They told me a few years ago that it was because "they just can't attend all the shows everywhere". Seems kind of stupid to not attend when your...
Two recent purchases for my collection: [IMG] Circa 1720-S.B.F. Switzerland Beromeunster 1/2 Taler NGC MS65PL. Struck to commemorate the 1000th...
I truly appreciate people like you who have nice coins and sell them without slabbing them first. If it wasn't for people like you, I wouldn't...
I wouldn't call the haze heavy. It appears to be light on the obverse and light-to-medium on the reverse. Given that the coin is graded DCAM and...
So a coin with nearly flawless surfaces, but some light haze should grade only PR61? Haze should only knock 1-2 points off a grade max.
Picked this up raw at the NYINC show. Just mind blowing condition for this type coin. These heavily circulated and to find one in this condition,...
A Mexico Revolutionary coin from the state of Oaxaca. While a large percentage of the coins from Oaxaca are common, the rectangle coins (1c & 3c)...
For these in typical condition or this insane condition? Typical condition you can get these for $300 in low proof to $500 in gem. For grades...
Three extremely different, somewhat recent purchases for my diverse personal collection. [IMG] 1624 Germany Hohenlohe-Neuenstein-Neuenstein...
I deal in high grade world coins with my largest section being German coins. I can say confidently that I have slabbed and sold more top pop...
For some unknown reason, I've got quite a few rare Luxembourg items. [IMG] A 1946 John the Blind 100F in Proof. While common in mint state,...
Regular tier dealer fees are around 5% lower than the Elite Membership. For a very short period of time some services were actually slightly...
The initial 5% offer would not be for high value items. It'd be for a much smaller consignment. People who have these high value coins know that...
Moderate to most companies would likely be a $15K-$50K consignment. Other factors like the type of coins and whether you will be placing a reserve...
There is no reason at all why a seller would pay the full 15% sellers fee when there is also a 15% buyers fee. The only sellers that would pay...
In theory, it is what the auction company collects to sell the item. In reality, it is just a way for bidders to lose track of exactly how much...
This just came back from PCGS: [IMG] I didn't check the Pop Report, but I suspect this is the only non-modern German coin to ever grade MS69.
A few of my Boston ANA purchases. [img] 1680 Germany Harz Baptism Taler. Large planchet. [img] 1730 Germany Harz Baptism Taler....
I'm both a PCGS & NGC dealer. I'll submit them for you for the published grading cost + actual S&H.
PCGS pays 50c. ICG gives a grading credit of $2 for a classic insert and $1 for a modern. NGC & ANACS pay nothing. The pop reports are inaccurate...
