This one's coming my way in a swap. It is in a straight-graded TPG slab. Guess the grade, if you are so inclined. Oh, hey, if you're an EAC...
Yep. Sedwick is the go-to authority. Great coin. Easily worth four figures, I'm sure. Too bad the specific shipwreck provenance did not get...
Don't know. Since that's a medieval, you'd need to find completed sales/auctions of similar pieces. It's another really nice piece of early...
Nice circulated coin. Looks VF-ish to me. Has a trace of "woodgrain" toning. This is the kind of coin that's great in an album, but not worth...
It does look like foil-wrapped chocolate! This is a modern fantasy issue with no numismatic value. Its only value is as a novelty item- perhaps...
*sigh* Here we go again. :rolleyes: Dude's not listing the stuff for sale (that I saw), so while we're not necessarily "fine with this", it...
Now here's a Beck YouTube video. Aahhh, the irony. :rolleyes: [MEDIA]
@TypeCoin971793 - You were a subtle influence on me! :) Look what's coming my way in a swap. Sealed the deal this morning. [ATTACH] (Had to...
I haven't lost interest in the hobby, but my work schedule and travel budget (i.e., lack thereof) do mostly preclude my participation in shows...
I would say could, but not necessarily should. Auctions are tricky to predict, as you know. But that's quite a valuable coin.
I have no answer to your questions, since I don't get out to shows much anymore, but have a question of my own to ask. It may be a silly...
I like your new avatar! I don't have any LRBs anymore, but here are some from my first foray into Roman coins. These two were a couple of my...
This. It's hard to say what sort of environmental damage took the copper plating off. Probably something acidic, because whatever removed the...
PS- since it is a family keepsake and not a particularly rare or valuable coin - just a nice piece of old silver... If you would like a...
Nice. I like the pre-1934 Mercs. It was a Mercury dime from my own grandmother that started me collecting, 42 years ago. I still have it.
NGC/Krause listings: FR-295 = $5,000 in MS60, no data for higher grades. FR-297 = $4,750 in MS60, no data for higher grades. But for a coin of...
Coins are struck, not "stamped" or "printed". That's certainly interesting damage on your avatar cent. It's almost artistic. Must surely have...
I've done it several times. "Best" holder is in the eye of the beholder. One reason I drink the PCGS Kool-Aid is because I can't get a good...
Congrats. I'd have been clueless. Just as before. You see, I owned an R-8 once. After I sold it, it became the 1806 O-129 discovery coin. Of...
I dunno, but that target toning is interesting. As is the fact that we're seeing half of a PCGS TrueView but the other pix show the coin in NGC...
