privately minted round. those are pretty common. most, but not all have purity and weight stamped on the rim. Usually comes with a coa unless...
[IMG] These are mine, missing 1998 and some in the 2000s. I try to buy them if I see them for (relatively) cheap.
You dont even have to worry about that. The overall quality of these coins are poor anyways. So count on getting a 68 or 69 in quality. Even...
Early on, yeah. Now silvertowne is charging around $290 + shipping. Apmex and other dealers already has theirs at $400. Ebay is running in the...
^ lol... the TPGs have been giving 70s for imperfect RPs to the larger submitters.
^ But aren't those in air-tites that you can open easily as well? Say a fake gold buff?
^ They're counting on the buyer being too lazy to crack them because upon visual inspection, it appears to be legit. Whereas if they ship the...

How fast do these coins sell out? As far as I can tell the most recent two, the cougar and moose are still being sold. But the first two of the...
not all coins tone the same. a lot of it has to do with how the coins are stored. If the coins are stored in paper, plastic or other material...
Well, I got my set in. The proof looks pretty damn good. The RP has some light stray markings that you can see on certain angles. I guess I can...
That's pretty sad actually. Because with the 2011 set, those tics disqualified the coins as 70s, pcgs or ngc. I guess with the lower quality...
Silvertowne got more stock in, pricing is now $290 for 70s. They have NGC and a PCGS "multiholder" Looks like they raised ALL the prices on the...
What he said.... Amazing that this coin was just slabbed and already has milk spots. Hope mine isn't the same. There's something about the PCGS...
^ Agreed.
They do not have to be perfect. I think the highest loupe they will go to look for imperfections is maybe a 5x. Once you start magnifying to...
