Yeah, I am pretty sure that photo of Brad Pitt was him playing Achilles in the movie TROY, not Alexander.
I will throw my name in there.
And he wrote a huge detailed thread about it on the NGC forum although I can't find it.
We really need a photo to answer your question. If the coin is not at least MS64, it is not worth getting graded regardless of how nice the...
Here is the Heritage photo. WOW! [IMG] :smile
Wow raider, you are on a roll. That is absolutely correct. Being able to differentiate a diffused light photo from a juiced photo is not easy....

My collecting philosophy is simple. I search for coins that speak to me. Coins that make an immediate impression when I see them. If I don't...
This coin has always perplexed me. It has both AT & NT indicators. The color and progression seem to indicate AT. However, the fact that the...
Anyone want to guess the pedigree?
I am quoting myself. What do you guys think of this coin. [IMG] :)
