Here's mine, probably an MS-63. That hit on the nose might be a bit too much for choice. Bought raw in an airtite for $25. Nice little purchase....
Sorry to be off topic but is this thread like, User posts a picture of a nice toned coin and other user try to guess the price paid or come close?...
I vote fake as well. The details look too mushy and there's some questionable marks. There's like a rough field around the mintmark so it may have...
I saved the inside that holds the coin and I have the label that states the grade for PROOF. Not the outside plastic itself. Here's the original...
Just received the coin, it's in a plastic flip with a label saying ''1913 1c, NOT ENCAPSULATED PVC''. It has a small piece of paper mentioning NCS...
I have a $5 Gold piece already and $580 sounds fair for one. But I've taken big interest in old Proof cents (including Matte Proofs). After I get...
I am going to a coin show next weekend, I'll see if I can get an expert in to remove the stuff. I have an account at NGC so I can summit to NCS...
I most likely not dip the coin in acetone. Its a little too risky, if I do that, I'd take it to an expert. But I may just store it in an airtite....
Its good to hear that I am not alone, as I do not know how to spot pvc damage. If I knew, I probably would've left it in the slab since I know...
It hasn't taught me any lesson. I hit me in one minute, I never knew or even expected it to have any kind of pvc because IT WAS IN A SLAB BEFORE....
Do you understand the term ''MATTE PROOF''? The coin in business strike is not rare, however, Proof pieces are pretty rare. With only 2,983 minted...
I am almost 98% sure I got burned. Because it said Something/imaged/shipped on the status. I checked, and they don't even slab coins with pvc or...
I am very upset about this. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that it said "PVC" under grade. Not only $580, but another $50 wasted because...
It wouldn't be nearly as bad with a 1917-D dime but with my most expensive coin in my collection at $580.....well....that's a completely different...
It would've made no difference. I believe the old holder is to blame. Besides the point, why would Heritage even auction a pvc-damaged coin? I can...
It was in an old ANACS white slab and graded as PF-63 BN. Here's the coin before I removed it and sent it off. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]...
Aloha everyone. I have just checked the grading status on my MPL that I summited about 2 weeks ago. When I got down to details, they listed a...
Finally 2011! Little late since I was at a surfing event to kick off the new year, placed 4th.
Aloha everyone? How's 2011! Hawaii is 6 hours behind almost all of the mainland, so it's still 2010 here!
Happy New Year everyone and all on CT! Happy collecting!
