Sure is. The thread title doesn't say anything about which obverses are terrible on coins with good reverses though. ;)
The Sacagawea dollars have always underwhelmed me. There was a chance to make a radical statement about inclusiveness on coins, and it came out...
I do like the eagle too. The high relief feathers really pop, although the Aussies beat us to the design with some of their high relief falcon 5oz...
Seems a bit reminiscent of the Peace dollar & the $10 gold piece design. I like the fusion of the two styles - kind of art deco, with a hint of...
45, including 10 I submitted myself (to ANACS). Mostly PCGS, some NGC. About half of what I own are medals or so-called dollars. I'm not...
Just got mine in the mail today. She's a beaut, but I haven't seen much about this piece online or at my coin club. The depth of the relief is...
After thinking on it, there is probably not a partial refund that the seller could offer me that I'd be happy with (as the coin just has too much...
That's basically how I missed it too. Read a "[has] not [been]" where there wasn't one.
That's pretty much where I'm at. I'm emphasizing the poor packaging in my email to them and including side-by-side pictures (theirs and mine). I...

Hear, hear. There's not a lot to go on.
I recently picked up an 1880-S that was described as a raw "UNC GEM MS+++" and, now that I have it in hand, I'm thinking that their pictures...
Any other thoughts?
I was guessing 63+. I may have been a bit harsh grading some of my Peace Dollars. The marks on the obverse cheek didn't bring down the grade?
Hmm. I hadn't thought about searching French overseas possessions like Algeria. During the world wars, many of those departments likely issued...
Proven fact? I hope someone is filtering your internet searches... ;) It seemed like a valid theory to me. But, with tokens, unless there's a...
This Morgan has seen some rough years (well, decades), but I took a look under the O mint mark just to be sure. This was the year that the Carson...
Well, lordmarcovan seems to have beat me to this particular piece. But I'm certainly picking up a few others. "Junk bins" can be quite...
That attitude is why some extremely rare & eye-pleasing exonumia is available for a fraction of the cost of younger, more common, and just plain...
