Re: pcgs and other tpg's at the long beach show?
So, I am going to carry my mint sealed box of five 2006 ase three coin sets under my arm and a few raw morgan cc's I guess and see if I can get them graded on site. I am just afraid that when they open that box they find milk spots wish me luck! -
Re: 2007-W ASE MS70 PCGS
<< <i>Think of the 1000's of coins sent to NGC because some 'brilliant' PCGS guy decided in advance that NO MS70 are possibile for Mint State Silver! >> We'll see. If hindsight shows that a bunch of NGC 70s are developing milk spots and NGC has to eat boatloads of them, PCGS will look pretty smart. If that doesn't happen,… -
Re: Rainbow toning in Dansco 7070...has this ever happened to you?
<< <i>Rainbow toning in Dansco 7070...has this ever happened to you? >> I wish! All I ever got was milk spots and haze on my proofs, which is why I wouldn't stick proofs in a Dansco anymore. (At least, not in this environment here, where it is humid, there is lots of salt air from the ocean, and plenty of sulfuric fumes… -
Re: FSH only: 25 ASE's in Dansco. All have toning of some sort. See pics
I've handpicked these for their condition. NO 65's or 66's and a scant few 67's. NO milk spots. Spent years searching for some. Toning is natural, not spectacular but real. It's been fun to collect them but need funds for something a lot more important. Pics of any coin are happily provided if you desire. Price is based on… -
Re: Anyone built (or building) a Dansco Album of Silver Eagles?
<< <i>well, c'mon ......somone post a picture of one of their pages! I think I'm gonna do this. >> Here are some of the toned ones that I just received... I just noticed the milk spots on some of them... The 1997 & 1999 look like CSI was dusting for prints!: I like the ASEs but I like the Brittanias better because the… -
Re: ~*~*~ LordM's OPERATION PAPERCLIP 2012 (all done, winner of final drawing announced) ~*~*~
I got Trade #3 (the Franklin half). I've added some pictures of that now. (They stink- it's actually a decent looking coin, despite a tiny milk spot or two, which are exaggerated by my scanner.) I have two pending offers and will likely accept one of them, but I'm gonna think about it for a day or so. So it's movin' on up,… -
Re: Guess the grade!
<< <i>Obverse appears to be one of the "artifically" frosted DCAM proofs that are now going bad. >> Actually, it's not an artificially frosted coin. Underneath all that crap is a bona fide deep cameo. For the life of me, though, I can't figure out what caused this. I've seen plenty of turned coins - usually milk spotting -… -
Re: A couple of examples of the direction in which the market for early date Kennedys has gone.
<< <i>Not sure what it's worth but now I need a proof set with an AH kennedy to complete my collection too. >> You should be able to pick up an Accented Hair set for $20 to $25 assuming, of course, that it doesn't have a cameo example in it. Here's one with an opening bid of $7.99. Verify the image, though, and ask for a… -
Mantle-Ford Signed Bat Questions
I am a coin collector venturing over to the Sports board to gain some more information. I obtained this bat directly from Mick and Whitey in the early 80's at the Westchester Golf Classic. I do not want to risk potential mailing issues to get certification of authenticity and want to ask if are there shows where I could…
