They go for $1 to $5 per roll on eBay, but if you sell a 25¢ roll they go for $8 to $17. Now if that makes any sense to you, please explain it to...
562,949,953,000,000:1 if it were to happen naturally. Somehow I would be willing to bet that that roll has been searched.
That last bit is the kicker, though. From what I have seen, I would be hard pressed to pick out a counterfeit slab.
There is nothing at all wrong with finding out at the dealers counter. Most are honest and willing to help.
From what I can make out; The VDB makes me suspicious. You need a picture straight on for me to tell for sure. The "S" appears to have been...
It looks to me like a coin that has seen some acid. Whatever the cause, that is not a true matte finished coin. Value = 25¢. BTW, jello, what...
If you are holding you camera in hand, you need to brace it with something. The only thing that even tells me that is a Lincoln is your post.
I cannot make out enough of the VDB to say it is real, but I cannot pick up anything to tell me is is fake. I guess that translates to a...
Everyone was too low, but Hull, you were the closest. It went for $455. I wonder if mine would go for as much. I have had people tell me it...
I will tell you what I did (or better threatened to do because he then changed his mind) to a seller who refused to combine shipping. I was going...
I am not too sure just what that will prove unless he comes up with something weird. If you are right, the staple has ferrous sulfide on it. If...

Using Heritage's numbers, in 6/06 there were 47 MS67 1958- Lincolns certified by NGC and 17 by PCGS. In 9/09 NGC had 69 and PCGS 19. However, as...
Most people call it toning although some consider it corrosion. That one is dark enough it is probably getting close to corrosion. If you are...
I wonder if teh other 1983 proof set he sold had the same error. I would think if he bought 2 at the same time, there would be a good chance they...
This is the day-after-tomorrow!
How about glue either from the staples (most likely by my guess) or from the 2 X 2 to attach the mylar. It is quite common for glue to contain...
Not at all disagreeing with you that the toning is caused by the staples, but what do you think is causing it? You have a chemistry background....
Use staples. Pliers will flatten them or they make staples that put the staples in flat. Tape has all kinds of chemicals in it that you have no...
I have yet to see one of the cents, but my first thought when I read that was "thank God"! That picture does not enthrall me much. I was hoping...
