Absolutely.
I've touched on this subject in other threads. Coin design is not just art . . . it is engineering as well. In this particular case, no...
I gave up on a set over one coin . . . and a coin which, in hindsight, I really should have bought. I was collecting proof 2 cent pieces, all in...
I'll be at table 1317.
Thank you for the education . . .
I would think that a better measure would be the holder of the most Best Answers. Unfortunately, not many posters even think to pick on Best...
While I don't see an obviously removed gate, I do see numerous raised pimples on the surface of the coin, which would correspond to lost medium in...

What am I looking forward to from the US Mint in 2016? . . . Fewer contrived rarities.
I'll be at FUN, but I think you meant your post for BigTee44.

I'm not sure I agree that Tru-View photos exaggerate the color . . . for example, my photos below of a coin I bought after PCGS had already graded...
I think I see 2 vertical folds in the bill (tri-folded, and more obvious on the back than the front) as well as 3 or 4 horizontal creases in each...
You need stronger shadows and contrast in your images . . . you should photo the coin instead of scanning it, which will permit you to tilt it...
