The ring sound is really close to my ears. All I have is the cell phone camera, and the pics are too big to upload here. So they are at Flickr:...
Way back in January I bought a roll of "problem dollars" from a well-known dealer. I'm doing a set of low-grade/junk Morgans, so over time I went...
I agree it's very cool. I wish I had a spare $799!
Coast to Coast now offering the set at $1695: http://www.coastcoin.com/itemdesc.asp?ic=129922&eq=&Tp= How long now before the Ebay prices...
Just got a notice from MintProducts, which is now selling the ATB sets for $3k. I have to wonder where these dealers are getting these sets. The...
TC, thanks for the reply. I'm beginning to think this is a combination of an issue with the case, coupled with carelessness by the dealer. One of...
I picked up a wholesale lot of 10 2009 Australian Gilded Koalas in original packaging from ModernCoinMart, and I've noticed something strange....
Teletrade is running a March Madness special, where you get $100 of your seller's fee back (more with higher amounts sold). I can't find a...

Hopefully, your Coast to Coast coins won't come back as "cleaned", as one of mine recently did. See my results in this thread:...

Actually, I bought from these guys based on what I read in these forums. I guess I didn't catch that the high marks being given were for bullion...
When we buy a coin as "average circulated" from an online dealer, what should we expect? Personally, I always assume Good or better, but recent...
Is determining a date something that a TPG would do? I know it would cost several times the value of the coin if it's a 40 or 43, but if it's a...
My bad, it was in the 2x2 on the scan bed. Here is the whole obverse:
These pics are actually scans, with the coin flat on the scan bed. Not sure what I can do differently.
I was wondering about that possibility. An old Cherrypicker's book I have mentions a diagnostic die gouge on the reverse. Does anyone know of any...
I really don't think it is a 1940. There is a noticeable line just before it fades into the rim, which is why someone thought it was an 8. The...
I bought a bunch of single-coin mercury auctions of the Bay a while back. I didn't think anything of it at the time, having just gotten back into...
