Numismatic, A.A.S.

Great Collections definitely...Ian is Top Tier Exposure and 0% if it hammers over $1K...picture quality for coins is natural and high...

Paid pretty fast considering the coins and time of year....he is awesome and has been since before GC...he was at a Top Auction house before GC.

In other words, you have no evidence and just want to bloviate, expecting to be believed as though you were some oracle--then getting all crabby when challenged.

Not only do I not believe you, I don't even believe you are thinking clearly.

Just as I thought.....never once hunted and viewed coins from there....it's OK to research and Love and enjoy coins...I'm sure your an astute collector and an intelligent person, probably have an amazing collection, if you put your hat in the ring son just make sure you've walked down that particular road before....peace

Yes, except I refuse to even have a Facebook account. Too much anti-privacy creepiness there. Mr. Zuckerberg can go pound sand.

Facebook has been caught selling everyone's info....I dropped them myself awhile back...Little boy Liberal anti-gun owner but has a security detachment team packing Automatic weapons....just like his kind.....

Good luck on the trip.....if I'm even here after this....

While their communities have cultural foibles and issues and myopias 

I didn't know they did? I'm not one to judge the cultural foibles or their so called issues and could care less if you pick them apart. All I know is what I stated about the number of counterfeit coins from them. I also owe you no evidence of my statement.  You definitely have never experienced this, have you even tried to buy coins from them? Really, tell the truth, don't just make a "noble" statement, really...what coins in the last 30 years until this Spring have you looked at from them and be honest....If you want to be a social justice warrior, do it at someone else's expense.

I didn't mean that your two cents are worthless. My bad, I meant that My two cents are usually worthless.

and 

 No, I could not tell you off the top of my head. I haven't got to that chapter in the book.

 

you definitely make my day!

I stand corrected by you....I will watch my replies and remember we are here for Coin Talk Fun....my apologies Sir.

It's no excuse but from a lay over and 2 no shows, then a dealer I won't name backs out from a promise over the phone....on top of expenses with no return.......I might hit the Basil Hayden's tonight...

Is it whizzed?

Lets see, Hub doubling, machine doubling, die deterioration doubling, repunched dates, and Longacre doubling.  There may be a case of re-engraving but i don't think so except possibly in the of repair hub breaks.

I think you get my point

Where did that uncalled for comment come from.

Most counterfeit coins in that area are traced back to the Mormon's, whom for years told people that their great grandfather's had them saved..which, is a lie and a tool used to sell to others who are non mormon. I guess my "uncalled" for comment comes from experience and however disgusting it may seem...it is by far the truth.

Figured you would of known that or are we not allowed in the new "Millennium" to disclose our truths....others who read this will now think I am bashing mormon's....when in fact I'm only assuring you that those types of counterfeits in that area, come from them.......YOU DON'T THINK THERE ARE MORMONS ON HIGH SPEED COMPUTERS BUYING COUNTERFEIT COINS FROM CHINA DO YOU?

It's why local coin auctions are so brimming with nice original material. Central PA (and parts of New England, I hear) are Ground Zero for nice coin finds

Careful....counterfeit coins run wild around there...especially the mormon country.....big dealer cast off's also...so many customers dissapointed when they show me...I have experienced some tough deals out there... peace...

Tell em take it back to mormon country where it came from...

Most of that year are in that condition, saved like 1900....

Sorry for your experience, it might be different for dealers, I've never had any problems getting an explanation....

I stopped offering a refund to clients as the amount of collectors trying to flip and changing their minds got ridiculous...like they thought I was Walmart and can just bring it back like their used too there... stopped that game long ago....

I personally have found things they didn't mention...but you have to pay for that, many collectors don't care about a DDO/DDR...or varieties....

As far as mistakes....I guess...

As far as Counterfeit and they slabbed it as authentic..no never personally, they are pretty damn good at coin grading and Authenticity....sorry...

You can also contact them if you have any concerns....not sure why people don't contact the source....they are more than willing to help....no pun intended...

I have heard rumors about Omega counterfeits of other coins, but I have no confirmation on them.  He was best know for fake high relief 1907 double eagles withthe symbol e-in the eagles talon, and 1882 three dollar gold pieces withthe symbol in the loop of the R in LIBERTY.  I can't say if he ever actually counterfeited other items.

That's exactly what I learned and subsequently I wasn't sure about the talon...thanks...

Sweet Load of Silver....my mouth was watering and I started to get really excited....my previous post to you stands....AND THANK YOU FOR TAKING MY ADVICE!!!

I'm not always that open but when my cup (I mean  pitcher) runs over....

Holler if you have any questions on varieties or anything.....Love them Coins!!!!

and folks don't get that there are differents kinds of doubling. hence, "You Said it was a Double Die"  

My two cents.  

You can tell me my 2 cents are worthless, I make people feel better everyday....now without looking it up, let's be honest....do you know how many and what types of doubling exist on 2 cent pieces?

One would think (and hope) that this would be the case,  but, in fact, many mint records have been destroyed over the years, and many original drawings, models, galvananos, master hubs and dies, etc. are gone forever.

I thought they stopped the destruction when it was brought to light that the artists at the mint were having their coin drawings taken after submitting their work....people within the Treasury or Mint figured the work would be valuable by the artists so it spread to everything else? 

Wasn't a Coinage Advisory Committee member responsible for getting these saved....

It all started when Bowers and them located the 1964 Dollar Stuff....

Unless it changed again or I'm getting too old!!!

Well aren't you curious. I bought one because I knew they were valuable, but I don't know exactly how valuable. Can you just answer the question?
