No surprise from me, either, on any of this, even the bit about European dealers still favoring raw coins. Europe has at least a 500 year history...
Do you have any links to actual cases? I’m curious how something like that ends up resolving. If a coin is legally the n private hands in another...
Sure, any of the reasons others have mentioned could be the case. It could also be that there's a question about the coin's authenticity, but it...
Funny you should mention something like this. Sometimes I like to look up attributions for random coins I see for sale unattributed. I tried...
Super cool! I was a little confused at first what the L stood for, until I looked up Septimus Severus's full name and found it was Lucius...
There are totally valid reasons to get a coin certified that have nothing to do with money, like, maybe your grandpa gave it to you or something....
Ok, since we're doing the 1944 Canadian quarter, I'll jump in. I don't know how it ranks specifically in terms of silver Canadian quarters,...
Good to be back. :-)
Ah, I see. In that case, I agree 100%. 2/5 is not what comes to mind when I look at that coin. It's nice, and would fit in many peoples'...
You're overestimating the role of fancy equipment in taking good photos. You do a better job than a majority of sellers out there.
Oh, I see. Well, when you finally get it in hand, you should definitely post your own photos of it here. It's really too bad I'm not in a...
I agree with almost all of this. It's a very nice coin, and one I would gladly own, even in a details slab. I'm pretty thumbs down on details...
Yeah, I get that. The CNC basically cut the die crack into the design, just way too deep. What I meant was the die is probably still weakened by...
@spirityoda, don't we already have 2 coins pending? I think we should wait on this a little bit. Also, isn't the submitter supposed to withhold...
I did a deal with @stldanceartist a few weeks ago that involved me sending him a coin and a check, and him sending me a coin. Both coins arrived...
I'd put that quarter in the 5 range, having been paying attention to clad toners for a little bit. I'd probably go more like 5.5 than 5.8,...
Why bother showing a completely different coin and just confusing the issue, then?
Aaaaahhhhhh! My eyes!
One of many toners I own: [ATTACH] If you ever decide that Peace Dollar needs to be rehomed, I'm pretty sure I could make room for it. ;)...
NGC assigns grades for strike and surface based on each individual coin type. So, 5/5 for your coin would not be the same level of detail as 5/5...
