I picked up a lovely 1875 20 cent piece in an ICG holder. It was slabbed as "MS60 Details, damaged". The reverse has two crescents in the lower...
I'd forgotten about that one. Looks like there were 2.
1936 US Philippines Peso, with FDR & Quezon:...
Cool die break on that 1808! I've always thought the Liberty on the 19th century designs (pre-Morgan) was a bit frumpy and matronly. She seems...
I actually quite like the only obverse of a US coin showing a living (at the time) US President. Can you name it?

The Sacagawea dollars have always underwhelmed me. There was a chance to make a radical statement about inclusiveness on coins, and it came out...

45, including 10 I submitted myself (to ANACS). Mostly PCGS, some NGC. About half of what I own are medals or so-called dollars. I'm not...

That's basically how I missed it too. Read a "[has] not [been]" where there wasn't one.
That's pretty much where I'm at. I'm emphasizing the poor packaging in my email to them and including side-by-side pictures (theirs and mine). I...
Did not catch that note in their description. Certainly did not appear cleaned or toned based on their photos.
Hardly seems like the same coin. Here's why I'm crying "Foul!" [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Hear, hear. There's not a lot to go on.
I recently picked up an 1880-S that was described as a raw "UNC GEM MS+++" and, now that I have it in hand, I'm thinking that their pictures...
