The luster isn't great. I have already sent it back to him, as I paid 750 for it, and i'm not up for gambling with several hundred. His original...
The first one is definitely pl, and most likely DMPL, but it's hard to see the luster from the pictures (scanner) . I can see a ruler's markings...
I think the first is a 63, and the second a 58.
I think you guys are underestimating the second as it's an O. But I'll wait and see some other opinions.

Hey speedy, You forgot to mention that your proof 67 deep cameo coin is a nickel in the listing. Just giving you a heads up, as usually when I...
Here is an 1894-o that was posted in another thread, but those were the sellers pictures, and not as detailed, as well as a 78-s. The 78-s...

AU is about uncirculated. Light traces of wear on the coin. PVC is polyvinylchloride (-CH2-CHCl-)n people used to (and still do) put their...
I think it's nice, but personally, I prefer the designs on coins from the late 1800's to early 1900's. If they started making barber coins again,...
Thanks for the explanation! I can see what you mean now that it has been pointed out. It's a shame that anyone would take a problem coin and...
regardless of authenticity, it is neat!
Ignore PCGS values. I've never ONCE seen a go sell for as much as they list their price at. I do use it often though, with the assumption that the...
Lol, great question! If it's not a joke, he must have never heard of a VAM, and if he ever does, he just may be embarrassed! :eek:
I'm certainly not disagreeing with you, but I was wondering what made you believe it suffered corrosion? I'm still new to spotting many of the...
