  1. Wow! Don’t let anyone know of this guy! Great finds as usual!
  2. You are totally correct, there’s ALWAYS more of them! I can’t stand waiting a week just to have it slip away like a f**t in the wind.
  3. It’s a beautiful coin just the same! I was looking at those last week. Rick Harrison said “ the problem with shipwreck coins is that someone may find more of them reducing value “ it appears to me that someone scraped off a label. Can you physically feel the scrape? Last week I was looking at an 1853 but so many fakes are out there. At least you know it’s real.
  4. Lisa is there any way to list proof sets in the registry if they are ungraded? I have lots of them.
  5. It is correct Lisa. Blame dislexia and. Elm phone text. Thank you for checking it out. It’s legit Bill
  6. BYea Boss I know, it’s the gamble you sign up for. I was just chapped because I was snip d two times in a row. In the end, I got what I was after. I actually got a great buy yesterday on an NGC MS63 O Morgan im happy now
  7. Bought this NGC graded coin yesterday and received a denial on the numbers how can this be?
  8. A seller said n our experience the buyer uses a snip program of some sort. Looks like they are half a country away from us
  9. Thus us my 1950 D actually one of the ones I don’t think is FBL
  10. Yes the vast majority of the 1948-1963 FBL are very nice, a couple are suspect in my mind. Fir some reason the 51d’s are usually well over $100, but I got this one at $55 all in. They can be seen in my Registry (I think)
  11. Thanks it completes my MS64FBL set! Quite proud of that! Also the 1904 O Morgan has been on my bucket list and this one has some toning too. my lucky day I guess
  12. Actually I did! Found a seller who accepts offers, submitted two offers got two new beauties for a bit under retail. an MS63 1904 0 Morgan and a 1951 D Ben Franklin MS64FBL
  13. Lol and it has full step! One! still pretty darned nice fir a RH coin.
  14. I’m slow in catching on. But I just found what I wanted that accepts offers which the seller promptly accepted. This is going to be my new approach. Got my last Ben Franklin MS64Fbl and a nice 1904 O Morgan MS 63 for less than retail with free shipping.
  15. Twice this week I have been bid sniped on eBay. I was the only bidder for six days and a few minutes befor ending, another higher bid received. Three times I raised, and at the 1 second mark the bid was sniped. EBay explains their policy. Attached. so they allow software to Bid snipe.
  16. Eagle, Sandon, I got interested in American Ninja and missed out on the half dollar. Most likely for the best. I found an excellent buy on a 1948 silver half crown to satisfy my hunger this week . VkurtB yes there is a Santa Claus!
  17. Here is another one that has a funny mint mark position and appears to have been cleaned . I see many of these coins selling as “shipwreck effect “ SS Republic. Who knows the original coin, as the seller agrees is 100% real guaranteed. Selling around $45. I want one of these, I don’t care if it is shipwreck or not. So I am still considering it.
  18. Thank you Sandon! The seller guarantees it is a real coin however, all of the things you mentioned are very likely. thank you!
  19. Thanks Eagle, I appreciate the feedback. I’m usually not a raw coin buyer, but I have purchased from this seller before and they have a good rep. But I will seriously check it out.
  20. Thanks JP! I’m gonna pass, this seller always has a lot of too good to be true coins anyway. B
  21. As long as we’re on the subject of whizzing cleaning, I’m about to pull the cord on this nice half dollar example, fell free to adjudicate
  22. Please follow the suggestion on the post things you should do before posting on thus forum.
  23. They are distinguished from the millions of other 1936 pennies minted in the final year of King George V's reign by the miniscule dot placed below the date on the “tails” side of the coin.Apr 19, 2013 David Vagi says:
