Well, @phankins11 , I guess that picture pretty much seals the conclusion. To the OP - welcome to CoinTalk, and it is too bad that your coin...
What are you seeing in the pictures that makes you guess AU?
ICG and ANACS are both second tier. They are not on the same level as PCGS and NGC. To address your questions: 1. The NGC price guide is...
Haha, that is briliant!
Pretty much all of my pictures get run through the shop... This one, however, is NOT photoshopped, except for a circle crop: [IMG]
The point of a "grading guarantee" is that the grade is guaranteed. The MS-70 coin is worth $X. If the MS-69 coin is worth $X - $200, and the coin...

That appears to be a beauty, zohar. Do you have a pic of the reverse?
This is a tough coin in high grades, especially with FBL. Your pictures are making it look dull, but if there is good luster in hand, I'll call it...
64+, with a shot at 65 on a good day. The luster is attractive, and the patina is original (and fairly neutral in terms of eye appeal). These are...
I know sometimes they are a bit lopsided, and that's natural. But dang, the right one (viewer's left) is a whole heckuva lot bigger than the left...

Well, congrats and good for you on finding an authentic one. In the forum's defense, we see 2-sided "coins" about 6 times a week. In all of my...
These photos are well above average, but there is plenty of room for improvement. My opinion: the images are overlit. There is zero contrast, and...
It isn't an error. It is an effect often seen on very late die states. The technical name for it is as you mentioned above, but it is known in...
I'll wait to get @messydesk to weigh in on it. He's the ultimate expert. But, it still looks fake to me.
The crack goes from the part of his hair to the back of his head. Its a fairly common place for cracks.
No. I'd say it's the finest graded example, and in hand I'm guessing the luster is dripping and the color is bold and beautiful. I'm guessing...
The 1299 10 Dirhams was graded MS-65. You can see the auction here:...
Yeah, that one sold at NYINC earlier this month. I bid on it, and bid very strongly. It just kept going up and up.... Pre-auction estimate was...
