Re: Coin Dealers

I had a guy offer me $85 on a modern $5 in an NGC PF69 UCAM holder. I agreed with him that the coin was really only worth a few dollars more than the gold value which was about $103 at the time. But it made me mad that he offered almost $20 less than the gold value. Last weekend I sold a few K-rands and I called around for… -
Re: so what's with all the ferrets?

Ferrett's are probably one of the coolest critters you can have, I've had 3 and they are not only amusing to their owners but they tend to amuse even their own self. Far better mouser's than a run of the mill cat. I have been seriousley considering another. The first one i had would make sound's that i mistook for a… -
Counterfeit Morgan 1885?

Hello, I made an impulse buy on a Morgan dollar on eBay about a week ago. The seller, who specializes in coins, has a 99.8% positive rating with over 51,000 stars, so I did not question the genuineness of the coin. After I got it, I sent images to an AI program, and it flagged it. It suggested that I take it out of its… -

CBH alert - capped bust half dollar for the weekend - 1813 O.101a

1813 O.101a. Cracked from ANACS slab back in 2004. VF 30. Labeled as O. 101 but I feel this was misattributed. There is strong evidence of the lapping that lessened the UNI and removed part of the claw and olive stem. Weak milling. Great obverse and reverse die clashes - most interesting is the D STATES OF clashed directly… -

Re: Finest-known 1893-S $1 Sold to Private Party by Legend Numismatics
The Vermeule coin is absolutely natural and original, and is better looking than the pics. The top pics are from ANR, whose images are usually overexposed with high brightness; but I enhanced them in Photoshop to try to make them look more like the coin (unsuccessfully though). Still, this is a coin for someone who values… -
Re: Advice for Fantasy BB draft -
Here is a list I used over the weekend for my drafts that I found on the web and liked: Red Sox - Jonathan Papelbon (4). No problems here, Manny comments notwithstanding. Mets - Francisco Rodriguez (5). Twins - Joe Nathan (6). He pulled out of the WBC with a shoulder issue, but seems fine now. Yankees - Mariano Rivera (6).… -
Re: 1921 Peace Dollar & 1921 Walking Lib
<< <i>Not sure how that could be PVC unless there was a lot of copper in that part of the coin's surface. Could you explain this a little more? It has me puzzled. >> PVC normally manifests itself as green colored on copper based coins such as cents. The pale green color is due to cuprous chloride Cu2Cl2 or cupric chloride… -
Re: Anything you'd pay almost anything to acquire? (white whale discussion)
The guys above are spot on about the PSA 9 Mick-- 150k is beyond low these days. (Mick6, thought you would dig. As a fellow centering fiend I love seeing a good pic myself. My collecting focuses on finding usually OC cards with anomalously good centering. Would probably have 7'd before the .5 system, but happy regardless…
