I debated between MS and AU; it appears there is some wear and it looks to be an older holder, so I'm saying an attractive AU 58.
Some might recall my box of 20 threads; I like to mix it up and have a little of everything as opposed to sticking to one series. I know it is...
I was thinking AU 55 before seeing the reveal. If the luster isn't strong (like you mentioned), that might be the reason for lowering the grade...
If it's the same seller and they have good feedback, I'd be inclined to believe it was either a glitch or accidentally listing the same coin...
F15 ...nice circulated half!
I think 5 FS ...the 6th step fuses into the 5th so I think it misses 6fs
I still have 3 PCGS vouchers to use before the end of the year and am not looking forward to the wait. :banghead::banghead::banghead:
PCGS for a while only allowed authorized dealers to submit (collectors had to submit through one of those dealers). I think that limits the...
66 star (not FS)....the luster and color give it the star; it's fairly clean; the area under the third column prevents 5FS
I'm between a 62 and 63...will give it the benefit and say 63
This is what I was thinking too, so I'll just quote your wise words for all to read again. :D
It looks sharp but I fear that the photo is obscuring either a cleaning or whizzing. So my guess is AU Details.
PR 64 …I thought it might be a business strike prooflike at first but think the rims and details make it more likely to be a proof
While many monsters are higher grades, they don't technically need to be a 64. There are monsters at lower grades too (the higher the grade the...
Here is a thread that covers them https://forums.collectors.com/discussion/852452/hannes-tulving-slabs
It is a nice toner in an older holder-both of which are big pluses! I would call it a mid level toner based on what I see from the one photo.
I was going to let this thread disappear into the ether but @Sunflower_Coins liked my post, so I figured I'd see if I'm the only one silly enough...
A big congrats! And now on to the next twenty!
MS 62....luster looks solid but a few too many hits to go higher (the luster could have pushed it up to 63 but I'm staying conservative in my guess).
This lovely toned 1904-O downgraded from a 64 to a 63. :banghead::banghead::banghead: It was one of the coins from show grading where I needed to...
