You're right of course, there is that. But in the case of that particular coin, no lighting would have made it look lime green. The pic was...
There's really nothing more subjective than human aesthetics. I like the IHC - it has a story to tell concerning its journey to the depths of the...
I love the LRBs that are struck on oversize flans as you get the complete details of the coin. And that one is well-struck with beautiful, smooth...
Great collection Steve! I love those old Library of Coins albums.

First of all, this isn't a complaint - just an observation. But I've received three coins now in which the seller's pictures were considerably...
It would seem the attribution is correct. ERIC lists the obverse legend as #3, although the word FEL on your coin confuses me: the F is closed and...
They're quite beautiful! Are you a designer for a mint?
Has PCGS designated any Kennedys PL? I'm not saying they haven't, but I've never seen one. I've seen a few from NGC. I give that coin a 65.
