Here is obverse of [ATTACH] a graded Proof 64 Cameo:
OK, here is another, and sad it has to be photos and not "in hand" but what are we to do? I wish I had a bigger blowup but FYI the grade limiters...
EF details. Just too much action sadly on this dude. Love the buffs though!
I see a small planchet defect to left of nose but precious few marks for a cartwheel coin of this size - perhaps review some Morgan dollars to see...
Storage conditions critical IMO. Also, may not be the best light - I've seen a number similar and were not problematic. May have been dipped...
I really, really like the belt buckle. The ring, well, not sure about that although you have a good background story provided. The overall design...
I too just love so many of the Mexican coins, and give them credit on the moderns, even though the Libertad gold and silver series is getting a...
Appreciate your conservative grading, and again as I love Victorian silver that is a nice coin.
I will go ahead and pronounce judgement: this coin was misslabbed as a proof and is a currency strike, albeit decent preparation went into the...
Indeed, you got a very nice looking coin. I have found some pleasant pieces from them in the past as well. Congratulations!
Very, very nice. These are difficult to grade but think you may be a bit conservative with the AEF business as it looks def. a full EF at least in...
Yes, you are spot on with regards to that. I just don't like them. However, they had another inexpensive coin that I got and perhaps shall post. I...
Which, the grade? Me either...
I quite agree with that point. However the details in George's hair and some of the reverse detail such as on the lions' extremities and the...
OK, this coin was sold at London Coins auction about a week ago and is interesting (at least to me) as it appears to me a certain way from the...
I always find it interesting to refer to the Brits. Specimens were for all intents and purposes proofs through the 19th century [at least]. But...
Actually baseball, that IS how it works. Entertained would be rational discourse rather than unsubstantiated and baseless contrarian flat...
I have not ever heard of a designated specimen strike being superior to a proof, and would take exception to that. In the OP, the depicted coin we...
Yikes, I think I may let others handle this. It is difficult to define and the definition not only vary between people but also over time. In...
Yes, exactly and a pattern at that and not an error. The only other one I am aware of was the Norweb example and this was got from Spink a bit...
Separate names with a comma.
