Hi fellow CT'ers, My familyt and I are spending our holidays here in Massachusetts, and noticed that there is a coin show in Westford on Sunday...
Here is my second S-9. This one graded F/FV with light porosity by Bowers & Merena. Note the weakly struck "LIBERTY" on the obverse. The...
So guys, It is 5 am here in the east cost of the US, and I have been awake for 2 hours trying to fall asleep after crossing the big pond. You just...
You are absolutely correct and thanks 900. I knew when I was writing that I was omitting that step of the final grade determination: Choice,...
Thank H.T! Please explain gravel damage. I've never heard about that? So you would net grade this coin as high as Fine, maybe higher? I...

I don't know how you guys were able to do that - attribute the coin from the picture alone - my eyes don't allow that. According to Breen, that...
Lovely coins - All of them! Have you had the 1798 attributed?
Thanks. It seems to work quite well. Nice to know there is an alternative to coinarchives.
Thank guys. Yes, finding that was an absolutely incredible feeling. A nice coincidence too that it happened on my birthday, and the rulers name...
Yes, very nice coins Kanga. I see your taste in coins runs similar to mine. Nothing like the early issues.
I really can understand the sense of dissapointment Coinman must feel. I too fell victim to a similar ploy by a person who, as it seems, was a...
