I try to always use the plus in my evaluations as an indication I believe it’s strong for the grade or would CAC.
66
66+
I like number 2 better. I think #1 is a 66 for luster and strike. I think #2 is a 65 and being punished for strike weakness and what may be some...
65+
Tough one. I really like both. I like the surfaces and luster of number 1 more. The strike and proof like wins me over on number 2. When...
5.5 for me. I think this one being a 63 keeps it lower on the scale. This coin in 65 would be a 6 in my eyes because the color would shine through...
67 for me. I think it will miss the star but will earn a 67 for the clean surfaces, luster, color, and eye appeal.
2 & 2.5
I cannot confirm the DDO or the FS. The steps do look very well struck with clear separation on each step. Under column 3 is the only part of the...
Thanks for sharing the full coin and date. I am sure you looked at the tru views of the other FS and non FS of this date. I don’t see any reason...
6.3
Easy 5 for me. I’d go as high as 5.5. I also would like to see the IHC with a different lighting. Often these look way different in axial vs...
Here are plenty of examples of 5FS coins certified by PCGS. Each of them with similar bridging of steps, contact marks, etc. Most of them with...
I’m going against the majority of the group. I think the coin is a 5FS coin. There is bridging of the 5th and 6th steps under each column. The...
I’m at a 3 on the nickel. These proof Jefferson’s do have some really deep colors but to me it’s mostly monochromatic. I’m sure it’s intense in...
Following this to see what the experts say. This one seems interesting.
EF-AU details would be my guess. Seems to have the color of a cleaned copper. Coin still has lots of detail and seems to be a great type set coin...
Definitely a 5 for me on the cent. If this exact toning were on a Morgan it would be an easy 5 and worthy of a star and everybody would be like...
I think the CAC absolutely helps it. PCGS Census: 68 = 212 68+ = 15 69 = 3 NGC Census: 68 = 100 68 + = 7 68 * = 16 68+* = 3 69 = 1 I believe...
