Crappy photo has nothing to do with it. The photo in the auction is either of a different coin or has been doctored. Even a crappy photo would...
Isn't this somewhat the idea behind the CDN Certified Coin Market Indicator? http://www.greysheet.com/cdn/cdnccmi.asp Unless I'm completely...
Very cool
quick google search found this http://www.jakesmp.net/Numismatic_novelties/NN_004_coin_replicas_C.html
Not sure if this is the issue, but I have heard about bad algorithms driving up prices on some more obscure items on sites like Amazon. Something...
They sell them at the gift shop in the American history museum in DC. Went in there last year to check out the coinage exhibit and seem to...

That is very, very impressive. Congratulations. Reminds me that I need to get working on mine...
Quick logistics question for the roll hunters out there. For those that re-roll their coins to bring to a bank for deposit, how do you do it? Do...
