Yeah Denver seemed to be having QA issues. Fortunately I got 2/3 70s but the ratio of 69 to 70 is much higher for the D mintmark. It’s funny...
Yeah thankfully I never even opened the plastic capsule before sending to PCGS or it probably would’ve broken off. The good news is I found...
Yup it’s one of the greatest things about collecting. Everyone has a different interest and style. No 2 collections are exactly the same. I’ll be...
Thank you so much for explaining that! I learned a lot! :) I’m surprised stuff like that makes it through quality control. It makes me wonder...

Oooh I managed to get the 2022 Somali Elephant Proof! [ATTACH] I’m surprised it also had a mintage of only 500. I would expect it to be like...
No First Strike means the coin was delivered within 30 days of initial release. For PCGS the cutoff date was November 18th so if these coins were...
Daniel (owner of Portsmouth Coins) once told me: “A problem coin is a problem to get rid of.” I trust him so I try not to buy problem coins...
