From what I've seen, with a little patience it's not hard to find common double eagles at low premiums. For eagles and half-eagles, I'm not sure...
Sure is great, though, for people who bought when the premiums were lower. I'm probably not under water on any of my (few) ASEs at this point,...
Trying to do some quick mental calculations about crush strength to figure out just how much stuff is in some of those boxes -- looks like it's...
How do you find time, between opening all those boxes? ;)
Yep. They clearly screwed up the label because it disagrees with itself, but the Accented Hair attribution does not match the coin.
Hmm... apparently I was in that thread. How embarrassing. To be fair, it has been a while.
I'm trying to figure out how they could've gotten the attribution AND an MS grade onto the same label. Is someone faking ANACS slabs now?
Oh, it's a special trinary at that, where each digit is an integer multiple of 3! ;)
This all sounds quite... organized, doesn't it?
Point your friend to PCGS Photograde. ;) Looks like a solid F to me, assuming it hasn't been cleaned (can't tell from these photos). I see all...
All those years with more money than time, and all those coins. Aren't you glad now that you were buying coins, and not, oh, say, designer...
It is gold plated, which makes it "collectible" in the sense of magazine ads and TV infomercials, but just "damaged" for actual coin collectors....
It's not "overgraded" and it's not "not genuine", and it looks to me like those are the only two failure modes where their guarantee covers "loss...
Not to mention the Washington quarter in 1932 and forever after...
Now, that will get you a reputation among your friends.
I've forgotten most of the stuff I learned in combinatorics, but it seems to me that somewhere north of 30% of all radar notes must be trinary or...
Yeah, I'd rather not spread the details around, but it seems to me that it would be fairly easy to put whatever date you like on a coin that you...
Right. The salt itself (sodium chloride) dissolves completely, and can't be abrasive when it's in solution. But many forms of salt have insoluble...
I think you missed a joke. ;)
What's your in-hand opinion on those marks/scratches/graffiti on the cheek?
Separate names with a comma.
