Here's mine. Doesn't look anything like what you're researching Jack. [ATTACH]
Wow! That's a fraught question. There are so many variables that might figure into a sensible answer. But here's a fundamental set of criteria...
here's some suggestions. I would say call before you go to make sure they are open and that if they require an appointment, you've done it. Have...
It appears to be N-15 according to my The Die Varieties of United States Large Cents 1840 - 1857, John R. Grellman, Jr., 2021 edition. Quoting:...
The thread title asked about "negativity" but the lead-in text to the poll asked about "attractiveness". Those can be and often are different...

Typical JW eye candy. I remember being at a EAC meeting at FUN a few years ago and no one had a presentation ready so up pops John with a thumb...
Larry shows his, I'll show mine. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Reasonable people can disagree on what constitutes a "type" and of course everyone is free to collect whatever and however they prefer. I...

The reverses are different too. Note the relation of the leaves to the S in the legend. If I have time tomorrow, I'll try to attribute them,...
Not as nice as Larry's but I still like it. [ATTACH]
Depends on why you're interested in it. If it's a date or die variety that you can't get elsewhere at a price you are willing to pay, then you...
MS-64 BN. I don't see any rub on this coin and the nicks on Liberty's cheek are all that keep it from 65. Some strike weakness or a case of die...
That's a sweet half cent! But I have to agree with ICG and NGC that it's a brown.
I think for type sets condition should be the sole rating condition. If someone wants to use rarity as a point-setter, then the appropriate...
Back in October when this coin was first posted by the OP, I just wasn't willing to call it an early state of the retained cud (3.5) although it...
Not a coin but rather a car part. Tracking showed it delivered into my residential mailbox on Wednesday last week. I saw the delivery and...
