Well you would really have to wait for an expert, but I do not think there is a way to create the natural colors a whitman could do. I think at...
Interesting thread. Never been a winner on one where the auction went unsold. Always in the past I would place a bid and forget it - I ended...
Eye protection should be used no matter which method you use. Even if you wrap it up and hit it with a hammer along the edges. The one I did a...
Which method? I forgot to mention you would want them in a sealed container. Maybe just a sealed tupperware bowl with the cents. Not sure what...
Actually with my big snips I can trim all the way around a pcgs slab. Hacksaw took longer. Usually do just one side, then use the little screw...
Take an album and get a sulfur source(matches or whatever), put it in hot direct sunlight(some place hot) - should start some browing type toning....

It is a lot of fun Amanda. The problem I have is that I only need a few varieties and I try to get them where I can. I have found the raw ones...
My last crack out: [IMG] Apply some small tools: [IMG] And into the album she goes: [IMG]

As always a great thread.
This is the one I would get if I was buying one 1913 Type I. Personally out of all of them you have posted I did not like any of them as...
Looks nice as it is, but I can't see enough of the coin to get an idea of what luster or hits maybe on the coin.
I think I like the bust half series - I believe I have around 80 of them right now. Working the album is fun.
A lot of nice ones and better than I can do.
I would have to say it depends on the coin in the holder and the grade. While the older smaller ANACS holder were much closer to PCGS/NGC I would...
