The darkness of the coin makes it hard for me to get a real good idea of the grade - I am going with VF30 and that is a nice coin.
I have seen some pictures of large cents where die swelling and die sinking have been mentioned when describing the coins slightly out of shape....
The final comments at the store was that more research needed to be done on the die state and planchet flaws. I find it curious that the weak...
Okay - I finally got off my duff and took some pictures of a few of my lincolns. My favorite is the last. I have a several others, but went for a...
No expert here, but I would probably say XF40 at best and GDJMSP may be correct. Of course you have the coin in hand and we only have pictures....
Same feeling here. My only thought was - man wait a bit and see what prices will be like. Sure on somethings it might cost you a few bucks, but...
GO TO WORK tomorrow. That will show the owner more than anything. Plus ask the owner what you should do in that situation again. MAKE sure you...
Doesn't that usually mean that none are graded higher? Not sure, but who cares. I am sure there will be higher graded 2008's.
No - not dirty - original toned coin. I really like that puppy - very nice indeed.
Wow is right. No wonder people self-slab their change. Cause I have 4 2008's I would gladly sell for 1/10th that cost.
You were posting while I was fixing the picture - I now have it as O-115A. Do you think that is correct? I am almost positive, but reassurance...
Fixed the pictures. By the way I think mine matches this one on coinzip. I have been using it(if examples are available) and heritage after going...
Ben - no problem I just realized I marked the 1806 pictures incorrectly. It should be O-115A. So I have to go fix that. And thanks for the...
So no you did not misunderstand, it was what would you buy. I probably should have been more clear that I was looking for ideas for me. :) So if...
Stainless - sorry about your luck and I think this was a lapse in judgement. Next time ask management what the policy is. And just because the...
Here are my new halves - grading opinions are always welcome and if you think I attributed one of them incorrectly please mention it. You can see...
Well - in my opinion it does not looked clean in the pictures. I am not an expert on this. I would say Xf45 to au50.
Two great idea's so far. But Ben - I think the commute is a little to far for me. Now time to start another thread with my new halves.
Nice coin!!!! I want to say AU - but I really can't see enough to really determine a grade. Very nice coin - I like the wood grain effect.
I agree with Ben. And I believe it was a good buy.
