Re: Photos of some of my new purchases.
Some great coins Kevin. * Bummer the reverse of the 1952 Franklin doesn't look like the obverse. * The 1957 looks to be a solid CAM. * That first 1958 is great, don't think your fields quite get you to DCAM, but as you know, a nice CAM grade is a good score for the date. * You and those darn 1959's! I'm still looking for… -
Re: "It's just bullion" why do some collectors need to put down others?
<< <i> << <i> The bullion coins really have no historical significance at all, didn't pass through the hands of a '49ner, weren't issued at the Columbian Exposition, etc. The only thing cool about them is the design, but I'd much rather buy come common date Saints for the same price.

Re: Is NGC having a turn for the worst?

The long term collector should already be concerned about this. I agree completely. however, when a company is still in… -
Re: Dansco Albums
<< <i>1) It seems rather easy to hairline the coins or to otherwise damage them as they are placed in or removed from the album. How do people deal with this? >> Put the coins in the album while wearing gloves. Keep the album in a dust-free environment, since little grains of dust can sometimes scratch a coin if they get… -
Re: Franklin half reverse - frost bleeding into fields ?
I see a milksop over the F in "HALF", but I don't see frost bleeding into the fields. If you mean the areas around the lower portion of the left side of the bell and between the bell and the eagle then I interpret them to be photographic artifacts. -
