Why does it matter what PCGS would call it? PCGS also commonly calls corroded and green copper “BN”. :D The threshold between the color...
The 1883 nickels and 1913 nickels are TYPES not varieties. They are two different designs, intended by the mint, and issued in the same years....
How does PCGS slab that coin as problem free when it’s green!?!?
5.0
How on earth is that PCGS coin graded MS65? Looks all beat up! EDIT: It looks reasonable in TrueView, so maybe just bad pics. [IMG] @Zohar444...
Beautiful medal @yarm.
A small silver medal from the between war period, presidency of Von Hindenburg. I'm quite fond of the St. George and Dragon on the reverse....

The Air-Tite Y63 is ~5.5mm deep. That's quite generous in terms of high relief. If some of the relief areas of your medals extend above the rims...
Picked this up a few weeks ago. It's stainless steel, so extremely difficult to photograph (steel is so lustrous, the lighting is very...
LOVE that reverse design. These are very hard to find nice, so you got a nice one there! Congrats!
The ones in zinc and iron are very difficult to find in good condition. They rust and corrode very easily! :(
Overall a 4.5 for me. The reverse toning range is superb, but the spots of no toning are distracting. The obverse toning is lovely, but also...
:D
Mine doesn't have the hacked off nose. :cool:;)
I have one of these too, because of the horses. They generally come pretty nice. [IMG]
The reverse is very pretty, but as a whole I’d put the coin at a 3.6. I find the obverse unattractive.
Bill, you understood my point. It is not a problem free coin if it has even stable but old environmental damage.
The streaks on the deer token are not what I am worried about. Blow up the picture (click on it) and look at the area on the reverse at 8 o'clock...
This token is graded MS62BN, problem free. It is not problem free. Active green on both sides, and a huge corrosion spot on the reverse at 8...
