Based on the images that coin is not FS, regardless of what NGC says. Not only is the gash under the 2nd pillar significant enough to preclude the...
I guessed 66 because I don't like the unappealing gunk at the base of Jefferson's bust. That small area may also be why no star...idk.
Or maybe Lehigh can convince you it is a die crack as I surmised. Lol...but I will give you that you only said "nearly certain"... :D
66 no FS...66 due to strike issues...
66 no FS (again) -- steps are bridged under the 3rd pillar
66 no FS
Obviously not FS. Looks like a 66 to me, and not enough pop for a star IMO. The line above the head into the hair (@rlm's cents called it a...
There was NO vitriol in my assessment that you were a vest-pocket dealer. I was simply saying that your decision on what to do likely varies...

I don't think that's the case. Some of the other recent GTG posts are liberally graded IMO. I don't think asking people to GTG implies that the...
My dear friend, I hope that you are not holding your breath.
Looks like an MS67 coin to me. And I like the toning.
Magically all of the hits and marks disappeared in the seller's images. ;) I'm glad you're happy...and I'm glad you saw the Heritage images...
Jason I have plenty experience interpreting images. This coin looks homely to me at best. I think the images were taken to expose the slab...
I'm not seeing the luster. Your pictures (which capture the slab quite nicely) make the coin look dull and lifeless (especially the reverse). I...
Funny hat time... [IMG]
Not that my opinion matters, but I was on the fence between XF45 and AU50. I think AU53 is generous...at least based on those images.
...waiting with bated breath for Doug's apology for being wrong....again... :rolleyes: It's like @physics-fan3.14 has to follow him around and...
