I have to agree with @Beefer518 - I don't think most of these are planchet marks. I would not buy this coin, ever, much less at a 66 price. In...
About a VF-25, I think. Nice looking coin and a tougher date.
OK, I'll be the eBay dummy here. I did a search for Redlockcoin ang got no results. How do you find a specific vendor by name on eBay?
EM is Engraving Mark. On the lower coin, there is a mark just above the rightmost star ray that looks like a stray/erroneous engravers mark....
I gave it a 65 and even though I couldn't select it, a RB. Yes, it has some of the coloring you see in raw coins from MikesMountainValues, but...
Pre-Covid, I was attending my local coin club meeting and there is a point in the proceedings where the President asks new members and visitors to...

I've never heard of any of the gold ETFs indulging in coins or any physical gold for that matter. I thought they only dealt in gold futures and...
@kanga, another superb post of your type set. But you're killing me, I am so far behind you. I've been focusing on other sets but now I'll have...
I am pleased to be a genius goat. I am getting more of these GTGs correct or close than I was a year ago. Thanks for posting. The coin looks...
0.3 grams is 1.12% light. I don't know what the manufacturing tolerance was on Morgans but 1% light is fairly typical of well-worn coins. So, in...
When's the reveal? I need to see if I'm a genius or a goat! Seriously, I have worked hard to assimilate grading lessons from various resources,...
AU-53. It's a weak strike on the obverse from K10 to K5. The head, stars, foot show not much wear but mostly weak strike. There are numerous...
