FWW, here is what ANACS says on their site: What superlative designations does ANACS use when it grades a coin? The following designation will...
Get a nice Airtite and enjoy the coin for what it is -- a cool coin and a piece of American history!
Neat coin. I think I see the words "DETAILS" on the flip, and I suspect that this coin has been cleaned and that's why they indicated "MS 60...
Please don't put words into my mouth. I never called anyone stupid or greedy. I also never casted "aspersions" at anyone's character, unless you...
I do and in terms of numismatic rarity 800 examples is a huge number, and hardly rare. Compare it to other modern "rarities" of the...
It is not unsurprising, presumably as a seller of these coins who stands to gain from their sale, that you hold that opinion. To answer your...
I would suggest that selling it directly to a collector would be the fastest and lowest overhead. If that would maximize profits, and don't...

p.s. Personally, and setting aside the luster (or lack thereof), if I were buying these coins this is EXACTLY the type of strike I would be...
Thank you for your response. I'm not the biggest fan of the seated types, and with all of the varieties a signifciant portion of my type set...
That's a good way to do it. Tell me, did you collect all of the seated types -- with arrows, without arrows, without drapery, etc? Being a...
I do not believe that is the case for FB Mercs. To wit, look at the bottom band, and tell me if you think it is split/full.
It is and thank you for posting it. :thumb:
p.s. assuming it's real, the worst you did was throw away about $20 -- not much downside.
That photo is so oversharpened and poor it is impossible to say for sure what the coin will look like, but with that said, it doesn't appear to me...
Where's the luster? Cleaned MS 62ish? Net graded 58 or 55? Your guess is as good as mine...Mike
