    I had so much difficulty trying to get the correct look, on this coin.
    Well, here it is. 3 looks on this one.

    ksmooter61 Scary ghost - BOO!

    MS-65 I don't think FB, looks like a break on the bottom ones.

    I'm kind of thinking MS64. Difficult to grade w/o being in hand because of the toning.

    I get it, these Anacs slabs are terrible, mostly the modern yeller' slabs. Or, most likely I am out of practice. I am real tempted to crack them.

    I'd consult the "boss" on that idea. :rolleyes:
    And please don't crack. :D

    They are the most colorful and lustrous of Rosies I have ever bought.

    OK, but be careful when your "a crakin'". Don't want to damage the coins. 1st Pic looks the best.

    MS66, not FB. Hard to tell because of the toning.

    I usually use a band saw, clean and effective.

    Do you have a small bar clamp. I have heard that pressure from all ends breaks the plastic at the weld. PS I haven't tried it yet.

    No. But my wife probably does. She fancies herself as a chef and a construction artiste'. :D We are like oil and water, it cracks me up, even though she was in corporate finance too. I use channel locks, a hammer, and a flat bar to crack them out. :eek::D

    I inherited from a Neighbor this 1930's Craftsman bandsaw. We use it for slabs and cutting some limbs for the BBQ.

    WoW! It's in great shape too. Reminds me of one I used in wood shop. Was there ever a safety guard ?
