Personally I think the coin would be body-bagged. It has numerous slide scratches across Liberty's face & hair. While 1 or 2 might be let slide, I...
No, no coin can be wiped without leaving hairlines. And I don't care how soft the cloth is. And anyone who thinks they can do so is mistaken. Even...
Tough to do with those pics, bit out of focus, but I'd say AU58.
Yes it is. If I am the seller I either have a loss or a gain - one or the other is always accounted for.
Yes silver corrodes, even pure silver. Ordinary salt water - the ocean - will destory a silver coin. So will many other substances.
That depends, the site contains all of the information contained in the Krause catalogs. The 5 volume set of books would cost you $310. The...
I was talking about US coins and no, modern coins (defined as those struck post '64), are not included. And yes, the term cleaned does include...
Boy Howdy - now there's a name from the past !! Of course I remember you. Ashamed to say that I can't recall your real name though. If memory...

Selling coins is - every single time. Logger - if you sell the coins, there will be tax consequences. Do as Ruben suggested, talk to your...
While your intentions are admirable, that's the whole problem Dru. You go find me 1 newbie - just 1 - that doesn't want their coins to look all...
Believe it or not Joe, 90% is pretty close to accurate. Even the most conservative estimate given by the experts is 80%.
Until they do that - it will never happen.
On this we shall disagree. The 8 reales coin contained more silver than the US dollar. The first silver dollars contained .7737 oz of pure...
The Morgan appears to have been harshly cleaned. The Peace dollar has been corroded and cleaned.
I'll be a bit more direct. If you have a nickel with the date 1937 on it - it's a fake.
That's not exactly true Eduard. There are counterfeits of even the most common examples. China counterfeiters spit them out by the thousands per...
Did they ? For the past couple of years it has been costing them twice as much, or more, to make them than they get paid for them. Yes, the 1...
