I've only gotten the Cent Book from John D. Wright which I obtained after an evening with them. I suspect the double autograph of both John and...
Just be careful to note that edge dings can look like CUDs from typical photos. I've had several that fooled me until they could be inspected in...
Did either of you get this? Of course, it didn't stay cheap...unless it's a new variety.
Here is a more advanced die state which shows no reverse crack eliminating a die crack as the explanation for the reverse problem:...
It appears to have been a truly amazing show. Both the rare die State you picked up and the third NC-11 Jim Young has discovered including the...
This is an early die state of N-4 before the crack though 30 and into the right field. This eliminated a crack on the die as a possibility. The...
N-7 R2 The leaf under F extends well beyond F.
That would be amazing to have both a NC-11 AND this rare die state S-32. Any chance your pickup could have initiated the rumor?
Nice Die State Pickup. It matches the NC-11 die state.
I'm afraid this one had me stumped. The obverse looks like the N-6 (obverse 5) with the distinctive straight line from the tip of the crown to the...
I would probably consider it Details 4 Net 3 since the legends are complete and the rim is intact except where one can expect loss of detail due...
I believe AG is overused and had become synonymous with anything not damaged under G. I would call these B1 and Fr2 IF they can be attributed. But...
I like attributing so post till your hearts content. Now I also like to eat so I may be delayed by the pizza.
This is S-138 R1
I just added this Large Cent reference to my library. Looks interesting....
I concur with N-4 [3-D]. The curl extends left of the 0. Besides the other diagnostics, the N-11 Obverse 5 has a curl entirely over the 0.
I'm using the Cent Book andf it looks like Reverse D to me. My key diagnostic is the closeness of the final A to the right ribbon and the leaf tip...
I pretty much think identifiable R5 coins should have a floor of around $100, even with problems and escalate quickly from there. A problem free...
I'm bumping this up since it has some nice comparables for the S-195.
I think I finally got an R5 after a LONG dry spell where I'd been sniped repeatedly including a S-105 just minutes before this one. It is...
