I will post a close-up in the morning. I'll catch it while it's still asleep.
It's hard to express gratitude that is adequate for the time and effort that people will expend - with no reward except the love of numismatics...
Purchased today at the LCS. My first gold of any sort. Since I received a cent in the mail at about the same time, I don't know which is my newest...
Bob, I don't have their books, but I know some of you do, and that is why I asked for help, opinions and diagnostics. In lieu of having the...
I found that site too, but they assume there is only one proof die. Based on the mintage numbers, I believe there were two. I also went to...
I have a 1912 Lincoln Cent that has a very interesting appearance. I posted a question about whether it could be a matte proof in Post Your...
I see that @SuperDave has the first major variety recorded for 2017. Fake News sPecial rePort The 2017 cent has corrected the lack of a mint mark...
This 1922-D doesn't quite match up in terms of die erosion. It does have some weak wheat stalks and smearing of the lettering at the top of the...
New pictures for 1921. There is an excellent set of three articles starting with The Coinage of 1921, Part One on the NGC site. The author points...
I confess I paid a bit more than usual for this coin, but they are hard to find. This just arrived in an old ANACS holder as an MS62. This looks...
The macro attachment may be worth trying. The iPhone 6s is what I have, too. It has a fixed wide-angle lens. If you hold the camera at its...
I recently posted new photos of 1919 in post #4157 , so I am going to skip past them. These are new pictures of the 1920 series that upgrade the...
Post your coin photography set-up is a thread that many have contributed to. It helped me just to read through it. There are a number of points...
I don't want to rain on anybody's parade, but I bought this as a "GEM BU RED" within the last year for $16.20. If the grades don't fall where you...
These were already posted in #4075, and discussed in the thread "Lincoln 1918 - Guess the mint". These are all new pictures, now that I'm longer...
I just cannot capture this 1917 Philadelphia cent's personality with a camera. In hand, the reverse's luster radiates beneath a deep maroon color....
I can see that your 1925-D is a different die pair than mine. On this one, the left edge of the D is to the left of the 2. On yours, the D is...
The 1916 was posted earlier. Here is the full year set. The 1916-D has some sort of crack running from the middle of the head all the way through...
I prefer an RB to full red, but it's hard to find someone who sells them. The red coins are plentiful after the mid-30's and apparently there is...
OK, that is amazingly lustrous and I love the blue coloring. You drove me back to the camera to see if I could enliven my 1914 to show half of...
