I don't think it's too bad. That said, I'd walk away from it for a couple days and then return to it for revisions. Try to see if you can combine...
I also agree with what Paul said. Additionally, if a coin has PVC residue (or glue on it, etc.), 100% pure acetone (NOT finger nail polish...
Hmm... interesting...
Let's see your impaired proofs! Yesterday I got this 2003 Missouri quarter in change, and I thought it'd be neat to see what kind of messed up...
The stars are actually able to do that as the die gets close to the end of its life. I'm going to lean towards it being real, but wait for others...
I agree with the O-101. Check out this website to confirm since you have the coin in hand @Profit man http://coinzip.com/bustieguide/
Cool find! I'd keep it regardless of what it's worth.
I've always wondered why the 1884-CC is so expensive, especially since there's a bunch (900,000?) of them that are uncirculated. You'd think that...
I agree that it would definitely be a good idea to post pictures of some of the ones you're considering sending in. Others may be able to notice...
Nice dollar! At first I thought the hair appeared too worn to be AU, but I found this NGC AU55 on eBay (link:...
You may want to consider removing this, since it probably constitutes self-promotion outside of the buy/sell area, which the moderators will get...
Your dime looks less worn than the AG03 example on PCGS's Photograde app. Since it's a rare date, that would increase its chances of coming back...
Hoover and Andrew Johnson wouldn't be my first choices to put on a coin. I bet >50% of the population doesn't even know they were presidents.
Interesting survey! I loved how they chose the 1909-O quarter as an alternate response for hard to find coins. It could very well be a hard to...
Cool reverse die cracks! It reminds me of the 1811 dime's reverse die that was absolutely killed by the end of its service.
Hot dog, I'm at 68%! Not sure what that means, but hey, I ain't complaining!
If any of you guys wants to fill my stocking next year, lemme know and I'll give you my mailing address! Nice coins indeed.
I've managed to do the same cherry pick twice: get 1818/5 quarters advertised as 1818's. One of them was in an NGC holder too. It's not too easy...
He also had it listed as being PCGS certified but that's gone now too.
Regardless of which method you try, it wouldn't hurt to put a variety of glues/tapes on a common $1 to experiment with and make sure your cleaning...
