I'm sure someone knowledgeable will come along shortly, but if you want to research and see if you can identify it, try here:...
I think that's one (of many) reasons so many people were selling the hype train - if you look at inflation adjusted prices, we didn't get anywhere...
I don't think they'll sit on it for too long. They'll price it down, take a loss, and write it off on taxes. They have to keep inventory moving to...
Oh, I agree completely. I'm just trying to help answer the OP question.
I don't know about you, but I'd call dropping from $118 to $65 in the space of a week a pretty big bang. Bubbles never go out with a whimper. The...

If that is a fake, it has been thoroughly abused. As for plating, try looking inside the gouge in the obverse field, and look inside the hole. See...
I had absolutely no idea what it would go for. Even with bad pictures, I trust the NGC designation since they've seen it in-hand. This is only...
What, no Stella? Lol. This is a great looking set. I actually like the circulated classic heads, I think they look nice. I would recommend...
I'm going to play a little loose with the "around $100"... This one shipped was $77. The mirrors don't come across in the GC pics at all, but they...
I have no idea about VAMs, but I like this one at 64. Reverse is pretty clean, but a couple of those hits look deep.
