Welllllllll - since you're old enough to actually remember when it happened - I shall defer :D edit - told ya I'd getcha ;)
Now wait a minute, numismatic premium has nothing to do with this thread. The title is "The Toning Premium". By definition that means any premium...
Yes it's an MTT Proof restrike. The obverse is white. Yes, collectors often pay outrageous premiums for attractively toned ASE's or other...
OK - here's one for ya.
Why would anyone be willing to do what ebay does for less than ebay charges ? Only one reason - to get people to use them. Funny though,...
Unfortunately green, people have been saying that since about 1915.
I have to agree.
As I have already said Mark - just because you can do it, that doesn't mean that just anybody else can. You are an exception. My comments were and...
Based on your pics it looks like both coins have light wear on the high points on both sides. I think the coins were graded accurately.
I am just amazed that some think that is a planchet defect. It has obviously been cut all the way through and then the damaged metal bent and...

Yeah, and they'd probably be making a mistake by doing so. That's an older ICG slab and with pretty much all coins pre-'64 ICG's grading is...
99 out of a 100 times that's what it is - haze. It's not grease. Yes sometimes acetone will remove it, sometimes not. The coin cleaner MS70 almost...
That and the fact that most auction houses would not even look at most of the stuff sold on ebay.
That's not rediculous Siggi - that's pretty much the standard going rate. Some houses do it for 15%, but unless they are running a special of some...
Look at Duplessy #788. You'll see that exact same R, and only on that variety.
But ebay is still the cheapest auction venue there is. No auction house is ever going to allow to sell that cheaply. I think you should count your...
No, it isn't. The boys at cgb have made an oops this time. But then so did I. I wil agree with them about the mint, the coin was struck at...
I would agree with 58.
Separate names with a comma.
