  1. What is in a 1965 proof set? I can not find it in the price guides.
  2. I just checked website and looks like 4 weeks to open mail and then 51 day average for US economy ... is that current?
  3. I have only directly submitted once so far. I thought I read somewhere that the cut-off was 1956 and after. Now looking I see 1965 and after. Was I mistaken (touch of dyslexia) or did it recently change?
  4. Nice article. There does seem to be a wrong word at the end of the first paragraph ->The extreme doubling seen on the reverse is unparalleled on any other US coin.
  5. It is clearly a mechanical error (something a 6th grader with a redbook could figure out) and the original submitter should have caught it and returned for correction.
  6. That S to the right of the hair stands for San Francisco.
  7. I am thinking of buying a NGC graded coin. To get a variety attribution, do I just pay for variety and re-holder? It is in a MS67 holder now, but looks more like a MS65, will the grade stay the same as long as submitted in slab ?
  8. OMG, I was looking and I have one as well but it is the ENTIRE set .... how much is it worth Ratzie33?
  9. If the mint had an exhibit at the expo, isn't it possible that a purchase was initiated and delivered later? I was hoping to see a proof columbian expo
  10. I just got a call they cancelled the 2 day grading seminar I signed up for. Now I am not sure if I will go, maybe summer FUN.
  11. Registered Mail is most secure. I would not worry about name on address.
  12. The spots are in the same positions so it is the same coin. It is amazing/deceptive how lighting/overexposure can change our looks of a coin.
  13. FSH - $170 delivered (USA) PAYPAL verified addresses 3 1909 VDB cents - a MS65RB, MS64RB and MS63RB group I was starting a grading set and got tired - post here and pm
  14. I sent my first submission in today and was wondering if NGC has always started moderns at 1955? There are other services that seem to start with the clads in 1965.
  15. If you are buying raw coins, you want to be able to see how you are doing and if you need a 'correction'. One way is to send in a batch to get graded. Especially if you do not have the time or money to take a grading class.
  16. unbelievable they get to keep the coin and money back the buyer has had problems buying and selling with negs and neutrals https://www.ebay.com/fdbk/feedback_profile/pasteiner?filter=feedback_page:RECEIVED_AS_SELLER&_trksid=p2047675.l2560
  17. I would not recommend going if you are over 80, over weight, diabetic, smoke, or have other health issues. If not, when will you continue on with your life?
  18. I hope to go and sign up for the intermediate grading class
  19. GovMint is a mail-order / phone sales operation that typically sells at 50% over retail. They do not mint anything but sell stuff from around the world.
  20. are you saying the die pictured in this CoinWeek article is not from the mint? https://coinweek.com/us-mint-news/non-cancelled-martha-washington-obverse-die-offered-for-sale/#:~:text=The first known non-canceled Martha Washington die was,is listed in standard references as Judd %232180.
  21. I saw these for sale and wonder if anyone knows anything about them more than in item description? I saw NGC has graded them. https://www.govmint.com/2pc-2019-50-cent-martha-washngtn-1759-ngc-ms70?ad=765BS&msclkid=00ccdcbf227b15ce9e1c83c18ec063c1
