One of my favorites. An AU Columbian half with some splotchy purple toning. Picked it up for under $20! [IMG]
Agreed. I am not seeing a doubled die on this coin.
Ah, understood. My definition of just "damage" are physical hits, large scratches and gouges, etc. I base this off the PCGS codes, which makes a...
FWIW, I'm on my iPad and not having any page formatting or access issues.
I can't even enjoy American Independence without seeing this darn coin on the forum? What's next, it being posted as a special Thanksgiving double...
I'll put some acetone on it for a bit and then I'll reshoot to see if I can cut down on the glare.

Testing...what does this do?
Happy Independence day...or as Britain calls it..."Good Riddance day"! :D
Usually retained cuds need to have more vertical displacement than just the crack. I wouldn't quite call this one a retained cud, but it probably...
Issue seems to be fixed, Peter. Thanks!
I personally wouldn't call any particular coin "ugly"... my least favorite design, however, is the Liberty V nickel. It is just very unappealing IMO.
I think there also might be a glitch where people can post on other peoples' for sale ads and such...
