Oh, and to be fair and accurate, NGC did not charge me for the pedigree fee. I was initially under the impression they had, since I did after all...
I don't recall saying that, but on this particular coin, due to my family connection to the Adams presidents, the pedigree was everything. If...

I wouldn't think so? I needed no photo documentation aside from a photocopy of the CNG listing that mentioned the pedigree to get that Julian II...
Certainly not rare with die rotation. But fun. And yes, they really cranked 'em out in '53.
Ditto, and LOL
Oops, I just noticed a goof on my templates. Skipped the Flying Eagle cent. And I just bought a holey EF example. Back to the drawing board, to...
