The tpg's have been very tough on toned coins lately, imo because the coin doctors have become so good. Perfectly NT coins have been rejected,...
Just wear a hazmat suit, Jack! Does that stuff work on swine flu??
I like the look of your coin.... it obviously changed hands a LOT in the old West. I think this one would pair nicely with it, in terms of wear...
Where's that %&#$ popcorn emoticon??
Hi, Stefanie. I collect them as a sideline to my US type set and "mini-series'" I just have a few, here are a couple, you have probably seen...
Great thread, I tried to nominate it but was unable to do so. Looks like a system glitch of some sort.

It looks like the real deal, an incredible find. Do you see anything about it that merits conservation? It looks original to me. Most of them have...
Did you see the MS63 Fugio he has?? (insert droolycon here)
Last one to sell on HA went for $4,025. (non-CAC) That was in March. I don't think $4,500 would be out of the question. Numismedia lists an AU58...
