I have wrestled with this coin last night and again this morning and I am changing my mind. I don't think it's a proof but rather the Obverse 6,...
Well, some proofs just survived in greater quantities than High MS business strikes. The reason why is obvious. Plus, to @johnmilton 's point,...
Now, that's what I call a solid mandate! Dinner's up so I'll wait for an hour or so.
I posted earlier that I believed it is a proof and that was based only upon looking at the OP's photos of the coin. I have since looked at it...
I tried cotton gloves for a while and found they made me even more clumsy than my natural dis-talents (love to make up words). After some...
1892: MS-64. Just can't get it to 65 no matter how I squinch my eyes. 1909: MS-63, just too many marks in focal areas on both sides (cheek,...
I agree. I think it's a proof. 600 minted.
These USB cameras usually come with a LED ring light. The Morgan looks like it was shot with that ring light. Mine has a dimmer on it but it...
Thanks everyone for your confirmation of the die marriage. It is a pretty little coin despite the 62 grade. Lots of luster.
@Inspector43 reminded me that I didn't actually address the OP's question. IMO, the chop marked Trade Dollar market is a small niche market where...
Could be flow lines but you usually see those between the stars and rim. Maybe someone who knows more than me (that would be just about everyone)...
Thanks @lordmarcovan. Here's something you probably are expert at, though. Look at the field in front of Liberty's face. Not a clash. Looks...
A seller can make any claim in his marketing that he wants - doesn't make it valid. I would run away from this fast but then I'm not a collector...
Even if genuine, it's not a coin you want and the seller's "attic find" label is a warning. If genuine, it will probably get two doses of details...
66. Very nice coin.
Fascinating. Thanks for sharing.
I just picked up this 1832 and it looks like an LM-4 to me. Obv. 3 and Rev. R. Attributed from Logan-McCloskey. I'm just a bit uncertain with...
No question the reverse strike is mushy but I still see rub in several areas as shown in reverse blow-ups below. Not real obvious but I think...
I am assuming that your Amazon search resulted in USB-type cameras. Do a search on "USB Microscopes" or "USB cameras" in the "Coin Chat" forum....
Separate names with a comma.
