As I indicated in the "What am I doing wrong in photographing my coins?" thread, I was having difficulty imaging a VF-30 1806 Half Cent. (I am not...
I'm very aware of the charges on HA auctions (Stack's too). Therefore I don't bid there. (Of course it helps that most of their items are more...
I've got the books but I likely can't ID that variety. Not enough detail for me to work with. I'm still pretty much an EAC rookie. My problem is...
I'm heavy into early copper and am finding my images are not as good as they used to be. Lighting seems to be my current problem. Getting coin...
Nice coin. I'm concentrating on Early Copper so THAT'S the sort of coin I'm after. BUT Because of prices I'm currently limiting myself to 1800 or...
Not bad. I'll have to think about them. Right now I'm reorganizing my currency set and haven't firmed up how I'd like it to end up.
My wife doesn't give me numismatic gifts anymore. She gave me a 1971 Brown Box Ike back then (50 years ago!) and hasn't been able to stop me from...

XF Details. I think you can skip the "Proof or possible Cameo" possibilities.
That mark isn't on mine but that doesn't mean much. I could have a different variety. BTW what's your source determining varieties? Are there...
The $5 is a star note. BUT The $2 isn't, plus the reverse is out of focus.
The US grades by one set of standards. The rest of the world does it -- um -- differently. Using non-US grading standards what would you grade...
I'm more suspicious of the 1873. There's a large "feature" to the left of the date and a very small "feature" to the right. That coin would have...
Agreed, particularly on the "overpriced" part.
All my reasonable offers on eBay have been refused. On the other hand I've refused offers on my items. But considering my selling % my selling...
Is it authenticated? I see what appears to be extraneous marks on both sides of the date.
I didn't buy this because I found it eye appealing. I bought it because it is a Rarity 5+. I cherrypicked it raw from eBay. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
64/65 I'm just not a fan of toning like that.
