I disagree. I think yours has a vastly superior strike, and I think yours would accurately be graded VF-35. I think the other two would be...
Could you try taking some new pictures of it, both obverse and reverse? It really is impossible to tell you a grade based on this picture. I'll...
Why do you say that? I think it is quite attractive. I voted AU-53. That luster is gorgeous.
Gorgeous color on that coin, and the luster looks strong. It is not FSB. Based on the whispy marks I see I guessed 65, but I could easily see this...
I never knew him, but I thoroughly enjoyed looking at his collection. There were some amazing coins there!
I gotta say, these are incredibly difficult to grade. The super low relief makes all of the details look soft. I'm at 64 on this one, because I...
Nope, I think Meow did pretty well at $50. As others have said, I think that is probably more likely an MS-64 coin - but you paid an MS-64 price...
This is actually a really interesting question. I play on the Registry (NGC), but I'm not really shooting for top spots. I do enjoy watching my...
Yup, supply and demand. If there are 2 of a thing and 5 people want it, it will sell for a lot more than if there are 5 of the thing and 5 people...
Have to agree here, I'm not seeing the rub. I stand by my 61 guess. Pretty significant difference in value there... might be worth resubmitting.
How good is CoinTalk compared to the TPGs? Let's find out! Over the next several months, I'll be posting a Guess the Grade thread each week. I...
Will be posted Friday!
There are 3 people who voted AU-58. Can you explain what you see in the images, or what you are interpreting that makes you say that?
Take a look at the full slab pic. That major mark that everyone was keying on is nearly insignificant when you view it from a smaller...
Turns out this one was a little tougher than I thought. We had great participation with 44 guesses, and an average score of 63.43. This was 1.5...
While this is a quite attractive coin, you have to recognize that this is also an extreemly common coin, even in very high grades. The strike on...
Thank you very much. As a grader and collector who's opinion I respect very highly, this is extremely nice to hear.
I think many people are also more willing to just click a button than take the time to type a response and post. That's the key difference here -...
That got RB? Dang, I have some coins I need to submit for designation review....
Irregular shapes like this are standard for off-planchet strikes. It starts as a round planchet, but since the planchet is not large enough for...
