I've been organizing my Capped Bust Half Dimes, ID'ing the die marriages and putting them in new 2x2's. At the same time I'm searching the auction...
I was looking for a particular coin variety slabbed either PCGS or NGC. I found one listed by a CDN Member. He had personally added the variety...
I've had my eye on this show for quite a while. IMO there's a strong chance that it'll be a "go". And I noticed one thing -- no Sunday session. I...
I just got the latest Coin World Weekly and that's what their front page says.
I thought I had a complete 2¢ set. But in the Red Book there are two dated 1865 but you'd only know that if you read the footnote. This is the one...
I just finished imaging all my slabbed Capped Bust half dimes. I have 30+ of them. The pictures mostly appear to be ... soft, i.e., not quite in...
I've found a coin listed on eBay that I've been looking for. It's in an OGH graded MS-61. BUT it has a gold CAC sticker on it. Based on what I...
1830 Half Dime. What is the "dimple" below the ear and towards the back of the jaw. My Opinion: It's a centering mark. But I've never seen one...
Here's one of my half dimes that I ID'ed as LM-11 (Logan/McClaskey). The only reason I'm posting it is because IF I have ID'ed it correctly it's a...
I have been working on a Capped Bust Dime set by LM variety (die marriage) for pushing 10 years. A full set is 122 die marriages. My criteria are:...
Got this one from Heritage. 1832 Half Cent, C-1. It doesn't have as much red in it as the images show. That leaves me with only two more to get to...
I think in my 60+ years of collecting I may(?) have owned one token. But since I've been hard at work trying to complete my Classic Head half cent...
I've got two references on Capped Bust half dimes (1829-1837). -- The United States Half Dimes by D.W. Valentine -- Federal Half Dimes 1792-1837...
I have a silver Roosevelt dime set (1946-1964) that I'd like to get a quick idea of its value. They are all slabbed MS-66 by either PCGS or NGC....
Got an 1826 Classic Head in the mail today. It's a Cohen 2 (C-2). One step closer to completing the set by Cohen variety. The set has 24...
Lighting is very important when photographing coins. Too much and you end up overexposed which washes out details. Too little and you end up...
THE GOOD: So I and many others have LOTS of time to do things since we're sequestered at home. Plenty of time to list things for sale,...
This is the reason I asked about the guide books to large cents. I've got it ID'ed as 37-7 from Wright's book. The die crack on the reverse...
I've got three books that cover some of these coins: -- U.S. Cents 1840-1857 by Grellman -- The Cent Book 1816-1839 by Wright -- United States...
They say good things come in 3's. This is my third recently purchased coin, and for me it's good. Once again I have to ID the Cohen variety....
