Now that I think about it, no. The problem that year was not that the presses were not strong enough to impress the metal but that the dies were...

Dern!! That looks like a better strike than mine. Full beard and wheats on a 22-D. Now that is a hard coin to find and a nice woodie to boot.
Watch out. Doug says those do not exist, but it sure looks like a real one to me.
$90 Nice toning on pretty much a run-of-the -mill coin.
It is not your camera. It is your lighting. BTW, it would be easier if you would crop the pictures. I don't need all that background to grade a...
You pictures look awfully flat (i.e. doesn't show the luster well), but I don't see any wear on the "D". It looks to be 64 or above depending on...
Nice woodie, but this thread is not quite dead yet, I hope.
He has enough of a picture there I can tell you that it is not a "no D". The best you are going to get out of that is a weak "D" damaged....

I definitely agree with that. The last 2 buys I made to sell were 1935- MS-67's slabbed by NGC. Both were $62 BIN or below. I only scan them as...
I would think that S VDB is at least a 15 and would likely go to 20. There is way too much detail for a 12. The 1877 would go 6, IMHO, and...
I don't know which 16-D you were looking at, but I followed a 16-D and the 18-D - until they got out of hand. However, the one that really got me...
It will be in the guess the grade - soon I hope. I also wound up getting one of the coins on eBay that I did not win from Heritage. The eBay...
Mostly on the wing feathers, but there is some on the leg and on her hair also.
At this stage of the game, I don't know if I am grading the coin or the poster, but I will say AU again.
