Mo' juice = mo' money. The question I have is whether or not the coin was returned when it didn't match the advertised vibrance.
I like the expanse of textile on the 85-O better, but the color on the 83-O is fantastic. The toning break on the 83-O does distract from it a...
A picture would help, but it sounds like one of the "7/0" B/A (7/8 TF) reverses. If it were a B2/B1, it would be cataloged as such, and not as a...
48 hours is probably the right amount of time for people to post observations and discussions before the answer is revealed. The signal-to-noise...
That's a 17 berry (D1) reverse. Not that PCGS or any other grading service can't get stuff like this wrong. I had to break it to them several...
Every Chapman proof I've looked at. Post yours.

You have the wrong reverse hub type. The Chapman proofs all have the D1 (17 berries) reverse while yours is a D2 (16 berries). Search Heritage...
OK, so I think I'm looking at some sort of pock marks in the field. Some are obvious hits from coins, but there are some that could be leftover...
The awareness ribbon 4 was used in the 15th century, and where coins are dated with Arabic numerals, you see it.
What about new designs of the classics, not just copies? Think Britannia. An 1895 Trade dollar would look perfectly at home next to the modern...
Thanks! Don't feel bad about Unicode. I found myself rather disappointed recently that not only is there no medieval 4 defined, but none of the...
"...A dozen quarters, halves, and dimes, but nothing new that's penny-al A shorter synonym would have been just sestercentennial."
Looks more like F than VG. The VAM 3 doesn't carry a premium over the normal mint mark, as it is the most common variety for the year. There was...
