I'm inclined to agree with your theory. Just as due diligence, has anyone done any comparisons with known 1875-CC MM placements? The point of...
With the understanding that my opinion is subject to modification by someone with more "product-specific" knowledge (I'm more of a generalist), I...
I'd be "in the market" for this one at MS64, maybe even in reality - the coloration is right in my wheelhouse. So many coins, too little money. :)
The best I can do from these pics is, "Dang, I need to look closer at this one." Let's just say I'd be a buyer.
I think you've got your finger on the cause - some minor issues with collar placement during the strike - it seems as if it didn't reach what...

Yowch.
You could duplicate my imaging system for roughly the cost of that MightyScope. This is downsized by half to post here: [ATTACH] A full-scale...
He was here an hour and a half ago, though.
That being the case, I believe (from these images) the keepers are the 1896 and the 1904. They will all track melt value to an extent (with some...
You might want to consider the mint marks - the 1891 Philadelphia issue is the third-lowest mintage of the entire series and among the most...
I wouldn't hesitate to crack it. We're not talking about a $5000 coin. And there isn't a slab in existence which refuses to open cleanly when I...
