This type of thing is happening more and more---one family from around here went missing a few months back while taking a boat trip on the...
I'm not that good at grading FE Cents but I think F sounds about right. As for the DD I can't see the detail large enough to tell. Speedy
Well since these coins were only issued in sets from the mint they are more of a Specimen than a normal coin--some call them matted UNC---some...
I agree---it shows a weak strike down by the date too---the stars and rim detail also looks kindof weak. Speedy
Well it is graded by NGC as SP69! This is one of the Matte Nickels and I must say that it is NICE---I got the 1997 Matte Nickel at the same time...
No one has hit the grade---well in one way you have but lets just say that you havn't put down what NGC did. Speedy
Ya know Frank---I have always thought that more than one of the DD's looked close to being the same but I never thought about them being just...
I've got another coin (not the same date) with just as good strike....maybe someday I'll post photos of it. Speedy
Most of the time I don't post photos larger than the size above because I think that is about the best size there is to look at a coin and judge a...
I think there has been around 60 Minn. "DD" found---note that I put " marks around the DD part--I'm not 100% sure that it is all they are hyped up...
More than likely they are already lower than PF69-----some time ago I heard someone say that most proof coins from the mint would grade PF65-PF67....
For anyone starting collecting I would suggest some reading first---go to this link and read all of the links that GDJMSP has listed---then go on...
Hey Guys Here is a new pick-up of mine--got it from a friend that wasn't happy with the price that Heritage offered him for the coin so he...
Well like always---we will need to see both sides. Speedy
Did you see that this CSI grading company will sell you un-sealed SLABS so you can slab your coins yourself?????? Speedy
To crack it out and not hurt the coin do this--- Take the slab to a floor that is concrete---or something like a concrete block---also take a...
To tell a value we would need to see photos of both sides.... None the less---none of these above are rare dates and most of the time Wheat cents...
I moved this to the World & Ancient Coins forum as this is not a US coin. Speedy
I'm thinking more like AU58---my dad has an NGC AU55 I think it is and while the detail is great the luster isn't as good as this one---if it...
When posting photos you will want to post a photo showing the whole coin---that way we can ID it for you. Speedy
