I recognize the first one, but can you tell us about the other 2? And why they are your favorites?
Very nice coins! How do the images compare to the coins in hand?
Why did you always want one? Is this a rare date? Are you working on a set? Did you like the design? What attracted you to this coin? It looks...
Honestly, they look more like tourist souvenirs you'd find in a gift shop. I don't think these are coins.
I'd say those pictures are way too dark to tell you anything about that coin. The NGC cert verification has better pictures:...
I didn't realize they were considered a variety. Huh, might have to buy it now.
They do not look like proofs to me.
Yes, some coins are known for a green-gold appearance. However, very carefully compare the naturally toned green-gold look of the coin that...
The High Relief 1907 St. Gaudens were intentionally struck 5 times to bring up all the detail. The proof examples were struck 9 times:...
Most of my nicer coins came from Heritage: https://coins.ha.com/itm/liberty-double-eagles/1904-20-ms64-prooflike-ngc/a/1212-4839.s
Interesting - the Royal Mint acts as a rare coin dealer and authenticator. That's pretty cool.
I think yours is PL even without conservation. PCGS will designate PL on any deserving coin now, but it didn't when that was originally graded....
Not really, it's more because the 1904 has a very high mintage compared to many other dates. Thus, there are more survivors in high grades. I'm...
Every few years, the TPGs update their slabs to make them clearer, more scratch resistant, stronger, etc. They also have experimented with...
A lot of your recent threads seem to propose ultimatums: this or that! It isn't quite so clear.... I have some sets where there will only be...
Take another set of pictures that shows clearly the following areas: -cheek -jawline -neck -back of neck (adjacent to braid) These are the...
I guess I'm not really sure what "look" you're asking about? Are you asking about the subtle golden patina around the coin? I think this is...
Wow. That price is ridiculous. Divide by 4. That's more reasonable. And yes, Skyman's example is significantly deeper. Skyman has an eye for...
There is luster, but this definitely confirms "no star" for me. The luster isn't very strong, it doesn't pop, and the areas towards the rims are...
I won't guess since I saw it in hand and helped convince you to buy it ;) Beautiful coin!
