I've been waiting for a while to unload the silver proof state quarters that I used to get from the US Mint. If we ignore inflation and...
For this coin, it really does not make sense. There are lowball collectors that will pay a significant premium for the lowest straight graded...
VF 20 is my guess
You might have to call back and see if you can get another representative. The rules suggest that you should be protected from negative feedback....
Looking at Paramount, they did some of both as you can find the MS 60 and the MS 65 slabs graded MS 63 by NGC. What did they intend to do? That is...
Here are two examples I just found on eBay: 1) Paramount holder say 65 but NGC says 63 [IMG] [IMG] 2) Paramount says 65 and NGC agrees [IMG] [IMG]
Paramount can be hit or miss. They were chosen to help sell the Redfield Hoard and would put the coins in slabs saying MS 65 or MS 60. Later they...
Most Unc 1964 Kennedy halfs aren't worth grading. Even in MS 66, you can buy them for $60 or less in NGC holders. Dealers that send 100+ can get...
UPS or FedEx are your next options. Both tend to cost more. You can go on each website and they should have calculators that let you plug in what...
40% silver is only the 1965-1970 (plus 1976) Kennedy Halfs. The 1965-1967 were part of special mint sets so those are not considered "true" proof...
I agree with all of these points. The discounts happened for a reason. And like you said, there can still be a profit made on these coins but it...
@The Half Dime please let us know the grade
I only see two iterations; it happens sometimes. You can go and edit the second post to say accidental duplicate if you want.
I guess it's possible. I could see a cheap slab passing by because it does not make much sense to check but if it was an expensive coin, people...
I do now see that the edges of the slab look damaged but I still don't see why someone would switch a coin like this.
That is the only thing that I saw...so will be following along for the answer.
It would not make sense to do that since the coin in this grade is barely worth the cost of grading (it's probably a $30 coin). And if you step...
And the reveal.... ...it's MS 63 FBL....somewhat of an odd grade as I don't think the hits/marks bring it down that much, especially given the...
That's fair; there is more value to be had in other areas. Some Morgan toner prices have exploded beyond what I thought was possible.
To me, the coin that sold at GC was the weakest of the three. I would rank the other obverse toner as the top coin and the reverse toner as the...
