I'm new to this thread. Is there a format where only one coin/holder is posted at a time until the price is guessed?
They look good to me. At least nothing jumps out at me as Fake. But I don't know if they're attributable. The second one may be.
OK. No Hints. I just want to see what others come up with. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
If damage is unique, then PMD seems most likely. If two or more coins show the same thing, then foreign matter stuck to the die seems more likely....
Now to the other end of the spectrum. This is a common S-220. But I can't see either obverse or reverse die crack usually seen. Breen describes...
I'm going to have to wait a bit to see if this one is S-240 State III - common, or IV - rare. The photos by the seller are just too fuzzy, but the...
OK! Time to cross over one from the 'Attribute This' Thread. This was purchased for $33. I got it for it's die State, a minimum of Die State VI...
It's a matter of how much of the die sinks. If it's a small portion of the die, it appears as a raised area on the coin. But if it's massive, say...
This is a third example of the above without the "damage" behind the ear: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] It also shows bolder clashes below the hair ribbons...
It is possible I'm seeing something behind the ear on the second coin that can be explained by pitting, but the die could collapse except for the...

Moved from the under $50 thread where I inadvertently posted this: I just spotted two very similar, but different coins. Could the similarities...
I just spotted two very similar, but different coins. Could the similarities indicate that what was considered post mint damage might have been...
Perhaps the exception that makes the rule.
I'm trying to figure out if it's the latest state I've seen or I'm picking up a second strike. The CUD break over ST extends to the left of the...
1794. The reverse is easy. the obverse was a bit challenging and I checked the hair gaps. But finding a portion of a known die break gave me...
Jack tells me they haven't identified a fake S-95 yet. But who knows what tomorrow will bring? I've picked up five S-95s in just over a year, but...
I've been specializing in Early Date Large Cents for almost fifty years. I have my "Penny Whimsy" - 1976 reprint of 1958 copyright - from William...
To be honest, I can't even tell the difference on the MS examples on Heritage Auction Archives. Here are the diagnostics mentioned in Noyes, but...
