Thanks. Interesting. Gives it some unique character. This gold piece is my only "toned" or "off color" coin. PCGS labeled it as "Questionable...
Verdict: Stained 1965 90% Silver dime. Weighed 2.4 at Jewelry Store, as pointed out, only 4% less than 2.5 grams 90% silver, most likely due to...
I know you are being humorous but seriously, of the 12,500 plus human illnesses, I think ours is a minor one. Therapist will suggest we try to...
Out of slab. Looks like silver on the edge, no clear clad on the edge. Still shows copperish clad beneath silver at the D. More pareidolia...
I agree. This baby is coming out of the slab today. Have to weigh it this am.

So.... I agree. Grading service selection is important for resale value. Thanks for the advice. Now, which company is the cheapest for...
Hey, baseball21. Thanks, for the info. It is FBO (for benefit of others) because I don't care about the dollar value ---- at this time. I am...
Seriously. The coin is not "worth significantly less". It cost $70 total to get the ICG slab, not a great loss to a $11,000 coin (priced on...
LOL. Nothing has to make sense in the warped world of a hobbyist. The answer here is to finesse the collection, at any cost. It will be up to...
Thanks for the interesting comments. I did not crack the slab. I set a minimum grade to match the PCGS grade. A non-slabbed coin has a higher...
