Re: The 1804 Private restrike Large Cent, a newp with a neat history :)
so a quick glace shows that if this is an authentic "known" 1803 obv die, the only marriages i see where the T in liberty is behind the front hair are on marriage(s) where the bottom right serifs are missing on TY which this coin does not exhibit. ok, they worked on the die(s) some, no argument here BUT the serifs on the… -
Re: Was Billy Williams better than Ernie Banks?
I was going to bring up the fact that it was tougher to hit as a right handed batter at the time. You mention Koufax, but the majority of pitchers are right handed and Sandy was only dominant for 4 seasons, actually only 1 season on the road. Don Drysdale would have been worse to face than Koufax, 6'5" threw inside and was… -
Re: Origins of the 1964 "SMS" Coins (Post Deleted for Errored Info)
I think it's a great idea. Here is the citation for a study where this was actually done: McCarthy, David. 2019. "1942 High-Relief Cent Pattern." The Numismatist (January): 53-56. For this study, Ray Parkhurst created three-dimensional micrographs of 1942 1c Judd-2081, 1942 1c business strike and 1942 1c proof coins;… -
Re: BETTER DATES - What's important to collectors?
Commemoratives provide an interesting better date vs. better grade challenge. There are 16 Boones to choose from for the 50 coin type set. The 1937 has the highest population and the PCGS price guide puts a MS67 with a population of 134+26 at $675. The "key" to the group is the 1934/5-S with a MS66 population of 135+3 for… -

Re: Red Sox are exciting to watch right now (SOMETIMES)
With 2 back-to-back walk off losses to the Giants late in both games and the Seattle loss, Red Sox opportunities are rapidly sinking into the sunset. Losing 3 games in a row right now are huge losses. With only 56 games left to play, I doubt they can pull this out. Trade deadline today, we'll see if Bloom can add some much… -
Re: Got My JHF Roosevelt Auction Catalog Today
<< <i> << <i>I comfortably stand by my comment that the sale was a success and I believe Nick will tell you the same. >> Mitch, I didn't say the auction was not a success; only that 56% of the available coins did not sell. No doubt from a financial standpoint it truly was a success, and that rising tide will (should) lift… -
