Every modern coin gets a special label. Honestly it's time classic coins got some recognition from the TPGs. Special bust/seated label?
2017 cents have "P" mintmarks? I probably would have never found out because I live in Oregon.
The silly head is indefensible and should be in a problem holder. Being a Seated collector, I see tons of cleaned coins in straight slabs. And...
Honestly we should just stop making pennies for reasons stated above. Why even have two mints when half of the coins produced are pennies? They...
Readily available semi-key or the English penny with great eye appeal and history behind it... I'd take the penny in a heartbeat.
Usually dipped copper has a pinkish color to it.
No people, you clearly don't get it. MS-69 coins usually have one tiny tick keeping them back from MS-70. That IS the tiny tick. :joyful: If PCGS...
People above have already stated exactly why I dislike the top pop modern market.
Artificial without a doubt.
Sometimes a weak strike can be confused for wear. The flat area is a weak strike.
They do this, but not the 180th anniversary of Seated coinage. Don't worry, @Cascade, in 2018 you'll be in the same boat. On a side note, good...

It seems like a good deal for MS64, but it's a low 64 so I'd pass. If you pass on one of these coins, it won't be too hard to find another.
Can I see a picture of the coin? Does the coin appeal to you? Telling me the grade on the slab doesn't tell me much.
The position of the 1 and parts of the 8 relative to the denticles, as well as the bust, tell me that this is an 1868-S quarter eagle. This date...
Many collectors prize the old green holder. You should probably ask someone to send it in to CAC for you, as they will give stickers to accurately...
Wow! This is a very scarce coin that is not seen every day. PCGS estimates that about 113 exist. I would say around $3000 for this coin, maybe a...
