It doesn't contradict it at all. You're saying the lack of metal in that part of the planchet, when struck, is the source of the Blakesley effect....
Ah, but the problem with that view is that you're saying the opinion of the grade is always correct. I can assure you it is not. If you give...
Something hardly touched on here is that an across the board percentage of over graded TPG coins does not reflect the reality. For example, old...
For moderns, I use a dealer. It's too difficult to grade from pictures for moderns, where one or two points can make a huge difference. Placing an...
Some great info in that thread, thanks. This all makes a lot of sense. So it seems like what I have is a chain strike edge (coin against...

You had a verbal (or written) contract and he violated it. He doesn't get to change the terms after the fact. The fact that it went up...
[ATTACH] Great eye appeal.
I was a 66 on this one.
This was not a US issue (strictly speaking) at the time it was struck, but I include this in my US quarter type set as these were produced...

In 2009 a new Hungarian 200 forint coin was introduced to account for inflation, as the 100 forint coin had lost about half of its value, making...
