Oh, I see what you are doing. You are filtering "NGC Only" coins.... That doesn't really count. If you look at all sets, you are #43.
That shade of blue is highly suspect. I am not at all surprised it didn't CAC. Did they say why? Do you have better pictures of this one? I'm...
Can you show us a picture of the whole coin? If they are die polish lines (which, there is a good chance they are) getting another example has a...
The coin has almost certainly been cleaned. I'm sure there are some hairlines from circulation as well, but there are obvious signs of cleaning....
The Stone Mountain is neutral-negative. I don't find it attractive, and would avoid that coin (or sell it quickly if it was foist upon me). The...
Haha, of course for that one. I was referring to the one in the OP - which is considerably higher grade if genuine, but is also quite weakly struck.
When I said "good" I meant "authentic." Do you not think it is authentic? I am quite sure that it has been messed with.
I highly recommend getting a copy of the Red Book. This basic guide will give you all sorts of information about number minted, dates produced,...
To be fair, there are an equal number of buyers who don't know how to grade and think that a coin is worth what Red Book or PCGS say's its worth,...
A few years ago, I got a roll of the Alabama quarters when they first came out. There were half a dozen of the Cud 1 in there. I tried to sell a...
Also, what do you mean by "Top 20"? You are at rank 43, unless I'm mistaken (or you are referring to something else).
Congrats on the beautiful set! Who did your pictures? They are quite good. The Registry set is a fantastic way to show off your coins,...
I would love to see that set in person! I won't be there, however.
I don't really know much about patterns. Wouldn't it have been more well struck if it was a pattern? There is considerable weakness on the...
Grading Buffalos is tricky. Grading Buffalos from photos is even trickier. They are all just educated guesses, really.
If Conder says it's good, then I'll take it. Grade-wise, I'll wager EF+ details, with slight tampering.
Very nice. Time to "branch" out a little bit and get the rest of the trio ;)
You have to be careful with these: Your coin appears to be in a plastic holder of some sort. Often, the newsprint will be reflected off the...
On a coin of this grade, I think the clash sets it apart from the rest (and is pretty cool). It doesn't really change the value. On higher grade...
It appears to be an attractive, lightly circulated coin. I would grade it AU-58. These are relatively common, because many people saved them as...
