That's a beautiful 22-D! Love the colors! Hard to say the grade, depends on NGC's mood that day.
Very harsh grade, decent luster and virtually hit-free. I guess they penalized for the obverse spots (small) and the poorly struck right...
I knew there was a chance they'd bump it to 65.....arrrgggg...hardly a hit on it but the luster is lacking.
Cool find!
Oil is BARELY soluble in acetone. It is not a good solvent choice for the removal of oil. Xylene is a much better option so you cannot say that...
Greater beard detail can be found on the 22-D but it's fairly rare. I'm talking about the WHOLE coin, all design points, obverse and reverse.
Congrats! The first one is always exciting!
1922-D trumps the 24-S, after that the 25-S, then the 26-S IMO. Some of the D mints are also close competition.

Man, you ruined another thread eyeeat! I thought we had this dicussion? Remember, the vast majority of vistors to the forum are using IE and the...
Do a search for Charmy's thread on buying....some good stuff in there and it give you the dealers perspective.
Most dealers don't accept plastic, don't bother with it. For the best deal use CASH only as most dealers will ask if you're using cash before they...
You should have cashed in the silver and used the money toward a nicer VDB. These are pretty cheap in red MS grades. I don't find your VDB...
You're looking for two very specific things. It will be an easy but labor intensive path. Buy the appropriate CDN for those coins and bring it...
HAHAHAHAHA....nice side-track night! :D
* Naked eye, tilt - twist, get some different light views on the surface, filp and repeat. With enough practice you'll arrive at the grade in a...
Oh...the real question is how did you train them so well to buy such nice stuff. What usually happens is you hear the story where they gift a...
WHOA! You lucky dog...that's one heck of a day! :D Love the rainbow dime from Mark! NICE!
