Solid coin! Though, ANACS mirror-depth standards (as 6-7 inches qualifiying as "DMPL) aren't equivilant to that of PCGS's (8-12in.) or NGC's (I...
No. What you have here, sir, is a circulated example placed next to a mint-state example. Do you expect them to look the same?! :rolleyes: -Brian
Without viewing another comment, I can almost guarantee the coin'd get an F12 out at PC or NGC. Standards have really sunk over the course of...
Had to use the John, so... -Brian
You think? I'd sure love to see how it'd turn out! :) And why the price drop? Some "special" going on? $10 would be a steal! -Brian
Grabbed this for $10 at my shop. I've never sent any coins to Phil "TruView" Arnold at PCGS, but I feel this coin would be a good candidate. I'll...
Your coin does not resemble any Doubled Die Obverse listed for this date/MM. Strike Doubling. -Brian
Yup... It's a '92 WAM alright. :p -Brian
Having sold one of these a couple of months back, I can safely say what you have is one of many S/S varieties for this date/MM. With previous...
Sounds like your coin may be missing it's clad layering on the reverse... But, without some photos, we're not going to jump to any conclusions....
I'm certainly no gold-coinage expert, but I'd say the luster definitely supports a 62 much more than a 61. Not too sure how NGC's gold grading...
Not too sure, guys. Did y'all check out what the DDR #2 looks like? I wasn't able to find any photos online to provide in my response. -Brian
Looks like it was struck with old dies (nearly terminal). Notice how motto characters closest to the rim are obscured caused by stress in the...
Correct. Machine Doubling is also refered to as Strike Doubling. That's exactly what your first coin is, as already concluded. :) Your second...
The middle one ('83 I believe, if they're ordered by date) looks prooflike... Though, it may just be the obverse that has the "PL" surfaces. We'd...
It is a proof coin. What you may be thinking of are cameo proofs, where the bust (obv.) and eagle (rev.) are frosted and other devices/fields are...
AU-Details (Harshly Cleaned/Polished). Not even going to take a shot at the collector value because basically all of it's been destroyed. -Brian
How in the world is this coin an XF40?! :eek: :eek: :eek: The lowest grade I could ever imagine a coin like this being is XF45, but XF40 just...
Really like the '01-O, Mike! Great pick-ups! :) -Brian
I like the EOR toners. Really neat ones in that set, too. One of the better toned Roosie sets I've seen. Todd really brings the colors outta...
