Neither, but if I had to chose it would be the 53. Since I don't collect by variety it would not matter. For some reason the washed out look of...
Nice coin.
Louisville.
Wide AM's or close AM varieties don't exist in Kentucky either - at least I have not found one. Out of all my searching I have one Lincoln extra...
And just yesterday I was explaining to coworker why he did not want to spend pre-1970 kennedy halves. Good find.
Several good answers and I really like Pauls selling advice. At the same time you spend you should be investing(not in coins). So you spend $20...
Nice one. I think a 64, 65 if more luster. So another swag at a NGC coin.
Got out my guessing wheel and through a dart. Looks like lots of luster with little detail on Lincoln. Are the strikes on the 27-s typically...
Wow - I think this is the first time I got 2 right in a long time.
Good post. I think this is the key phrase - "you don't have to completely exclude all problem coins from your collection. The real key is to limit...

Can't see much, but that curl looks over the center of the 1 in 16. Looks more like an N-7, but just my swag.
Good reading - all of it. I think in the original post you should have included some of the other links first.
From looking at heritage auctions results I would not be surprised if they all ran more than a $100. On ebay they run from 125 to 299 each. Plus...
Yes - I believe at least fine details. I think the coin will be covered with a fine porosity on both sides. Honestly - I would never buy any...
Must be those with slow modems. :) These are nice, but I think it might be too much light. They do look washed out and I bet in hand several...
Hoping bad pictures in a older white NGC slab - I think those are the worst for trying to get pictures on for us non-experts. I am really hoping...
I waffled back and fourth for a while then went with 65 since it was ngc. :) Just hope that is in.
Nice pickups weasel.
When I first saw the title the first thing I though of was patience. Being patient enough to wait for the right coin. I will admit I bought...
