Bought this one raw off of one of the local bid boards awhile back... I thought it would grade at least MS65 and I just thought the color was really nice. Eventually decided to send it in for grading, even though I wasn't sure the value of the coin justified the costs of grading. But I figured while it was there, I'd get a TrueView photo as well... got it this week and it came back MS67 w/ an awesome job on the photo!!!

 

Thanks. :3

I'm not sure, I haven't taken it to a jeweler. But real or not, it's pretty and neat and remains one of my favorite pieces.

 

I picked this 1938-S up for $2.16. but why grade a Au coin.
was the 1st owner looking for a error? here the Photos,and what do you think???.:kewl:

 

Just keep buying those NGC pieces and leave all the OGH PCGS mercs to me please...

Newest addition to the pack... 66FB CAC'ed.

 

CAC just cost more 99% of the time.

Save money Don't buy a sticker" CAC "just make a coin price go up.
here a 1944-S MS-66FB+Pcgs But NO " CAC" sold Sunday 4/29/2012 for $49.00+BP:thumb:

Did I ask for your opinion on CAC? Or on my coin for that matter? No, I didn't. I was merely sharing a new addition.

Once you factor in HA.com's shipping, they sold for nearly the same price. Actually, IIRC, HA charges $6 for the first coin to ship, so that makes them dead on, as I paid $55 for this coin. I'm not even getting into the fact that my collection only consists of PCGS OGH Merc dimes, which that is not, or the fact that I think my coin is of superior quality to that coin as that coin you linked has some not-so-nice hits on Liberty's face and doesn't seem to have the luster that mine has, which is absolutely booming in-hand.

TLDR; Jello, shut up.

 

Freedom of speech I can say what I want to as long as I follow COINTALK rules.
I will not be told to shut up about my opinion of CAC.

 

That's great, but go spew it somewhere else. You insinuated that I was an idiot for paying more for a CAC'ed coin when I paid the same exact price as your given example. I think you owe me an apology.

 

while we're on this subject, can anyone tell me if this is a 42/41? Also look at reverse "unum" has broken second "u". Found this in a shotgun roll of indian head cents.

 

Damaged, worth melt, sorry.

 

Was this the one that was lost in the mail? Or thought was lost.. ?

 

Yep.

 

it was stolen out of my truck. backpack with mail and checkbook were recovered and in police evidence locker for 6 months. didnt get my laptop back though.

 

Here is one of two I found in a box of dimes, something I wasn't expecting.

 

He was asking me as evidenced by his quoting of my post...

 

Sorry, not a 42/1. Damaged date.
