Amercain Eagle WP set

Received my 2 coin AE set 7/3/2013 I received my American Eagle set last Wednesday and boy were they pretty the enhanced sp coin was just stunning. I sent them off the same day to NGC they both looked like 70's to me at least that's what I'm hoping for. My luck I'll get a 69 and a 70 and I'll end up buying 2 coins from the after market and sell the 69 to recoup some of my money. But with fingers crossed and a little luck I won't have to buy the 2 coins. Has anyone received theirs back fro

A new addition to my modern comm collection

Not real big on toned coins Today I received a 1991-1995 WWII P half dollar NGC graded MS 69. At first glance I did not like the coin and almost sent it back because I like my silver coins bright and shinny but the more I look at it the more I liked it. The obverse has a small amount of bronze toning around the rim the reverse is completely bronze in color. that is the reason I fell for this coin. I will have pictures of this coin up early next week, when I receive a batch of coins coming

A disapointing day

what I thought was a rare coin is a fake I found what looked like a 1959 no mint mark wheat cent a few days ago. with my trusty 7x lighted magnifying glass it looked good. however when viewed with my 100x microscope it was easy to see that it was a 1950 with a tail added to make it look like the rare 1959. now that my dreams of a new home and muscle car are dashed. I'll just have to keep looking and find that rare coin to make myself rich. who knows maybe my powerball ticket will pay off.

COMPLETED A GOAL WAY EARLY

A great day for my registry points Today I entered 2 sets that NGC completed today one with 26 coins and another with 14 coins. I had set a goal of breaking the 500 mark by the end of this year. And I managed to do it in mid may. I am at this time setting a 496 in the registry standing, and I still have 4 silver mint sets and at least 2 dozen mint sets to have graded this year. I think I'll revise that goal to make it into the high 300's by renewal time in Jan 2014. In closing I'm a ve

Silver American Eagle set

had I known I'd have fired up the BBQ I just completed my order for the new west point American Eagle set I logged on to the US Mint site at 11:58 and waited until 12:03 to try and place my order. very long story short at 12:51 I was able to complete my online order. I bet the poor people at the Mint received at least 10,000 orders in the first 45 min. well at least I know that sometime after 5/17/2013 I will receive my coins I just hope they look as great in person as they do in there cat

new American eagle set

do you think its fair? Hello fellow collectors, I have a question for you all. NGC is offering the retro black slabs for the new American Eagle coins to BULK submissions only which is 50 sets or more. I believe that the black slabed coins will demand a higher price in the future than the white ones will. As an elite member I think than the option of the black slabs should be offered to all members no matter how many sets they submit until the slabs they have on hand are gone. So tell me p

Found what I think is a strange Lincoln cent today

Did wheat pennies not stop with 1958? Today while sorting some of my wheat cents I came across a 1959 no mint mark wheat cent. Is this a mint error or am I wrong in thinking all Wheaties stopped in 1958? Any help would be helpful.

God Works in mighty ways

4 day stay in the hospital will changes a man I had the misfortune to spend Sunday Afternoon until 1 pm today in the hospital, with what they first thought was congestive heart problems now this will scare the holy heck out of even a God loving 52 year old man like myself. Thank the Great All Mighty it was only excess fluid in my lungs and around my heart. I lost 8.5 pounds in one day. Now the reason I'm writing this post is not to preach my belief's I have but to warn all of you who are long

Great day to be a collector of modern coins

2013 starting out to be a great year I sent in my new 2013 Proof set to NGC for grading. And today I received the results and was blown away 9 out of 14 were perfect PF 70 UC with the other 5 PF 69 UC that's the best grading results for a single proof set I've ever had. Just a warning for all of you who summit this set there seems to be a small glitch in NGC's registry program as 2 of my pf 70 uc coins were only given 1 registry point. but a quick call to NGC has this small problem being s

A sad date in history for one of Amercias best Presidents

The day America mourned Today is the day we lost a great President when President Lincoln died from a single gun shot to the back of his head. His killer didn't even have the backbone to face his foe. For some unknown reason the name john wilkes Booth is still known to our school children. So take a moment today and remember the man who held this great country together, And died for doing so...
