There is a considerable amount of green contamination on this coin. There is a very distinct green ring around the rim on both sides, and green...
Eh, what the hell, why not.
I know that at least part of your post is sarcasm, so I'm going to work with that ;) However, I'll point out that there is a bit of forgiveness...
Can you explain where you see corrosion or env. damage on this piece? I don't see it myself, but I might have missed it.
They aren't better, but they're different: if you look at the NGC photos, they show a different perspective - but it's still full of marks that...
There are 3 things that will diminish the details on a coin, as compared to perfection: 1. Wear 2. Die State 3. Strike Unfortunately, I think...

Yeah, that's probably about what I'd expect. The coin grades VG Details, Damaged. So, it's a $3-$4 coin, if you want to be generous. With the...
Since its over, from my recollection, here's a sample: 2 Very high grade Morgans (at least one was a CC, as I recall) 1 California Commem (looked...
Ooh, curious. I know he's exceptionally good. Have they released the rest of the results?
Wow. This is the sort of thing that belongs in the Journal of the American Numismatic Society! Fantastic research.
This weekend at FUN, I held in my hand coins worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. These coins exceed my entire net worth. Somebody owns them,...
