I found it from the toning premium thread. The final price was $1,145. And he paid a premium because he loved the look. It seems that some people...
I said MA, but in reply to your question, I believe @Mainebill did pay a premium for the coin (please correct me if that is not true Mainebill)....
I have also heard/read that they are AT, but have not seen enough to make a definitive judgement. So back to this 1928, you don't believe a...
What do you think about the leather pouch theory for this one? Are you familiar with the NGC "314" Peace Dollars? Could this be similar to those?
TruViews can hide some things. I was debating between 64 and 65, but guessed it was closer to a 65. I could see some hits being hidden in the...
Like some others, I also have Eagles/Maples/rounds bought at higher spot prices (I'm not sure if I'd classify it as a regrettable purchase; I just...
@Pickin and Grinin @jtlee321 @JPeace$ let's get some more opinions on this one.
I also think the toning looks almost like a residue. Could it also be toning from a pouch (or leather that it was stored in at some point)? I'm...

Summary of results: ----------------------- Coin 1 - Clad Dime (pg.1) - 2 (NT/MA) vs 6 (AT/QC) Coin 2 - Franklin (pg. 1) - 3 (NT/MA) vs 7 (AT/QC)...
Right now I can go on eBay and buy some PF 69s for $6.50 each with free shipping. So that pretty much sets the ceiling on prices. You don't need...
If it was one sale, then maybe. But there are many sales that are at $5 each or less. Whatever it costs to grade does not matter (dealers make...
Compare to eBay sold listings and you'll see that most of those sell for $2-$5. Edit: links didn't work...just search each president and select...
I’d suspect there would be a bit more leniency if it was a late 50s/early 60s nickel. That’s a good point.
Agreed. If it was submitted multiple time, I'd expect this one to straight grade (be deemed MA) more times than not, but it is close enough (maybe...
Thank you! Your German album is progressing well and I love the coins you've showed so far. I'm certain you'll find the dollars for your US album...
Let's discuss something less controversial....how about AT vs NT :p
Next up is a nickel. Now note that it's a 1996 and not from the 50s-70s era (that is why I'm posting it here for opinions). [ATTACH]
