I'll definately yield to Mike but not you Doug. :p This has all the hallmarks of a lamination peel.....and a nice example at that.
The best thing to do is shell out $50 for a nice one so you have a reference point. It's a good coin to own if you collect. It will always hold...
The lines don't go over the devices and don't appear to be incuse, die scratches/polish lines.
Lamination peel, you can see the flaw all the way across the obverse. EXCELLENT FIND! When the lamination is still retained like that, it adds...
That would be a mortal sin! Did I mention I hate Deller's basement brew?
Agree 100%, but then put the box into a ziplock bag with a nice red cent to absorb any hydrogen sulfide that might find it's way into the bag.
Gold is very inert. If it's AT, it's probably organic and could probably be removed with acetone and/or xylene. Why on earth didn't you submit it...
Thanks for the post Lance. That was a lot of fun! The 20 cent deception was surprizing! I agree with Rick on the IHC, the TPG's are crazy and I...

That would be a miracle! LOL I had to buy multiples and select from among them because many of these are dinged and spotted. These are relatively...
Agree Most of the older, toned proof copper seems to grade. NICE COIN CHARMY!
Without knowing this seller at all and looking at their auctions, I immediately thought this too. Then, check the bidders out....hahahaha...most...
Pure guesses, I don't collect these: Half - old cleaning, retoned.... still an amazing coin IHC -NICE! Should be slabbed unless they didn't like...
Finally completed! :cool:
Definately dipped but AT is trying to catch up. There are ridiculous numbers of AT coins being sold to the ignorant on ebay.
Dick, please change me to a 67....not sure how I voted 65! I must have been sleeping!
Please read the documentation: http://www.wizardcoinsupply.com/files/images/Verdi-Care-Instructions.pdf...
Thanksl....but out of the cellophane I fear it would be called AT....frustrating times we live in.
Cool coin....nice pics too Matt. I inherited my grandfather's collection. In it were many sealed boxes of proof and mint sets. They were in the...
Ok, send me all your stupid wheats so you can focus on the MS63-down collection. :D :D :D
