It was actually a coin I was referred to that was for sale on Great Collections. I do not yet have a 1945 S MS66 at full steps. I posted that to...
Do you think this is PMD?
Thanks everyone. I decided to pass on the original coin posted. I will pay a little more for one that unquestionably has no marks on the steps....
Hmmm. If any interruption in the steps leads it to then not be a true full step, how did 2 different companies give it that designation when...
Ok. I found this NGC example on ebay labeled as MS66FS. (I don't want to buy it, but just trying to compare to the original one I posted.) There...
Well, it is slabbed as FS. But thanks for the remarks. I kind of thought the same thing about whether or not it should be FS
Actually I don't have this coin yet. A friend of mine sent it to me and said it is available. Just not sure about that mark on the Monticello...

I hope so. I'm trying and learning so much here. And it is nice that people are polite when they disagree. It is what keeps me coming back and why...
I am guilty, Mr. Bellman! I love shows! I love meeting people and finding out what they collect and why. I like seeing everything from visitors...
I guess I just don't understand how they would even begin to assess its value. For example, why $7,000 and not $100,000 if it is a one of a kind?...
Has the Mint realized this? Is there new packaging to fix this? (Why do I get the feeling I am going to be laughed out of this thread by asking?)
I can't argue his credentials and I know who he is. But, just because someone has a good reputation in this esoteric field, it doesn't mean a...
I guess I will collect them in slabs. Sounds like a pain to have to get them cleaned. Can't always be a purist and I'm okay with that
The problem I find is that I actually like having them in the original packaging with all the COAs and boxes and stuff. I normally only see them...
Sorry, my friend. I have to agree it is not a full-stepper
