I was close, but congrats to Calumsherwood as the winner!! PM me your address and come January 2nd, which will be the 30 day mark, I'll send you...
I would say 63, 64 & 64 respectively. Keep in mind I'm a Lincoln collector though, so I'm certainly no expert here.
Thanks Chris. Didn't mean for you to have to go to all that trouble, but I will be interested in hearing the answer.
Thanks Chris. Let's say they were grading an expensive key date coin; would they give it more attention than if it were cheap common date? I can...
I understand if they have the category that they have to pick a date, but why have the category to begin with? Why not price all coins the same...
I can also say for certainty that it wasn't struck through grease. It could be a struck though of another kind, or a planchet flaw, but I still...
Mecha- Do a search here for scopes and you'll find a lot of answers. One piece of advice that I can give you, even though I don't own a decent...
Looks like a lamination error which is a minor planchet flaw. This is a nice one though given the coin, and a nice find! It's not going to make...
One more question- Value? Who knows? A 66 might be worth $100 while a 67 could command $2000. Am I not asking them to basically assign a value?
I have a couple of questions regarding TPGs. 1. Why is it harder to grade a 1954 Lincoln than a 1955? A 1955 would cost me $12.50 with NGC, but...
Other than possibly strike(I'm not familiar with these) I can't figure out why that Maryland didn't hit 65.
Nice coins Green. I really like that R.I. So what are those? 65?
Great find NEV!

I'm a variety hunter and for me Ebay is perfect. I guess it depends on what you're buying. As Greg stated, you can get some steals on Ebay.
A nice find, but given that the rotation is minor along with it being THE key date coin, I don't think it's going to add any value.
Know a tiny amount about a lot of things and carry a Red Book. That seems to be the requisites for coin appraisers. I know some fine and...
I like that coin a lot, and my 1st thought was 64, but I have to be honest and say that when I saw those with a lot more knowledge than myself...
T- I can tell you that I shoot with a DSLR and I'm a decent photog. I own all the lighting; AB Flashes, softboxes, reflectors, etc...but I was...
Surely one of them is worthy a quirky collection. Remember this is not a serious collection, but just an odd-ball one.
