Take it out of that packaging ASAP and remove the PVC. You can see liquified PVC on the $2 and $5.
Based on the pics, it looks like the coins are covered in PVC. You should remove it ASAP.
My guess is that they can spread the cost of the press for ASE over millions of coins, while for commems/special issues, the cost is spread over a...
The Mint is required to cover their costs. They're not making a ton of money on these. They're covering their costs.
Businesses adapt to survive. The Mint is in a position that they have to try and appease both sides. Like it or not, the dealers are needed by the...
Price gouging!! It's not a bottle of water in the middle of the desert. It's a collectible trinket. You act as if you're entitled to have one....
The gas station buys a gallon of gas for $2 and resells it for $2.50 and no one complains. The supermarket buys bananas for 20c and resells them...
What kind of newbie knows that there is a Denver mint, but doesn't know that they have "D" mint marks on the coin? I'm now convinced that you're...
You need a massive amount of help if you think this looks like a proof coin. Please explain, what characteristics make you think this could be a...
I believe that your problem isn't the color itself, but the inconsistency of that color. If you look at the large PCGS pic, you see a lot of white...

o_O Planchet marks are super common in the fields and rim on Ikes. Super common. Most of the marks on this coin are around the rim and in the...
The majority of the "marks" are areas where the strike didn't obliterate the marks on the planchet. This is very common on clad Ikes. It's just...
This on just arrived back from PCGS. From an original roll obtained at the mint in 1963. Common coin, insane grade. [ATTACH]
I've ordered off the site several times dating back to 2009. Never had any bad issues with the sellers, they seem honest. The only issues I've...
Hey, I was the submitter of that 1954 50P (circa 2009). Kind of hard not to notice coins from that submission when they pop up. That one was the...
Hard to tell from the pic, but most likely a mark in the planchet that wasn't obliterated when struck. Very common on clad Ikes.
The toman is very nice and looks better than AU. You got a good deal on it as it sold rather cheap. FYI, I was the underbidder.
For those people saying the coin is not an MS65, I'd love for you to defend your reasoning without pointing to what it graded in the past. Based...
If the rim marks are post mint damage, I'd fully agree that MS65 is not a worthy grade. However, I will give the benefit of the doubt to the TPG...
