I want to clarify something in my earlier post. The reason I sent ICG slabs to NGC was because I wanted a uniform look to my collection of...
IMHO, PCGS will not crack the market in Norway, the foreign country (albeit a small one) with which I am most familiar. NGC has, to some extent,...
@Lehigh96, I think you assumed my post was directed to you. It wasn't. It was to bring in a point of view to this discussion, namely, that one...
In my work as a tour guide in the USA, Canada and Scandinavia I've had the pleasurable duty of studying the history of lands, people, art,...
I want that. From my NextDoor Green Valley, AZ, version: a fellow named Ed Z. posted more than a dozen funnies today. My two favorites: "The...
@Richard Lee Shrader, welcome to CT. To get the best input on your cent, it would be best to start your own thread. I found out how to do it...
I think ICG gave it a "VF Details" grade. Can't imagine the gouges were allowed to pass, even being "old gold." Steve PS. Was the authenticity...
Thanks, @Insider. Yeah, I wish I still had the old counterfeit Walker and Buff that I had as a teenager. steve
Hi @jgenn, what made me realize beyond any doubt was the post of an authentic 1840 here on CT. My coin/counterfeit was laughable when compared to...
Thanks, @Burton Strauss III. I was just on, but didn't post because my ID is currently my real name, and I couldn't find a way to change it. I...
Finally into the CoinCommunity forum and looking for swamperbob. Can’t email him as I’m too new on that forum, but I’ll find a way to raise him....
Entry post. #51. My wife's birth year. @masterswimmer took mine (49):jawdrop: so I'm trusting my wife to come through for me. A train memory...
Holey moley, @Siberian Man, that's an impressive assemblage of coins! Thanks for sharing. Steve
Now I have to find time to go through the huge mess from remodeling to find my Norwegian kroner/skilling example. If you don't hear from me by...
@jgenn, appreciate the advice. I tried to get into CC but haven't visited that forum for years, so couldn't recall my user name or pw. I tried...
I agree with @fretboard; alcohol MIGHT do it. I've never had alcohol nor Goo Gone affect a coin, but there could always be a first time. Steve
I just sold some of my world coins thru Great Collections. Happy with their service and realized prices. Their head honcho posted above,...
Nice coin. I don't think acetone will touch permanent marker. Goo Gone, or something similar should. Please be careful if rubbing the surface...
Well, the auction house is willing to buy back the entire lot of 13 coins, but they won't just make an adjustment for the one rotten apple. I've...
Thanks for your graciousness, @Ryro, and again, for posting your project. Steve
