I haven't seen too many cents with that fiery red deep in the features. Oddly enough, this 1928 also has that, even though it's a different mint....
Another shot of the reverse..... The holder is opened, so this is the coin without any plastic in front of it. I love the electric blue. I may...
I see what you mean. If those marks are from polishing the die, then could a polished die be flatter than it originally was, and not be as...
OK, this is getting real interesting again! When I get home I will try to photograph more detail in that area. I really don't see anything there...
Thank you. Not every coin is perfect but they all seem to have a story to tell.
Thanks everyone. This seems to make sense. The coin is shiny, due in part to the toning that has formed, but lacks the cartwheel luster that I...
I picked this up at the LCS today. It's a raw 1920S Lincoln (as you can see!). On the obverse you can make out some of the green toning around...
I have seen numerous photos of early San Francisco cents which are weak in exactly the same place. The S mint wheat cents often have a weak O in...

I think it may have been undergraded by my LCS. It said AU and was $9 or $10 (I got one for my mother at the same time, so I think this was the...
This is how I deal with liking all the early 20th century designs. This now sets on my desk so I can see them all the time. It's a 1917 year set....
And hold on to that feeling!
This was bought to be a companion to the 1928D above. $15.95, and again I thought I'd see if I could rejuvenate it. These are the seller's photos....
That would be great! In my post-war proof set, I got extra 1958 and 1959 proofs so I could flip them over and show the reverses of both series...
I got this today thinking I would be able to rejuvenate it with some acetone and xylene. $14.95 Maybe I don't need to bother. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Sorry if I was dismissive. I really only meant to point out that the statements were so intentionally vague and roundabout that the rest of us...
All I've pieced together is that someone didn't like something that Heritage Auctions did. So far this doesn't interest me.
Here's a conundrum. If neither the buyer nor seller noticed the rarity, and the deal concluded at 3% of the value, what is the right thing to do...
If you get this down to a science, that would be an amazing addition to your services! Just curious - did you put the coin and camera on a...
Nice, and fun to have. I've gotten two gifts that upgraded coins I had in my set; unexpected but welcome.
