Dealers, and numismatists, lend your eyes on this photo, albeit, blurry, hopefully, more clearer ones soon. I am keeping the owner anonymous...
Wow. Thanks. Good to know it's possibly original. Still dunno, bout bidding yet.
everything could be wrong with this coin. however I just received a $0.03 piece that the sellers photos did it no justice, and it looks way...
you are correct. I have not seen a lot of terminally black coins. my question is how would this affect the value of a coin like this provided it...
this toning? It's awful black. It's on the bay. It's a semi key date. What would cause such toning? I've never seen a coin almost black from...
Maybe Mary Todd Lincoln on the cent for one year would have been at least a true effort. Mr. Carr how about a token cent depicting M.T.L.?

I don't think it was.
Could be, but if they ( PCGS) allows room for huge gouges on coins. See my 1899 VF 20 BQ in New Acquisitions, I think this coin will pass.
I'm not chasing a grade, just thought we could use it as an example. I plan to pass this coin on, so I have no idea who will see it when I'm long...
I get your point. But a coin like this I'll grade. Going into the collection. I have few graded pieces.
I propose that we use my current coin purchase as a test grading example. For now I only have the sellers pictures. When the coin arrives in...
There have been lazy mint employees in the past. But, you're right, would be difficult to make that mistake with the mm on the die itself.
I first saw this 1895 Barber proof quarter on eBay for $895. the seller had it for sale for about a month with nobody buying it on the BIN. He...

Spending other people's money is how the rich got away with it. :p. J/K Seriously though, 1000 pages. Sweet.
