I just wanted to be sure before Freaky started boiling his whole collection. ;)
I would suggest that you stand 5' away from your monitor. It is a common mistake to overstate the impact of relatively tiny marks on the coin and...
p.s. for those of you looking for a quick lesson in spotting worked/conserved copper, take a close look at the before and after shots of the...
I have mixed feelings when I read threads like this. Part of me likes the results. Another part of me worries about the coin's future owner and...
p.s.s. why are you buying the coin? For type? If so, why pay the premium for the S mint? You'd get a heck of a lot more coin for $1600 in a P...

Looking at Heritage pop reports, they suggest PCGS does....
I'm fairly certain PCGS does as well. I seem to recall a forum friend that owns one. Hmmmm....
ddoomm? WWhhoo is that? I'm coming. Be afraid. :D
p.s. were they toned before you boiled them?
I concur. :( Regardless, they are pretty. :)
Is there a spot in Lincoln's hair? This round's photos made it particularly hard for me to guess the grade. I couldn't see a significant mark on...
65 RB all day long. :foot-mouth:
Cool coin. Liberty cap coins are neat even in basal state. Congrats on your NEWP! Now attribute it. ;)
