Re: Krugerrand alert !!

Just for fun let’s look at some numbers. Latest ebay sale from June of this year for an NGC PF69 Ultra Cameo went for 470 plus 2.95 shipping. (We’ll exclude shipping in our exercise, because I have no way of knowing why shipping so low on a coin like this). In our first example we’ll use gold spot (...

Re: Introducing myself as Melody

3. Traditional wisdom says unless a coin has ~ $150.00 value, its generally not worth grading. The grading fees are too high to make it worth your while. I agree with most of what you have stated, with one exception. The arbitrary “150” value. For arguments sake say to grade a coin with shipping an...

Re: 1909 VDB Matte finish

I would try and compare your coin on the PCGS photograde page. Hold your coin up to the screen to see where it fits, it should give you a better ballpark of possible grade to research sold listings. Red book and the like are guides to the value, not necessarily what you will get. Ebay/heritage sold ...

Re: FYI when purchasing coins from U.S. Mint

Re: FYI when purchasing coins from U.S. Mint

Appears the mint sold out of the S proof coin sometime today. Well technically it’s unavailable, so once returns and payment rejections are sorted out, will likely have a small amount to sell still, but overall looks like the price increase didn’t slow it down much to go through 200K in 2 days....

Re: 1938 D MS66 RD RPM wheat penny

I am not a variety expert at all. It appears you paid a good price and yes I would send in to get variety added, it increases the value enough to justify IMO.
I’ll let the experts weigh in however and I’d follow their advice.

Re: 1982 penny 2.5 grams is this the real deal?

Welcome. I’m not even close to an expert, but it appears you have 2 different coins posted? One large and one small date?
The weight is right at 2.5 grams for either.
Normally it’s easier if you post one coin per post or it gets confusing for the experts (and dummies like me) to give advice.

Re: Should I grade this 1989 d penny

Compare It to the PCGS photo grade examples. It would need to be MS68 to cover grading fees. They are only 81 in 68 and 1 in 68+ that’s been graded at PCGS so it’s a long shot and gamble. 921 89 D’S have been graded (in red which yours seems to be but had to tell completely with the lighting you hav...

Re: Where's Waldo, er...I mean post-2000 halves

They stopped issuing them in 2002 for circulation so if they are in rolls people have cracked out of mint/proof sets or bought directly from mint in rolls and bags.
