I agree with the XF-45, but wouldn't have argued much with AU-53 either. To me, there is a bit to much wear on the top of the hair line to go...
I have this set, but I can't say that any of these signatures do much for me though. It could be fun to put together a set of all of the mint...
Well I'm certainly no expert on these but I do own about a dozen of them and this one looks perfectly legitimate to me. Though the photos are...
I've always wondered the same thing. This cent has obviously been dipped or cleaned in the past, but I don't see any hairlines from cleaning, and...
If this is the best method, I think that I will leave my coppers brown.
I "corrected" my vote. If two other people correct their vote...

Now y'all are going to have a proof thread? I've already posted most of my old proofs a bunch of times and you're probably tired of seeing them. :(

Not really, the hits to the neck and cheek limit the grade to 62 for me, but that's a great score for twenty bucks. What was your grade, I hope...
I don't want to say yet, but really soon, within the next month.
Nice pickup for twenty bucks. I would call it a MS-62.
The 1794 SP-66, the SP-66 half disme, the SP-65 chain cent and the center counter stamped brasher. A couple of others have an argument as well.
I would never trade a sandwich for a hunk of metal if Armageddon comes, nor would I place a bet that any modern "instant rarity" from the mint...
What a cool coin. How many die marriages are known?
Late Walkers are pretty common in nice grades, but graded coins will always cost a premium. I feel that you can complete a set that goes back to...
That image really does the coin no justice, it is by far the strongest cartwheel that I've seen on an eighteenth century coin. The patina looks...
My dealer is better :)
I think the 1878-S trade dollar is authentic, but the rim bumps really hurt the value.
Somebody already has this in the works...
