Yeah... After further research, that's basically what I've concluded as well. I thought I saw evidence of what MAY be the base of a repunched "A"...
I'm voting cast (fake). Lots of missing serifs; on bottoms of letter C in "COMMON", M in "COMMON", both T's in "MASSACHUSETTS", digit '7' in date,...
Just looking for a few opinions. This coin seems to exhibit all of the necessary to be the FS-25-1834-901 (As listed by the Cherrypickers Guide)...
I've gotta remember to take more "shots in the dark". ;) ... Beautiful coin, Merc. Definitely looks clean for a 65. If you didn't ONLY collect OGH...
There we go! Nicer photo. I'll withdraw my previous opinion from the judgment of your last photo. I'd call it a 62/63BN. Doesn't look to have...
Sounds like a massive stroke... What a shame. Come back to us, Chris! Don't fade into the light........... ;) -Brian
I said 66. The obverse color probably bumped it a grade, knowing NGC. Probably has the TRUE details of a 65. :) -Brian
I said 63. Lincoln bust is a bit weak and motto is a bit mushy. :) -Brian
Beautiful! Pretty strong DDO for the series. Nice find! :) -Brian
I see nothing out of the ordinary... Please explain in greater detail exactly what YOU believe may be an error. What I can tell is that the coin...
The two-cent piece looks like an AU58BN, but the photos are rather blurry so It may be as high as a 62BN. The large cent looks AU-Details......
Maybe a 66... But it's tough to tell if it's got FB from the photos you've included. Either way, she's a beaut! :) -Brian
65FB? :) ... Totally a shot in the dark. -Brian

Thank you so much for the info, Lance! Yeah, I'm thinking certified for the set. Figure it's the safest thing to do. Though, if I do happen upon a...
Hey, LanceSo, I've decided that I'm going to start a CBH set! I'm thinking VF would be a good, solid grade with maybe a few XF's thrown in (Don't...
Slightly resembles 1972 DDO #3 (Link to LincolnCentResource for diagnostics- http://lincolncentresource.com/doubledies/1972ddo3.html), but it's...
Not my photos. I figured these would suffice. :) -Brian
Agreed. Mid-grade Barber, Seated, and Capped Bust halves command CRAZY premiums on eBay... I recently saw a Seated Half that was PCGS certified...
I thought the same. Reverse looks in the VF25-30 range, but I thought the obverse may hold it back to a VF20... F15 was based on how the cheek is...
