Why I love AU-58 and hate MS60, MS61, MS62
First I want to state that I’m referring to accurately graded coins – not the label. In two of the series I collect, Flying Eagle and Indian Head cents, the real sleepers are the AU-58s. Probably the most spectacular example is the 1858/7 Flying eagle cent. Numismedia prices for 1858/7 Flying Eagle cents: AU-55 $1970 AU-58… -
Re: Q David Bowers to Modern Collectors: Be Cautious
For the ultramoderns, where PR69DCAM and MS69 are practically the rule, these are struck expressly for the collector. 70 pops not so hgh on either an absolute or relative basis? I'd challenge the assumption that PCGS has seen much of the overall Mint pops in the first place. They are practically indiscernably different and… -

NEWPs: Ancients. Yes, I have been bad.
These three came at me at once and price/quality ratios. A bit painful, yet really nice pieces that fit my taste. I have looked at the Selinus pieces in auction catalogs and could not find a well centered piece. The Ancient Greek colony of Selinus in Sicily, was named after wild parsley that grew abundantly there;… -
Re: When between sets....
"When between sets ...." Thank you, Trade Dollar Nut, that's exactly where I am now. The sets I've actively collected, including my favorite, the US Philippines, are all at a point where hole-fills and up-grades are few and far between. But I've collected enough of these series that even the occasional one-here, one there… -
Re: I Send eBay Information About Removing the Fake 1895 Dollar & They Remove One of My Listings! Di
Brandon, I also think that ebay has some valid arguments as I have listed below. It doesn't mean they don't make sense, but you did violate their rules. This does not mean that they should not have taken action against the other guy though. Even with both of these said, the thing that I find totally amazing is that they… -

First Sub in a while. Poppage today. Baseball, Football, Wrestling
Sent in my first submission in quite a while. the T206 cards were given to me by a friend and I just wanted them encapsulated and didn't expect high grades. I didn't expect much from the Bill Goldberg either but wanted it encapsulated as well. I think I did pretty good on this submission. The two 91 Ultra Gold cards will… -

Re: Hansen watch.
Proof Large Cent Addition Several of these cents are known, and judging by their color and impression it has always been considered they were a few special pieces made for some appreciative numismatist in 1829."- Henry Chapman, 1906 Unusual is a term that P. Scott Rubin used to describe this coin: The Bronzed Proof 1829…
