Re: Diamond in the rough

Looks fantastic. rogerg- Did you also use the finishing glaze? Looked at the 3M website, they do make an ultrafine compound but this one said it was better on harder finishes. Since the slab plastic is harder than car paint, I chose this one. Now if you can get some calamine lotion on that eagle, t...

Got this from Heritage last week and thought I would look for any markers.
Found a few, turns out it's a VAM 75 not 1.

Re: Selling 151 Vams

I also got 6, a little extra on two "I just had to have". Let some go to stronger bids, snoozed on one. Went over my budget, as always.

Re: Work of lady dollar planchet adjusters - 1904

Interesting that they had "bean counters" watching workers even back then. I wonder if Soule, Kennedy or Todd were my relatives.

Re: Some Vams you just wont Sell

As for me, I'm a collector not a dealer like some of you are. I used to be an accumulator, as long it was money from somewhere, I kept it. Then one day a guy at work was showing someone a raw Morgan he bought on Ebay. He said he wanted to get one of each date and mint. Cool idea. I had bought a PCGS...

Done that. Nothing. That is my main question, Why was the 58 eliminated and to what? Here is a pic of mine showing the unmentioned crack that can be seen on the full coin pic of V-58.
