The real question is what to do with your father. :hammer: In the future you may only want him to pick up your coins if his hands are directly...
Ah, the perils of being a coin dealer. You can lose coins to shoplifters. You can get held up at gunpoint. You can get robbed in a parking lot....
Photos would help. What you are describing could be PVC damage. But I would have expected the dealer to be able to spot PVC damage so maybe...
Latest Grey Sheet is $230/$255 (Bid/Ask). A dealer's retail price will naturally be higher. Some dealers may price them at $300. I don't know. Why...
I beat you to it!! :goofer: I started a thread about the 100 Trillion note in January. http://www.cointalk.com/forum/t46408/ Today I...
Perhaps a little anger management is in order. You will gain a lot more respect here by having reasoned discussions than by having emotional...
T$, You need to take a chill pill. Seriously. TEN replies to my post border on a temper tantrum. Like Lehigh said, your comment was ambiguous...
T$, No offense intended but have you been collecting coins very long? St Gaudens Double Eagles look exactly like the one pictured. The coins do...
This has been discussed at length here. Coin World ran an excellent series of articles (3 in December and one in January) on the Chinese...

Upon reflection maybe I read too much into the OP's above statement. I read it to mean he was looking for a 1907 Saint. Now I think he means a...
Close-up shots are OK but please post a pic of the entire coin if you can.
What you are describing may be toning. We really need to see a pic to tell you much about your coin. Was the MS-64 raw or slabbed? Grey Sheet...
The cent is not worth much today. I don't know of anything you can buy with one cent now. Not that long ago you could buy a piece of bubble gum...
Looks like strike doubling (aka, machine doubling) to me. This happens when the coin is struck (struck once) and the hammer die (in this case, the...
I don't want to put words in 900's mouth but I think he means it would be bodybagged due to the damage on the obverse. That's my opinion too.
My pocket piece is a 1994-D Kennedy Half. I have carried it since 1994. I had a pocket piece before that - a 1985 Kennedy Half (I'm not sure of...
IDK = I don't know TPG = Third party grader
I looked at your photo and could not see anything unusual. You should not clean your coins. Cleaning can damage a coin. If a coin is valuable...
My only purchase from Heritage was a $4,000 coin. I mailed them a check and they shipped the coin after the check cleared. No problem whatsoever.
