Before the existence of CAC, I bought a sharp 1904 $20 in an older PCI green label MS62 holder, for 400 bucks (this was around melt price, in the...
Ah, good! Well phrased. Just don’t go swappin’ those syllables around! ;)
To use a rather low budget example of that, I always liked the VG8 to F12 spread on Barber halves, when I was doing those in a Dansco. I looked...
I seldom to never use Greysheet myself, and will typically use two or three online references (Numismedia a lot), and on rare occasions will pull...
Just please don’t tell me what the guy who runs a bait shop is. You know, the fella whose expertise in different kinds of baits is so advanced,...
Why use NGC priceguide for comparison on a PCGS coin? I mean, nothin' wrong with that, I suppose, but I'm just curious.

I've encountered dozens in bulk lots, but nothing I've added to my primary collection.
Yeah, the ones I found in that uncleaned lot were the "bee and stag" type.
Not unless it finds a buyer. If, as you say, there's a chance that it could grade out professionally at less than 55, it doesn't sound like much...
Not quite as ancient (I don't have any of the little "bee" bronzes anymore), but following along with the "Ephesus" theme... [IMG] [MEDIA]
Neat. I once got several of them in an uncleaned bronze lot.
PCGS didn't use the same kind of plastic back in 1857, so those older holders tend to look rather scruffy. ;)
Here's another one. Hey, @SensibleSal66 - this one wouldn't break the bank! I paid 12 bucks for it. It's hard to see in the photos, but the...
