Re: Hamilton to be Dropped from $10 for Woman

Why not just say Elizabeth Cady Stanton? I thought that some might be inspired to take a closer look at ECS and what she stood for if I be a little mysterious and use initials instead of full name of person who you have identified correctly as Elizabeth Cady Stanton. Born on November 12, 1815, in Johnstown, New York,… -

Amazing toned 1922 Peace Dollar Electric-Blue, blue, maroon, orange, etc.
I am not an expert to toning, and I just recently found out (through these boards) that toned peace dollars arent common. A few years ago, I went to my grandmothers house in Colorado after she died (to clean up the house, it was a royal mess). While I was there, I found many coins (this is actually where I really got… -
Re: Ever had a "collection" sneak up on you?
You're story is a little too familiar Bochiman. I'm working on a colonial - present type set that's mostly encased in plastic and still mostly 20th century, I like all the series. I'm not all about the plastic or PCGS necessarily, but I'm no expert, so the opinion is nice. Even if their opinion is wrong, like the 1 ACG… -
Congratulations to silver (@22.62) - outperforming gold

This no dis to Proof's thread but a compliment to it. Silver is climbing the Great Wall that the Hunt Brothers built three decades ago. Silver may have just reached a new base station.

Re: Texas Administrative Code Regarding Some Pertinent Provisions For Coin Auctions
Lee, SINCE YOU BROUGHT IT UP I'LL GIVE YOU THE COURTESY OF A RESPONSE: With all due respect. By their own admission they used a false bidder. True, those willing to excuse that breach would argue that that was a procedural violation as opposed to an egregious one and simultaneously ascribe no ill intent. What is even more… -

Re: One of One? Or, PMD?
In short: no. This does not happen. If the mint were to deliberately damage or deface a die because it failed an inspection, it would simply be destroyed; they wouldn't carve ampersands on it and then strike coins with it. And if, hypothetically it did happen, then a "mark" carved or stamped onto a die would create a… -
Re: Selling fake 1893cc morgan ....is that legal?

. if they did that, they'd have to flag HUUUUUUGE numbers of certs, i've seen hundreds and not put but a C- effort into it. there are probably many thousands of compromised certs, provenances, attributions (errors/varieties) etc. for both pcgs and ngc. imo, after looking at the selling history, it was only a matter of time…
