I sold 2006 Anniversary ASEs graded 69 some with FS labels and a couple of PR70s that had developed milk spots after 20 years.............. Also some $5 gold commemoratives with PCGS labels. -

Re: The Genuine Value of OGH's and CAC Stickers
I can make sense of the 66 OGH no sticker (generic), and the 66 OGH gold sticker (superb all there 67). But the 66 OGH green sticker probably wouldn't sticker every time through imo. 66 green stickered OBV is a bit scruffy with considerable grazing and some high point friction. The reverse has considerable milk… -
I have a metal detecting outting planned next week! (Results addded)
I'll be hiking about 5 miles in to an older mill campsite from the late 1890s with my Ace 350 with 10x14" DD Excelerator and DetectorPro Pistol Probe. I took a whole day off of work, will be packin' a sandwhich and bringing my malamute. Should make for a fun day off work! Photos to come plus a report, probably on… -
Re: Will PCGS designate a Cheerios Cent on their slab???

Re: China's latest export boom: Fake gold coins
Originally posted by: BillJones Fake gold coins have been showing up in fake NGC and PCGS holders were quite a while. It makes sense that the Chinese would move into this area. There is more money to be made from "discount" fake gold than "discount" fake silver and copper. It would be interesting to see how well this "gold… -
Re: Dipping 40% silver Ike?
Just curious since I did not catch this original thread. Did your hazing dip off? My experience has been that a lot of these 40% IKEs, especially the 1971-S's, actually have milk spotting and milk smears which will not dip off. -
Re: Two Bidders Really Wanted to Own This Coin
Yes sir, nothing uglier on this planet than toned gutter metal. Dip em all I say. RGDS! Edit to add: well except maybe milk spots. THKS! -
2006 w ASE Unc without milk?
Do you think these will command a premium after they have been slabbed a while and still not developed milk spots? After one has been slabbed a year or so...are they probably not going to get them or is it still something that can strike at any time?
