Pictures are needed. Otherwise this is all just speculation. As 19Lyds said, common commemorative are rarely faked. It's not like they're very...
Go for it! These early Lincolns are some of the prettiest of the series. Your goal is actually quite challenging. I'll bet the hardest ones are...
Exactly. Well said. Lance.
Probably spooned or tumbled in a dryer. Lance.
Here's a '26-D PCGS 64RD, FWIW. Lance. [IMG][IMG]
Okay, let's do it with Peace dollars. New game thread started. Lance.
You just proved it. Or at least proved we're on the same page. I did resubmit that '26-D. I figured it wasn't smart financially because it would...
The challenge here is to put the Peace dollars in grade order. Let's go from best to worst. So, cite the date for the MS67, then MS66, ..., MS63....
