Let's keep it limited to being at least "related" to coins, shall we. And to answer your question Tyler, we have more lady members than you can...
When the forum was still young we used an entirely different software program. And back then it didn't allow us to do the same things that we can...
I certainly hope so because I've been saying the same thing all along.
The link for the pictures is Photobucket, and it can be somewhat problematic at times. So if you can't get the pics to open, I'll post them here...
If you want to see high magnification pics of different kinds of luster read this thread -...
If that's what you think then you don't understand my comments at all. I would readily agree that coin is lustrous. I have never claimed that MDS...
That's because they just copy and paste from each other. Website after website does it, and they don't even bother to check if the info they are...
OK, I knew that method but was hoping you had figured out something easier. personally, I don't have the patience to do it that way. For Peter's...
Hmmmm - must be an echo in here :D

Nahhh, that's some kind of an ooooops caused by the software. That thread never existed until Jan 2006. If you'll look at Peter's profile page,...
No, you need to redefine your definition of luster. Every single coin struck with dies has luster when it leaves the dies, every single one. And...
Almost but not quite. There are several older than this one. You'll find that the first thread here was started by Peter, the site owner about a...
What are you missing ? Those things are not even coins. By the mint's own determination they are not coins, they are mistakes, screw ups, things...
No they aren't. And it's basically just common sense. Luster on a coin is created by metal flow. And it is visible because of two things,...
Completely untrue. An idea that has been discussed at length many times and proven to be false.
Not a one of those I posted links for even qualifies as being a coin, let alone mint state. And no mint state is not a grade, it is a condition,...
Are any of these what you would call mint state ?...
Separate names with a comma.
