would kiss your feet and sing your praises !
What kind of ice cream do you like ? Do you know what flavors others like ? Same deal with what you describe. You don't know, so leave it alone.
Tellin ya girl, you could make a lot of money with a book of those ;)
That's about the worse place you could ever put it. That's not much better. Since you apparently live in Texas I'm going to assume that you...
Yes they can. But doing so, and then trying to sell the coin without explaining exactly what you did, is considered to be highly unethical and...
That is correct. The irregularity of the wear lines in the die increase the refraction and thus decrease the reflection. But the exact same thing...
Rusty - With the exception of the matte and satin Proofs, all Proof coins have cartwheel luster. No they don't like what you see when look at a...
Separate names with a comma.
