CBH - nice ones are always popular. They're a staple of our hobby, as a little searching always turns up eye-appealing coins. We always ask only a...
Round Rock suburb actually, but hey... It's the show that counts ! We're setting up and the show starts at 9am so you tejanos need to come by...
RLM's point is well made; it's very tough to grade from photos, and very tough to discern rub vs. Worn dies vs. poor strike on these early federal...
Mark is right on the money with O-107; easiest quick diag is star points into cap above forehead. PCGS calls this one AU55, which I think is a...
Less than one might think... the US dollar recently hit a 4-year high versus the euro.
Maybe she's just being modest. :) :rolleyes:
Hey guys, I thought this was a pretty little lass so I thought I would throw down some pics. Care to offer grade opinions and attribution, good...
Of course you did ! Everybody does. Can't understand coins without it. :rolleyes:
That's a KEY factor in this discussion; thanks, Johnny. (Emphasis mine) Yes, sometimes a coin can be ID'd by factors other than visible date....

Many submissions will truly show no change at all as they decline to mess with 'em. Apparently, they use the medical maxim "First, do no harm." A...
Scintillating ! Congrats, LD ! Truly historical. Love that lean "no stars" look. Guess I'll have to stick to the 1837 dimes and h10c...
Thanks, bro. I'm kinda glad it didn't get RB - the same coin would be more expensive. This one appears to be N-19, r.2 . There are diagnostics...
Thought I would post up a newp... slab has smudge on the back below CENT, but otherwise a decent image. I haven't attributed it. If someone would...
Absolutely ! In addition to the classic Penny Whimsy mentioned by Hobo (which covers only Early Dates), consider these : Early Dates...
IMO, not fake. Quite likely cleaned and recolored. I will say that old copper which is proof or proof-like can exhibit amazing toning. This...
NGC calls this one AU50. My spin - I tend to agree with the weak strike, E-MDS school of thought. There is a dramatic difference between...
This one shows good color, but is not a good exposure...
