That is a really nice looking Lafayette you have there. It occurs to me that nowhere in this thread have I posted my DuVall 3-D. What an...
Mike, You are absolutely correct about planchet flaws on Jefferson Nickels. And while there are some on the reverse, I am not sure I would...
I understand. I use the same general method where I look at the entire coin and form an opinion. I then go over the coin with a loupe to ensure...
Are you saying the coin has MS66 surfaces but you would penalize 3 points for the strike or are you basing your grade on an established grading...
We haven't done too many of these lately and I kind of miss them. Please guess the grade of this 1953-S Jefferson Nickel graded by NGC in the...
IIRC these are the percentages of the different die varieties for Lafayette Dollars: DuVall 1-A: 5% DuVall 1-B: 50-55% DuVall 2-C:...
I don't know what I am doing that is out of line but I am not going to offer an insincere apology just to appease pony. If Speedy feels the need...

Cat, His comments can't be libelous if they are presented as opinions. IIRC, he started one of the posts in this thread with: Having said...
I would look for a Lafayette Dollar that is either DuVall 1-A or 3-D. These are the more rare die varieties. While most people do not collect...
It is extremely hard to determine the originality of the toning from those photos. However, the color scheme on the reverse of orange, violet,...
Steve, What I am trying to convey to you is that the doubling of the eye on this variety is extremely strong. So strong in fact that it should...
Steve, You paid $60 for that Jefferson. While compared to the price guides it appears that you got a great deal, you purchased the coin sight...
