The article was poorly written. When read, I thought a small number, not 2 were sold to "special" friends of mint. I then read the act, Public...
Guess I'm being told to write a report and that gets title change, so, here goes:
As I said, I looked into this when seeing coin in friends shoe box. I will pass this info on to him, I also think he should put it on Ebay as he...
Getting good answers. Most Charlotte coins have very bad finish. As to the note, NGC said "cannot be graded as it appears coin was apparently...
Here are 2 photos of s $5 Coronet I sent to NGC, returned with note but no grade. I don't know how I missed it but upon return I did see the...

Still confused about cleaned coin. Conserved just muddies water :(
I had guessed 63 and 64. It brings up a point that has bothered me. Red book gives a rough outline for moderns but nothing on these older...
Well it happens. Here is a 999 UHR I got from mint. I find the color beautiful. Many won't buy it, some will. Doesn't matter as it's not for...
Thanks, as I thought. Can't believe either NGC or NCS and their recommendation, although when I told NGC that I was keeping coin Raw, they were...
That was my thought, I only asked NGC how they treated copper spotting. As to Red Book, yes, I use it along with the PCGS Coin Grading and...
[ATTACH] spot is above the W. Geez, tried basic uploader, couldn't get pic to take, thought too large. So, I kept reducing and finally tried...
