I would be very susceptible to those!
Marshall, what am I supposed to be seeing on that 44-S that I am missing? BTW, AU +-55 kangayou, my guess is that someone in you neighborhood...
BTW, if planchet flaws/marks only remain on the low points, I guess that means both Lehigh and Mike were wrong in their discussion of Jeffersons...
Very nice, clinker. The only problem I found was a dead link;
One word of caution when using it now. Be sure to uncheck them when done. Elsewise, if you post with a quote again in the same thread, you will...
I can no more explain that to you than you can explain how this big flat surface apparently rubbed the high points of Abe's bust, but still...

Not much changed this time. Top 10. Columns are rank, name, average, and number of guesses. Leadfoot 0.586 31 ddoomm1 0.611 19 bahabully...
Without that spot, this is every bit a 64+ and maybe a 65. I guess they though it only a small deduction. It was there when they graded it...
