Enough ! I do not want to have to remove any more posts.
Even better. Then have the jeweler weigh it for you, and that's all you need. The weight of the coin is known, so you merely need to add the...
I love the way you keep adding to my collection of very scarce pictures of numismatic items :thumb: That reminds me, I still have about a million...
You don't need an appraiser. Take it to a jeweler and find out if the bezel is gold or not. That's the only additional thing you need to know. The...
Welllll, that's because they were picked up by the guys in the black helicopters and temporarily removed until after the public left :D

Your asking of that question is exactly why they do it ;)
Excellent post Charmy :thumb:

Eduard, I'm not seeing a mint mark on this coin. Did you post the wrong pic perhaps ? edit - with or without the mm, I'd say you did quite well.
If you had read his previous posts Paul, you would understand.
I am wearing my Mod hat here. I have cleaned up this thread and removed all off topic posts. And Ruben - enough ! Your antics are getting really...
Maybe, but maybe not. I will grant you that the TPGs will often bump a coin with strong luster. But then the TPGs are also known to bump the...
Nope. No I would not. With slabbed coins, if you are unhappy with them then sell them and buy another that you are happy with. With original...
Ruben, the MS70 he's talking about is a coin cleaner.
To be honest with you your coins would have just as much chance of being downgraded as they would have of being upgraded. Or, they may cross, with...
