I think you need to say - all business strike 1877's have shallow N. I believe the proof 1877's have a bold N. Clearly this is not a proof - not...
I believe Mark was just showing why he thought his grade was correct. And it is fine if you disagree, but a discussion and/or illustrations on why...
The worst part is I thought I checked coinzip earlier this week and saw this coin, but it must have been one of your others.
Coinman always feel free to post opinions on coins. And yes at times there is vigorous discussions on those grades or opinions. In this case I...
First to the original question. I think XF40 less wear than the other which I had at VF35. Both are nice coins and will grade at XF at a tpg. At...
If you get it you need to know how it is. Personally I would want a book that covers all varieties. I know there is a quick pocket guide that I...

I would not use it at all - as a matter of fact I would not use most of what is mentioned or used on this board. All that stands out on the link...
Another nice one Kanga!
Search around this board - it has been posted on here somewhere that they are one and the same. Somebody did some searching can't remember how...
