February 19, 2008: Change and change, CAC Coins, NGC Hologram Update
By admin | February 19, 2008
Welcome to Coin Update!
This morning two somewhat unrelated articles both take a look at the idea of change. A market report including some insight on CAC coins, NGC updates their hologram, a lucky penny, kids and coin collecting, and notable auctions. On to the links…
Two interesting views on coins and money. Keep the change, basically a rant against the Dollar Coin. Change he can believe in, the plight of the man behind the Liberty Dollar and Ron Paul Dollar.
A market report from Legend Numismatics, including some insight on the acceptance of CAC stickered coins.
NGC updates the hologram used on their holders and launches a new website at NGCTerms.com.
Here’s an article about the benefits of introducing your children to coin collecting.
CoinValues takes a look at a few of the reasons behind vast price differences for identically graded coins- grading standards and competition by registry set bidders.
The story of Dale Earnhardt Sr. and his lucky penny.
And now for some notable auctions. A truly stunning 1954 Franklin Half NGC PF 68 Ultra Cameo.
This is interesting. According to the NGC Census, there are 21 1993-S Thomas Jefferson Dollar Commemoratives graded PF 70 Ultra Cameo. Here are ten of them!
Take your pick. Here’s a 1999-D New Jersey Quarter graded NGC MS68. Or here’s both the 1999-P and 1999-D New Jersey Quarters graded NGC MS68 for a slightly lower bid.
That’s it for today!
