You are very, very seriously over-estimating. The coin mag with the largest subscription base there is is Coin World, and they only have 100,000...
What makes you think they were original bank rolls ? And please don't tell me you think they were unsearched. edit - I guess I should qualify...
Alex a time is important especially given the situation wre are currently in. We have just come off the first bull market we've had in 20 years...
Some do and some don't, it's purely hit and miss because they don't always have them. Specifically, what rolls is that you want ? If you want...
Absolutely no attitude, just a response to your comments about what can already be done and a straightforward question.
Mark if you think the coin is genuine then can you please explain the things I pointed out ? I'm more than willing to listen.
The TPG's don't see it that way. Even the ANA standards say - "To qualify as MS65 a coin must have a fairly sharp strike but not necessarily a...
Do you you really think that a single auction containing what was considered the finest collection out there to be indicative of the entire series...
To a large degree yes. They will grade the coins as 69 with the spots. PCGS even used the reasoning for many years that they would not grade ASE's...
To prevent milk spots ? It's of no use whatsoever. To prevent toning, it works like a champ ;)

Same price guide there is for gradable coins - the Heritage archives.
Well, then either PCGS really dropped the ball IMO or you got a fake coin in a fake slab. I suspect the latter. Let's look at a few things on...
No one can tell you with absolute certainty what the cause of milk spots is. But it is generally believed that it is the washing process the mint...
Unless you wish to do so for legal/tax reasons, I see no reason to do so. Of course that's assuming that you followed the law every time you sold...
That's a big "if" at this point. I too am skeptical of the coin.
I mean that the process described in that book and elsewhere on the internet is not the same process I am talking about. Sprue is just a fancy...
I'll check the books, but that isn't even a coin. It's a shooting medal. Far, far different from an ordinary 1873 4 ducat. The 1873 4 ducat has...
I can't offer much based on those pics. Can you post larger pics ?
