Scanners mostly create poor representations of coins. Go with a digital camera, and ask for tips on taking pictures.
He should be reported for poor picture taking. I think the rules are as plain as a 1922-No D Cent.
Maybe some will grade high, and would be worth much more?
I may reach this one day.

The coin cost me nothing, the cost of sending to PCGS $18.00 + $30.00=$48.00. If it comes back MS67 the value is $50, if MS68 $140.00. With the...
