    Fully struck Walkers also have Full Heads noted -- but not on slabs.
    Buffs have Full Rounded Horns and Split Tails, but again not on slabs.
    As for Wash Quarters I don't recall ever hearing anything.

    What a joke (not that I believe CAC to be much better). Have you seen MAC stickerd coins at shows? I haven't yet

    Sometimes I think Morgans ought to have a "no die cracks" or "no clashing" superlative. :)

    I chuckled when I saw their "full split tail" designation for buffalo nickels. I could understand a full tail designation, but I'm not really sure how a buffalo's tail could have a split in it....

    No just on eBay with RIDICULOUS PRICES. The one guy(forgot his username) seems to have alot of them. I remember asking him why the prices are so high. He told me they are mac'd and go by their pricing. The coin in question was a 1945 mercury dime with 90%fb sticker with a price tag of 2k. Rather funny. Would like to see some of these people in person and want to know what is going on through their heads when they put those astronomical prices.

    I believe that IHC's have a designation in this way... is it "Full headband"?

    Snerk. 1945's with "90%" FB are cheap and relatively common coins. It's the addition of that last 10% which makes them pricey. :)

    Full Beard?

    All of these monikers are way overstated, tho I do like the Red Book designation. All this stuff is just another way of squeezing an extra buck out of the collector, just like "CAC" or "First Strike." On any coin with an intricate design, such as a Buffalo nickel or a Standing Liberty quarter, it takes much more than one or two small design elements to make the coin desirable from a standpoint of the strike. I don't understand the huge premium paid for a full head SLQ when, at the same time, a third of the shield is missing

    I believe MAC is just ACG resurrected. We all know how much legitimacy ACG has.
