I'll say 65. Decent strike, but not FS, luster compromised a bit by toning, dies are shot. A few marks that make 66 a no-go.
That's the one I would recommend for an APS-C sensor, like the D5200. I shoot with a D610, which has a full-frame detector, and I use a 200 mm...
It's not for me, but as the other holed one in the thread sold for $360, it's for someone. I'm not a fan of buying problem "stop-gap" coins if I...
PR66BN (unless the image doesn't show up. Weird goings on with externally linked images.) [IMG] Trying this way: [IMG]
The clash will not be listed as a distinct VAM (typically a subvariety of one) unless lettering is transferred from one side to the other. If...
And since the buy price list says "No 1883 without cents wanted, or 1913", I would imagine this is a 1913 or 1914 printing. Also no mention of...
I imagine it's from earlier than the 1920s. There's no mention of the New Orleans mint being closed, but they do mention not wanting 1909 VDB...
Looks pretty much like it should. The sonic sealing process essentially melts the plastic and can cause artifacts like that. Maybe there's some...
You must have mistagged me. I don't have a 53 no arrows.
I wonder what they actually look like. He seems to be optimistic about the prices by an order of magnitude.
If it's the lot it appears to be, you won't. Next bid is $600 once you include the juice.
The "old holders are under-graded" bit is a myth. Yes, they are known to have undergraded coins as you say, but most of these have already been...
Sort of. The difference in density between .999 and .900 is 1.5%. Same weight and diameter will be possible if the new ones are 1.5% less thick...
Looks like a nice set! The weak link is the cent, which has a couple nasty spots on the obverse that would limit the grade to 64. The dime, if...

Always better to use light you can control.
Yeah, um, no. And the President isn't considered to be "ruling," rather "serving."
I remember a lot of such signs when I drove to visit the Gallery Mint Museum in Eureka Springs many years ago, to the point where I was surprised...
Not really. Tooled means you're moving metal around. A junk box large cent will offer the chance to see what happens when you try to remove crud...
