I think this will forever remain a mystery to me, soooo Alrighty then.:smile I'm sorry to have hammered on you Cringely. I kind of derailed my...
True, but PCGS seemed convinced it was authentic, which is why I'm being hopeful that they will back it with more than talk. I'm trying to be...
Well, though I'm in total disagreement with PCGS, it sounds like they may be willing to back it up, hopefully with a letter or financial...
Nope, sure didn't. I only got one picture from you, and the latest one you posted with the coin in the slab I posted up today for people to check...
Well, the slab doesn't look fake to me, but I'll wait for someone more knowlegable to comment on it. There is a good chance that PCGS just...
Marshal, that is one of the diagnostics. The broken beads you should be able to distinguish down to the FR02 level. I drew these up for comparison...

Usually, if there wasn't any obviously valuable coins in the lots, they bring between $115-$130. It would have gone for this except for that one...
I guess I could, but I doubt that he would care. He sells so many of these lots by the hoard. He probably thinks he made out pretty good on the...
Ebay lot. You can see it (upside down) in the first column, second row....
Alas, my fair maiden hath arrived. And she is quite "fair", wouldn't you agree?? I am 99.99% sure this is a 1916. All of the diagnostics match,...
Ok, I agree with you on that ANACS PR1. Definitely genuine. The raw one on Heritage referenced by swhuck(post #3) is the one that really bothered me.
Absolutely gorgeous set ksparrow! Way to go!!:hail:
I want to make sure we are looking at the same coin, because I see none of those diagnostics on this Heritage coin:...
Ok, I have to ask. I clicked on the link and the dateless SLQ does not match any of the diagnostics for a 1916 in my opinion. The shield rivet...
