Doug - as requested what do you see on the copper coins?
I agree just a blurry picture of a weak strike on liberty. At least that is my opinion.
I believe someone mentioned they use Eagle 2x2 albums for this.
I like all kinds of coins, but my favorite is large cents and IHC's.
Good deal!

What kind of help would you like? If pricing I use heritage and then looked at graded closed auctions on ebay. Then there are a few dealers I...
When looking at the individual coins grading standards I have seen toning mentioned - but never eye appeal. Yes - luster is mentioned, but I...

Love the coin, but I think I'll pass on bidding. :)
I agree - F details and I am thinking S-197, but am not 100% positive.
It is okay to disagree - cause it could be shelf wear or it could be a well placed bag mark on the obverse, could be strike. Not positive myself,...
