Easy answer - graders are not perfect and do make mistakes.
Not my cup of tea - bigger pictures could help other judge the coin. To me from this angle it just looks to beat up for a 63 - not saying it...
As Kanga mentioned you could use photobucket and oraganize the pictures in albums. Or if you do not mind paying(which it sounds like you do) you...
Depends on what I find - I am always looking. Sometimes it is one coin and sometimes it is mutliple coins. It could be days between purchases or...
Very nice coin! Heritage also has some sweet large cents for sale.
I would have to see the coins in hand. Certain toning I like and others I detest. At my local coin shop had some toned coins this week that were...

It looks really nice - can you get some better lighting on it? The pictures are too dark for me to really judge. I bought a 1853 that was very...
Nice batch of half cents. I am not sure I might not go F on the last one - looks more like weak strike versus the amount of wear. Who cares it is...

None of that modern stuff for me. :whistle:
Good idea - I did not think about my only 2 center. Pictures still on photobucket. Not that great a coin, but maybe useful. [IMG] [IMG]
Yep - I had to adjust my storage just to hold those big puppies. And god forbid that they make them the same size and shape each year. Plus they...
