Send it in for authentication. That will resolve the question, "real or not".
My Classic Head set is complete. And that means ALL Cohen varieties; that's 25 coins. But that doesn't include the 1831 proof (I don't collect...
Interesting. I've not seen that before. Things happen so fast on the presses. Just a guess but I'd say that the serial number register was still...
Also consider NCS/NGC. Conserved with NCS and slabbed with NGC. It'll cost a bit but will end up getting you more money. It might not even sell as...
Bought two Draped Bust Half Cents. 1804 Spiked Chin, C-8, R-1, PCGS AU-53 [ATTACH] [ATTACH] 1805, C-3, R-4, NGC VF-25 BN [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I bought two coins. Images tomorrow.
One problem with stamp collecting (and maybe the main one) is that the stamp issuing entities create new stamps at the drop of a hat. It's a money...
Try telling that to Scott or Stanley-Gibbons. I lucked out. I sold the lion's share of my collection when catalog values were still representative...
So I'm not the only one to have difficulties with GC's images. Looks like it's time to "rattle their cage".
If you want to see a "dying hobby", take a look at philatelics (stamp collecting). For 90% of stamps sellers are lucky if they can get 10% of...
GC's images are sometimes insufficient for my purposes. I concentrate on EAC varieties. Thus I need large, well focused and (most importantly for...
I don't expect to NEED a mask ... BUT I'll have one with me. The ol' CYA caution -- or is that CYF(ace)? I've had my 2 shots (Moderna) and the...
I'll be there Friday. I plan to arrive about 10 (opening time?) I'll stay as long as my money lasts. I'll mostly be looking for EAC items but also...
Is there a Catalog/Guide of US Trade Dollars, Varieties and Errors? Sort of the equivalent to the VAM guide for Morgan Dollars. Looking around...
Same problem. The "Image" icon doesn't work -- at least not for me. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
This is a coin for my type set. I remember it because of the toning gaps on the obverse. I guess some "contaminant" (glue, etc.) was removed but...
1877-S PCGS AU-55 Common date, but that's what you look for when buying a coin for your type set. [IMG] [IMG]
Impressive coin.
My first BIG show in 2+ years will be the Baltimore Whitman Show. It's only about 40 miles away for me. AND it's this week Thursday, Friday &...
Just two statements. I rendered no opinions. (But I should have left the "That being said" part off.)
