I received this coin this afternoon and was pleasantly surprised to find it had Edge V, the partially reeded edge, rather than the typical edge IV...
A new 1797. Moderate Environmental Damage and a punch on the reverse at the ribbon knot, but good detail other than where axial misalignment is...
It appears to be an S-21 which has been HOBOed or reworked around the chin making it witch-like in appearance. I know I've seen something on this...
Good for the seller, bad for the bargain hunter.
It is not difficult to become better at judging coins than commercial slabbers. I suggest doing that and buy the coins, not the slabs.
The operative word is YET! It's standards have declined significantly in recent years as they have chased the slab market rather than the...

Both Morgan Dollars and Walking Liberty Halves have been favorites for many years. You should be able to find them readily. Determine what you...
Common variety with granularity, some damage but VF detail. It all depends on whether you find someone who will pay for detail and overlook the...
I got it this evening. I feel sure it is the S-98 rather than the s-97 with the 1 too far left of the Hair/Shoulder intersection and the 6 too low...
I'm coming up with the S-110. Check out the location of the right ribbon on the reverse relative to the fraction bar and right 0. Then look at...
Nice S-97. It's funny but I've got my eye on a S-98 which is misattributed as a S-97.
