Ouch! Leadfoot: if I could undue what I did I would all day long. I would be very reticent to use Dellar's on any coin again. The only coins I...
RLM- are these hard to find high grade? I just saw a MS 67 go for about $300 hammer price. Couldn't believe it. That looks like a 67. Nice coin.
Yes, it was used from the 4th pic on. It was clumped up as I said so it over darkened it. I was advised after this happened, to mix Dellar's with...
That coin graded is worth more than $20- I have a 64 Rd and I think they go for about $100 at that level (too lazy to look up). Great coin. I...
Great coin. I am scared to collect these as they are so expensive and I can't afford what I currently collect. I think the longer one collects...
How would they not get the acids from your finger print on the coin? That's why they always say don't touch the face of the coin. We all have...
I don't know how to do more than 5 photos- I don't like use the hyperlinks. Anyways forgot to mention the first three photos have shiny look due...
Verdigone before and after. First pics are after NCS removed toning in attempt to remove the spots. This a follow-up to my previous post on NCS. I...
Yes Garrett, I am aware of that. I wish those people would turn in their coin descriptor so they would change the pop data. There are actually a...
Thanks guys. I know don't like TPG's Ben. I like them, but your arguements are valid. I think I am less prone to drop them, or mess with them....
When it says a "mere 4 finer" on population reports of graded coins what does that mean exactly? If you have a 64 RB graded coin and it says...
Price seems ok for me- I agree with Jim. It's a lot of time/effort on sellers part. Question is the keys. Was the 1970 S small date in there-...
This is a great post. How does Hobo know such things. Have you been hanging around Condor101- the walking encyclopedia of all things...
I agree with you Bruce- this old post got dug up by bhp3rd so I am commenting as I reread. Any coin for less than the grading fees, especially a...
Tom, I have found I like to spend more on high grade coins (holdered) say for my registry sets and also AU level coins for albums. The low end...
Thad- I was rereading these posts on "cleaning" and had been meaning to comment on this post even though it is now "old". The rubbing coin...
Dear the man12: I estimate I have bought approx $400-600 in lacquered coins, scratched some coins, over acetoned them and used clumped up Dellar's...
Thanks Thad for the info. So does that mean you get old rolls from you local bank just by asking them to go into the vault and are searching...
Tom this sounds like stuff I would have tried 6 months ago. I have learned a lot on this forum and paid some expensive mistakes. Blue Ribbon "Coin...
I have done the Elmers glue method for fun. It worked on a low value coin but I had to do it a bunch of time to get off all the grime. Haven't...
