Speedy, Jeff seems to get all his coins in PCI slabs, as they label non-cam coins as deep cam (IMO). He then turns up the contrast on his camera...
As far as US coins go, my knowledge is most limited in the early copper era. Most cents I see are heavily corroded, or the planchets are terrible....
Airedale, just a guess, but is it in a pci slab sold on ebay from jeff wherlin, aka JWCAMEO? I feel I can recognize his photos instantly, but I...
I personally feel that is the case.
I believe it is real. Some of these have thicker digits, but the difference is not even close to dramatic as this one, after looking over some...
A clamshell if I recall correctly is when a layer of metal partially seperates from the rest of the coin. If you pulled it up, it would probably...
Looks genuine to me. A small minority of them have very thick digits for some reason, and this is one of them IMO. To be sure I am going to do a...
I have an 1885-cc that is a lock 64+. After looking at the hot 50 guide, I took a look at mine, and sure enough it is a vam-4. It has a doubled...

That is what I picked up on. The reverse looks like a 63, but the obverse is just flat and dull like you said. It's always a shame to see a...

I was definitely too high on this one, especially considering the evident wear on the head and the eagle. I think NGC got the grade right on this...
Looks like a 53 to me.
Even if that is post mint damage, it is very, very cool!
I was quite surprised with how small one billion stacked pennies actually is.
