In my opinion, this is a pretty severe exaggeration. Hence, my use of the word "hyperbole" above. However, I would not argue with a weakened...
Details grade makes it a VF-20. The net grade may be less in hand, but that's hard to tell from your pics. Less than a buck in value.
P.S.--If you're correct and it is original, it was a steal for $34.
The details are at least EF, and from your pics, I could make a case for AU. But I agree with Doug, about it looking cleaned. If you're...
As is often the case in this forum, I observe a lot of hyperbole, much of it negative, in this thread. Does Accugrade suck? Absolutely! But do...
"Start with the keys" is excellent advice, though I'm not sure that pondman's excellent post answered the original question.
Yeah, I hope he doesn't get a twitchy trigger finger when you're in there!
Yeah, the reverse (to the left of the numeral 2) looks a little rubbed more than "scrubbed," with a pencil eraser or something like that. Not...
Agree.
A good conversation with merit on both sides. As we used to say on another BB service many years ago, time to get out the lawn chairs and just...

P.S.--The Heritage archive prices are only valid for extremely high-grade coins, typically slabbed either by PCGS or NGC. If the original poster...
furham, you seem like a nice person, and it is not my desire to be contentious. And it was not my intent to tell anyone what their coin is worth,...
P.S.--I also found about 20 IHCs.
I have had similar results. From December, 2003 through January, 2005, realizing that "the year of the Lincoln cent" was coming soon and wanting...
You're factually correct, but what are the probabilities that one of these common dates would grade at MS-67 or 68, i.e., high enough to be a...
The Grey Sheet has PF-64 at $815, and their prices tend to be low, very low, on Seated dimes. I think you got it for a reasonable price. Not the...
I do think it was, at worst, a decent deal, and I have high standards, imo. However, I also think that the 1812 LC looks like it has surface...
Separate names with a comma.
