Take a good look at Eduard's coin. See how it appears "bent" looking. That's because these coins were struck with a rocker press. They have a...
Meh. It's just a guess after all. :)
:bigeyes: :eek:
Having trouble gauging the coin from photos. If you wanna fight, Genuine-91 is my guess. If you don't, I'll guess 55. :) No idea on attribution.
Those coins aren't too badly priced. I'd like to think you can find a raw example for less at a larger show, and there is a relatively large...
FWIW, I spent $105 for this 63: [img][img] Paid a premium for the color (and likely the OGH as it was on a Teletrade auction). The point being,...
Depends on how the coin looks, but I'd estimate it would sell to a collector for roughly $75.
Here's another related point to this discussoin.... Dark coins are dark in most cases because the toning has eaten into and/or muted the luster...
Schatzy, I just looked through the first 200 jeffersons in the link you posted. I didn't see a single CuNi example that I would consider dark....

p.s. what about other series like roosies or franklins or jeffersons? I would expect Jeffersons to have the lowest % -- more because Cu-Ni is...
1935-D 25C MS67 PCGS Agreed, that's the coin Lehigh posted. 1950-S 25C MS67 PCGS. CAC Not even close to dark like the first coin, IMO. Eye...
Where the heck did this come from? Is that your wrapping paper? :) Happy Holidays!
Lehigh, I used to think you were cool....Mike (who hopes you don't expose me as a closet Ike collector) :D
Purple or blue?
Actually, it affects the"highest" part of the die, and the "lowest" part of the coin. ;)
The edges of the 83-cc sure are odd. Are the pictures in the thread accurate to the coin-in hand at 3 and 9 o'clock on both sides? Just...
Nice start!
I would give the coin a * at the 66 grade, but not the 67 grade because of the slight disturbance on Roosie's cheek. I like the coin at a regular...
