I'd wonder what chemicals are in that cabinet (or the house) doing this and what they might do over the next few years. It might not be so pretty...
I stopped buying proofs from the mint many years ago when I received one with grease smudges on some of the coins. I returned it and received a...
Hard to say what somebody else gave it, depending on whether they'd had their coffee quota or not, but to me it looks MS-64.
I really don't like the toning (I never like toning), and it makes it hard to see details, but I'd say MS-64, maybe 65.

Very nice! I bought my first two fractionals back about 1961 or 1962. I still have them. This is one of them:[ATTACH] [ATTACH] I have the set...

It would be a sad note to remember some loved one with those tombstone years. Still, I'd guess there is someone out there who would want it, but...
My apologies. I was trying to say the coin is damaged, but say it in a funny way. When a third party grading service grades a damaged coin they...
1989-P, but I'm afraid you'd only get a details grade.
I don't really trust it either, but it is more convenient. I do make multiple encrypted back-ups and once or twice a year drop a flash drive into...
Excel, plus gradually building a file of photos. CT got me into that so I could post, but I am woefully short of picturing all of even my better...
It's all a matter of semantics. "Authentic" here is defined as, "vaguely resembling the real thing at least on one side."
My problem is that, with the rise in gold prices, I cannot afford to buy either one anymore! Given the choice, I'd rather have something with a...
Great find!!
