I was surprised by some, not surprised by others. I agreed with some, and I disagreed with others. Overall, I agreed with the vast majority of...
"That brings up a question - do they tell the submitter why it does not get a sticker?" They told me, and they have told other collectors. To...
Many of the modern "made for collectors" coins don't do much for me. Bullion coins don't do much for me. I never really liked half dimes other...
What's going on on Lincoln's lower bustline? Rub/post mint damage? I see nothing else to be concerned about except perhaps the luster -- but...

I think everyone (except the TPGs and the submitters of non-stickered coins) would like to see this information, however I can understand why the...
OK, PCGS graded the coin MS 64. I thought this was a fairly easy coin to grade -- if you have experience with how PCGS/NGC grade these coins....
Good eye! The color in the photo is a bit more copper than the coin is in hand. Said a bit differently, the color of the coin in hand is more...
"What is your favorite Numismatic Reference Book" The Internet.
Nice coin, and looks fairly graded from the pics as well. Congrats & thanks for sharing...Mike
It looks like a combination of die wear (as Mark suggested) causing the mirrored area, and a print (which Vess suggested) causing the...
Here's a fairly easy one, IMO. Please guess the grade that PCGS assigned to this coin: [img][img] [img] [img] To make it a bit harder, and if...
