I agree completely. Its a learning curve. Once you realize its a PL or DMPL, you have to adjust your viewing of the photos. These coins, just like...
To me that is an above average 63, (guess my 63+ guess already was saying that).
Collecting dated coins by prime numbers......that is a new one. Coin collecting was just too "cool" for you, you had to throw in prime numbers...
Last I heard, the catch up rate applies until ALL income is taxed at the real highest rate. I know of people who do pay 35% of all their salary at...
Mr. Tepper now pays the same Fed income tax as all of us, he simply fled a state that tried to fleece him. You know something isn't right when...
I was aware of the "devilish details". I chose 35% because the 37% rate is the catchup to make all income 35% rate. I rounded for Medicare. And...
My view of high income individuals overall taxation: Fed - 35% State - 12% FICA - (soon to be if a party gets in) 7.65% - Currently around 2%...
Yeah, but not really PFA. Humans look at the eyes. Marks lower on her cheek not as much a distraction, though of course would be better if it was...

Remember, this is a tiny design element on a quarter. If they added stars it would be impossible for them to strike up. I think its a pretty good...

I see thirteen as well. I think the top edge you are counting as a stripe.
Wise sentiment. If you do not like/love a coin at first glance, it will never improve with owning it longer. My best acquisitions are those that...
I would be around aVF-VF. Its a nice coin. Any ancient in the VF range is a nice coin. I am glad to see conservative grading. NN always has "flat"...
Yeah. Once you have seen a few hundred original steel cents, the "reprocessed", (basically recoated), cents look like shiny paint was applied to...
Those premiums make me feel good about my holding. :)
They are all over strikes, or probably more properly double strikes. Anonymous files seem very susceptible to them, especially the reverses.
I think Wayne Sayles intro book on Byzantines is a good book for one reason. It explains the different intentions of the Byzantines versus the...
Dude, if you like errors, you will have a field day in Byzantine coins. Probably the most numerous and dramatic errors ever to occur to coins...
Nothing to add, I have always heard both used and most know either can be used to describe what you mean. Maybe its a geographic thing, uptight...
