Is it possible with your setup to tether your camera to your computer, and control it from there? That's what I do, and I find it vastly easier...
This seems perfectly reasonable to me. The dealer wants to buy what he knows he can sell, because he'll make a profit on it. He's there to make a...

Several comments: 1. Looking at the seller's pictures, it is clear that he is using a very yellow light, or has a significant problem with his...
I have no doubts about the authenticity of this piece (unless it is a high quality Chinese fake - which is absolutely possible). However, the...
I'd call the OP's coin an attractive slider. It looks properly graded at 58, based on those pictures.
Hmm... yes, now that I see the pictures, I agree that this is not significant enough to be designated as an error. This is a very small...
That is an approach I would STRONGLY advise against. You may have had success with it in the past, but for most people, they will wind up with...
Unfortunately, the coin you have does NOT appear to be a genuine 1802. Compare your "2" with the 2 of an authentic piece (such as this beauty:...
It's all good. Understanding original vs. monkeyed with surfaces is not easy. The ones I linked above have really good eye appeal, and are all...
Dang, you guys have impossibly high standards. Remember, you are seeing the coin under strong magnification - and its a 67. It doesn't have to be...
I have. Many times. I don't own any because circulation will tend to impede the mirrors. I prefer a higher grade so that the mirrors can be...
It is referred to as "milk spotting." It is not fixable, and is permanent. It often appears years after slabbing, and will significantly adversely...
First, both of those are NGC. That's perfectly fine, but neither of the ones you linked is what you said. Second, I'm not a fan of either of...
They each look like environmental damage. I don't see evidence of missing the clad layer (which is a fairly uncommon error).
The difference is - Ebay is considered a retail outlet. Most users are collectors, and will pay end-user prices. Heritage, and many of the other...
What are you guys seeing that makes you think 66? That seems like a ridiculously clean coin for a 66.... but I'm not an Ike specialist.
I've gotten a couple in change over the years, but not many. They are pretty hard to find, understandably. Even the roll searchers are running...
No, assuming that the coin still looks ok. It will get a reduction in grade for the haziness though, to the point where it probably isn't worth it...
Eh, not really. They are fairly common, and routinely go for a few bucks on Ebay.
