There is *way* too much light on the coin in those original pics. Try taking some more pics with less light, so that we can see the "chocolate"...
When you say it "looks ligit" (legit), what do you mean exactly? Yeah, it is a counterstamp. It is damage. Unless you know who punched or why,...
When you have a countermark, especially one as bold as these, you have to have something on the opposite side to give resistance. I think the...
I think what you are really trying to ask is, "What is an average Uncirculated Coin probably going to grade?" I'm going to take this from the...
Hahaha, that was amusing.
That is a worthy first coin for your set. Are you guys going to try to get mostly FBL's? Or are you shooting for a certain grade? What is your...
The grade really doesn't matter. What matters is the extensive amount of verdigris covering both sides of the coin. I'm kinda surprised they...
I agree on all points. AU business strike, polished and artificially toned.
Is it possible to show us a better lit picture of the obverse? The reverse is clearly, no-question NT, but I'm not sure what I'm seeing on the...
Three steps: 1. Scan them into your computer. 2. Upload the scans to the Newman Numismatic Portal, if they aren't already there. 3. Send...
Try using a $2 bill. You might get arrested for passing counterfeit currency.
I will say, for comparison sake, the Franklin I show below is graded 65FBL. Yours has a decent strike (Pass and Stow are clearly visible, but the...
Looks quite original, but like most "key dates" its overgraded by a grade or two. Are you collecting Washington quarters, or did you just want...
Alright, today I am going to offer an entire beginner's coin collection. One lot takes it all. This would make an *amazing* gift for a beginner, a...
NTC is a scam. Avoid unless you can see it in hand and are confident in your own grading skills.
That is a $10,000 coin, and you're going to purchase it raw from some pictures on the internet? And you're asking a bunch of random strangers for...
If I HAD to pick one, it would be the Nuremburg jeton. But honestly, for a "box of 20" type coin, none of these are worthy. I voted to save your...
Woof. I'm going to disagree. That's a barf of cliches, random text, janky angles, and ugly design. I'm actually legitimately ashamed that the Mint...
That is the one I suspected you were thinking. It is not actually clipped - it is stained or toned. If you look closely, you can see that the coin...
Wow. Each one of those is impressive!
