A relatively quick way to get your coin and claim in front of a very knowledgeable audience is to write up your findings with first-rate photos...
@ToughCOINS I hope that wasn't your shipment. But to a prior poster's comment about the value of the shipment, this kind of coin shipment is not...
I understand exactly what you've gone through. Been there myself. When I approach a dealer, invariably the dealer will ask "What are you looking...
As @physics-fan3.14 already knows, his coin reflects all of the Very Late Die State (VLDS) characteristics described in Dick Graham's. I don't...

I wasn't going to opine because of the poor photos plus I'm dealing with a leaky clothes washer right now. But, since you asked I'll venture 64...
It looks like the C-1 to my untutored eye. What gave it away?
You are correct. There is nowhere near the interest in the Reeded Edge half dollars as there is in the Lettered Edge coins, especially the Capped...
Nice overdate. Yours is the B-1 die marriage, R-2. The obverse was repunched from the 1805 B-4. The reverse was used for the 1805 B-4 and also...
I don't see why PCGS gave this a grade of 40. The new photo shows much better color than the yellow tint of the earliest photos. And both sides...
I like the coin although I can see where some folks might not like the degree of toning. Also makes estimation of luster difficult on top of...
Not yet. I did compare the diameters I needed and it looks like the only ones that will fit the raw coins I want to self-slab with these are the...
Here's mine. I would appreciate opinions on my assigned grades for the raw coins. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Anyone tried the Defender self slabs that Coin Supply Express flogged to me in an email? Opinions? They only make them to fit modern diameters...
Just bought it off Amazon to fill a huge hole in my library reference material. Thanks for the tip.
I believe this coin is undergraded at 64. I've seen many worse in 65 holders. This one is so much nicer. If mine, I think I'd send it to CAC...
Then I'm in at 65 BN. It just doesn't have quite enough to make to RB, IMO. It's a very nice coin.
I'm going with MS-64 BN. I'd have called it 65 except for that "something" at A3 on the reverse. I downloaded and blew it up but still couldn't...
My LCC has two meetings a month and we usually have a presentation at the second meeting. We allocate about 15 minutes for the presentations...
Thanks. I was looking for the coconut filling.
