Agree 100%. May not be true for everyone, but my time has a price. Selling a car is similar. Instead of taking pics, writing a description, taking...
Just saw this on eBay. What does the W stand for?...
Yea, but that would take a lot of time. All of the coins are raw and many are duplicates of what I have. Too bad it can't be as easy as the...
Don't sweat it...especially for just $30. It's just part of the hobby. Every year I become a more educated collector and, in turn, a more...
Bingo. That's how I collect. I have a complete set of Washington quarters...they're all in the same safety deposit box...but they're in three...
OUCH! That is a pretty big margin.
Just curious what the dealers offer where you are at. What is the spread and what coins do they sell as 90%? The shop I buy from doesn't separate...
My great-grandmother was born in 1893. Her family was fairly wealthy and, as my grandmother tells it, she wanted a coin to wear on a necklace...

I tried a few different ways, but it isn't happening. My scanner sucks. I'm not getting any better images than the first one I posted. I can tell...
Thanks for the advice. I backlit them and put them under a bright light. Sure looks legit to me.
Yep. Agree 100%. I was thinking about a dealer doing a Morgan dollar in my example...anything silver.
Don't touch it. Unless you are an experienced collector/dealer lightly dipping an unc coin for example, in most cases the cleaning will greatly...
Any idea if this would be worth a premium? I have my doubts because the actual error is so tiny. Any advice would be great. Don't know whether to...
Looking forward to hearing the rest of those details when you get a chance. Glad to hear this had a happy ending.
Have you put a bright light behind the note yet to see through it? I use the 60w bulb in my desk lamp. I have a few notes that look great under...
I almost bought the exact same thing, FR 1173, in a PCGS holder graded at XF 40. Looked great on the front, but there was one pretty obvious fold...
Usually a one point difference, or maybe a hair more. On a day we sell at 10x, we will buy at 9x.
