The main reason he's not willing to part it out probably has a lot to do with his "$5000 coin" which "is worth $5000 in MS-60 condition." You...
I don't see how this is a bad thing. It just means that foreign PCGS graded coins will appear in the catalogue, right?
You posted a thread asking for suggestions, and 100% of the actual respondents said "George V." You interpret that to mean, obviously, you should...
Oh, and Tim, my opinion is that you should pay for the auction if you're going to start a thread by saying you paid $37 for the coin.
Honestly, I would be surprised if there isn't at least a South Korea or Japan coin with a baseball theme. Also, didn't Canada release coins for...
Book value in VF is $37.50. You severely overpaid for this coin. I really don't think you should return it (though you might anyway), since: A)...
Tim, please note this post above. This coin is *nearly* XF. It's XF- in the UK. By US standards, it might have enough detail to be AU53. The...
No Jackie Robinson or 1992 US dollar baseball coins?
The fact that Swiss timepieces exist today likely invalidates the above prediction: Quartz clocks have been around since 1927; Quartz watches have...
Isn't the point to coinage simply to have the intrinsic value be lower than the denominated value? It doesn't have to be immediately profitable...
How would you even pick those up? 2mm is on the scale of the tip of a fine point Sharpie pen, I think.
Depends on how one defines best, but I think the best coin I ever got in change was a quarter in Thailand. The cashier said that some American...
Or, in this particular case, it's the "go-to" argument when you know the counter-party will simply start a new thread with a slightly tweaked...
My smallest coin that I own is the 12mm 1-1/2 pence issue shown here: http://www.cointalk.com/attachments/dsc_0016-jpg.279236/...
VF environmental damage. Seriously, Tim, why don't you go purchase a UK coin book on grading or something? Better yet... Aren't you writing a...
For anyone still reading this thread, I want to note something about BeLoMo. If you're thinking about buying a BeLoMo 10x triplet, buy it now....
I think it's been cleaned relatively recently (last 30 years?).
The mottling appears to only be on the reverse edges, so it shouldn't detract from the visual appearance of the coin.
Dead links. No one can help you if you don't post actual images.
To answer the question regarding the coins posted: ASE: No point to grading this unless key date (1995-W), and even then, no real point. Morgan:...
