That is great snaz - the exact same camera I have. Now when you figure out the details of how best to make it work - let me know. Oh yeah - nice...
I agree Ruben. I have some obviously cleaned coins that I really like - so I understand others would not buy them at the price I did, but the...
That is cool Farns! Glad to see you all enjoying it. I love golden toned nickels just like you pictured. Very cool. Nice liberty nickel also -...
You still have a nice coin. Like you said not a major loss - only a few dollars in my opinion. At local coins shows I have seen at least 3...
Yeah - but energyecru renewed it with something like SGS is becoming real. I did not want the last post in the thread to have that - some...
How about a link to the auction? Sounds funny.
I agree with Doug and I believe this actually backs him up. They do not profit by either grade - so if they give a coin a 66 then they think it...
No way I will every agree with SGS becoming real - they are a joke and will always be a joke. They can't become real after cheating people out of...
Sorry Ryan, but to me it looks like the filled 2 variety. I think I have one of those at home.
Nice coins all of them. I really like the caped bust coinage. All of them look nice to me - and to save a post - so does the flying eagle. Nice...
Nice coins - the 1798 might be a S-166, but no books with me while on travel. The half cent has seen better days, but was probably worn around...
And I have only looked at a few, so I will never confess to being an expert. I just like these big old dollars. I still think it is better than...
I use a QX5 - mainly for looking for RPM's etc. If it is in question I pop it under the scope. I usually don't use it for pictures of coins -...
You know calling us morons for not being sure about a coin's authenticity is pretty assinine. All we have are some low grade pictures to go on and...
I thought that also, just don't know these well enough. The good news if it is genuine PCGS will at least put it in a holder now. :)
Can't say for sure it is real, but looks like a B-29. Better pictures might help match it up. I would probably say PCGS would grade VF30.
Well for the 1835 I would go with F-12 and maybe VG10 for the seated 1877. The morgans are why you need a camera and not a scanner. I can't...
I think coin 1 is F12 maybe F15. The second coin is VF25, but like mentioned with the rim dings I would also net it to F. To me the first coin...
Looks like a S-277 to me. Looks like the coin as some nice details. Sorry can't help on what acetone would do, but if you try it please post...
Nice coins all. You can check out mikes -http://www.pbase.com/miker/large_cents. I keep his site bookmarked. Here are two of mine. [IMG][IMG]...
