Broke: 70 point grading scale Woke: 100 point grading scale Even woker: 1000 (?) point grading scale? Overall an informative thread. You can...
My guess is XF45. Nice coin regardless of the grade.
Very nice pickup! Something interesting about this date is that the reverse die was used to strike all of the $2.5 gold quarter eagles for 1805,...
I have three medals with ships/boats on them. Here’s the launching medal for the USS Nautilus, the first nuclear powered vessel (technically a...
I’m not entirely sure why it’s considered a SCD, since this is my first experience with the concept. The website in the link below appears to list...
USS Enterprise Medal Another new addition to my “Nuclear Navy” collection: the USS Enterprise (CVN-65) christening medal. This medal was...
Starting a Daniel Carr thread on this forum is like starting a CAC thread on the PCGS forum... both of which are akin to tossing a lit flare into...
Disclaimer: I do not own either of these coins and both images are PCGS TrueViews. Maybe someday I’ll own one! Some of my favorite varieties are...

I know that ASEs are prone to spotting, but that’s pretty bad when they come pre-spotted right out of the mint. Hopefully the second time is the...
Next time that person asks for an attribution, I’d just give them a link to a listing for the appropriate reference book and encourage them to buy...
Westinghouse/Bettis Atomic Power Laboratory Medal Here’s the newest addition to my “Nuclear Navy” collection, a Westinghouse/Bettis Atomic Power...
That would definitely be an interesting piece to own! I’ve heard of a similar off center coin clock design where a coin that’s off center in the 1...
There’s no shame in collecting lower graded coins (at least I hope not, since I collect a lot of lower graded coins). I try to hold out for an...
I remember the OP coin from an older thread. It’s a scary one!
I recommend getting a copy of it. Each year, they feature a new series/denomination (like half cents/large cents, nickels, dimes, etc.). Unless...
I have some coins on my list that I’m keeping an eye out for, so my first purchase of the new year will likely be the first one of these that...
