Re: Please help explain to me..Coin vs. grade?
-Dies wear down over time and fine details can become blurred or disappear.- Such coins have and continue to find their way into high grade holders. And in turn, end up in the # 1, 2, 3, 4 top Registry sets creating a false image of great sets and coins, mainly Jefferson nickels. -For some issues, qualifiers like "full… -
Re: ANA Newps
Originally posted by: Aegis3 The 4 reales also appear to have different obverse dies. Check the date spacing. You are correct, but the obverses don't matter. They were locally made. Only the reverses (per the theory) were made from the Spanish matrices. So unless there were multiple matrices for each denomination sent from… -

Re: 1921 Peace Dollar (VAM-1H) - PCGS MS-64 - Struck from Satin Proof Dies - Well Struck - (Ex Goldberg
Since you did not provide a grade, I will venture a guess. The strike is a plus, it does have a few contact marks in the key areas, hard to tell luster from the image so I will be neutral on that end. Overall, I would guess the coin is a mint state 64. I did some research using the "A Guide Book of Peace Dollars" by Roger… -
Re: Horrible Weekend... Cheer me up Please!
"You expected to be sad in the fall. Part of you died each year when the leaves fell from the trees and their branches were bare against the wind and the cold, wintry light. But you knew there would always be the spring, as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen. When the cold rains kept on and killed the… -
Re: How to identify a counterfeit Trade Dollar?
What @OriginalDan is referring to is that specific mint mark doesnt exist on any known genuine dollars from '73. also, it is poorly reflective of genuine dollars. If you compare a genuine '73-cc to this one, blown up, you will see the details are lazy. What I mean by lazy, is that they are a crude representation - easily… -
Re: ::Now With a Bit of a Twist!:: Just For Fun Basics. Which 1914-D is Real and Which One is Fake?
Great answers, one and all, but I suspect there really is no way to have figured it out, especially based on the photos only. (Now, in hand, the answer would reveal itself to you a bit more readily.) The second coin is a counterfeit minted from false dies (according to ANACS). Now, feature this (!): The oh so brilliant… -
Re: A little bit of everything
Don't get me wrong, wrestlers are as tough as they come, their bodies take a ton of punishment, professional wrestling is an extremely physical thing. The chair shots are real, the bumps they take falling off cages and ladders are real, and you can't fake having thumb tacks stuck in your body. Just take Mick Foley for… -

Re: POLL: Who is most likely to go 0-16
All joking aside, if the Squeelers stick with Kordell, the Pus and that piss-poor secondary, The Steelers will go defeated (0-16). They can thank ESPN, CNNSI, and every other professional sports analyst that gave fans false hope once again. As a Pats fan, I would rather have the "pros" dis-respect my team and put all the…
