The story of these is really cool... but the design of the eagle with the snake is flipping awesome.
It probably thought it was an 1895-O because it found that image in the Heritage auction archives and they identified it as an 1895-O. You've...
The website mentions cell-phone pictures... does it have to be? Are there limits on the size of the upload and size of the finished picture? Can I...
Thanks for that. That is actually really interesting - several years ago, I was doing something similar with photoshop. I'd take the best pieces...
Blackberry - can you show us the individual images it used to make one of those composites? I'm wondering how much editing/stitching/altering its...
I like the color of that coin. I'd top out the grade at VF-30 max, but I'd probably like it better at 25. You got a good deal on it, but...
Interesting theory. I noticed the obverse nicks you mentioned, but didn't consider that they could be related. However, the rim nicks correspond...
I've got a couple of ideas, and I'm not ready to say PMD just yet. Do you have an accurate scale that can weigh to fractions of a gram? Give us...
I believe that CompuGrade was way ahead of it's time, but I liked the idea. Realistically, advances in imaging software can make it a trivial task...
I'll be honest, I personally did not recognize the key. But I do think it is cool how so many countries/regions can instantly be identified by a...
That actually sounds like a great double feature. I'll bet there is a lot of overlap in the Venn diagram of "Coin collectors" and "people...
Ah, yes, of course. This $100k coin is much easier to get than that other $100k coin. haha, I'm teasing, of course. Your '92 half disme is one of...
Excellent book, and absolutely well worth a read. I love that - in order to promote the new mint's coinage - he spent these at inns and...
Where was this show? Was this the one in Camden? I saw a couple of emails from the SCNA about it, but it was too far of a drive for me.
If you define the set as when it was strictly a French colony, there are a little over 40 coins. This period goes from 1912 - 1956, and it is a...
Nice! I once started a set of French Colonial coins (Africa included, of course). At the time, the scope was just too large (every coin from every...
Keep in mind that I only have these images to go by. In hand it might look totally different. I think the problem with sending to CAC is the eye...
I said 15 and I'm sticking with it. It's just such a rare grade that the graders often don't even consider it. Kinda like how 20 and 30 are fairly...
53? Wow, there must be something going on with the coin I can't see in the images.
Are CAC coins selling for more because they have a CAC sticker, or do they have a CAC sticker because they are premium for the grade and would...
