I was talking about the 1913 in general, I would be shocked to learn that the general public knows much about pedigrees aside from the Olsen example.
I've told this story before, but while working for a New Orleans based dealer, I helped in placing the Olsen specimen (aka the King Farouk, Hawaii...
The 77 is reasonable, but if you are new to collecting, be very careful. Trade dollars may be the most counterfeited coin of all time, and some of...
I agree on the 74, you gotta love the honest look of that one.
Hi Bella. If it looks like a regular dime, it is a standard dime made in Philadelphia. But if it looks way more detailed than the other dimes and...
Well there was an 85, but it was only a PR-61 so I drilled a 1/4" hole in it and wear it on a chain. No need to waste money on grading that lowball.
What's this now? You guys are posting proof trade dollars and I wasn't notified? Just kidding of course, I've been away for a while, but I...
Sorry I'm so late responding, been way too busy lately. The sets are standard five piece brilliant sets. Some of the coins are relatively low...
Don't forget the 2005-P. I'm not sure if I'm getting the story correct, but I hear that most of the mintage ended up outside of the US for some...

I could use all kinds of demonstratives to describe that coin, but very few would be considered good selling points. The truth is though that...
Yea, been in and out for a while and Mardi Gras beat me up last week.
I agree with the MS-64 grade. The strike is a bit too weak and there are a few too many contact marks for a higher grade. And it looks genuine.
That's a pretty cool gift, I like the David Hall autograph. What gives with the new avatar Matt?
Is that a copper 1943 in the bottom of the last image? If it is, sell it as a lot, they are far too common to bother listing it individually....
It looks fishy to me. If you are new to collecting, stick with certified trade dollars until you familiarize yourself a little better with them....
I went to three large shows last year and only bought five coins. There have never been any bargains on nice coins, but lately I've seen prices...
Nice, AU-53.
It's hard to tell from the images if they are proofs, but it certainly looks like one. If it is, they should all have full steps. This would be...
I agree that Morgans are a pretty easy to complete because of the availability, but it is also an expensive set. Trade dollars on the other hand...
