I wouldn't submit that coin unless I was convinced it would grade MS-67FS. And with that damage on the steps, it won't grade FS. I'd guess based...
This is very, very true. However, I still use guides and auction archives to guess what the other person might be willing to pay.
Yes, I agree that it would be VF. I use the PCGS Photograde app, here: https://www.pcgs.com/photograde/#/Morgan/Grades Based on the surface...
I don't even know what you are talking about. Are these bullion pieces or medals or something?
I think I've posted this one before. This is something I'm very proud of: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Quick point: CoinWEEK is not CoinWorld ;) Not sure if you can edit it, or maybe a mod can. Either way, that article is full of excellent...
These look cool. What were they used for, because they obviously circulated? Were these similar to hard times tokens, in that they were...
Oh, that's too bad!
You can find these for $35-$50 without prooflike qualities, although I paid a bit more for it because of the semi-prooflike nature. This is well...
Ah, yes, that makes a lot more sense. I was really confused for a minute. And, your after results show some pretty good improvement. Looks like...

I bought it for the semi-prooflike quality, which is extremely rare in Wheat Cents. I've now added it to my PL Registry set.
Apparently, I bought this coin a year and a half ago. I had no idea I owned it until I was cleaning out a cabinet and found it. I had to search...
I get why they call them PL. They have reflective fields like proofs but they aren't proofs. PL is the term used by many mints, and many...
Good instinct. That poor coin has been through unspeakable horrors. Absolutely avoid any that look like this!
Yes, the reverse shows a lamination error. It is extremely common on war nickels, as they were struggling with the alloy. And yes, the obverse...
I know which coin in the Heritage FUN Auction I *want* to be my first coin purchase. Whether it will or not remains to be seen.
The OP is not the seller. The seller is a very well known Ebayer with a strong following (he's quite active on the PCGS forum, if I recall).
I find that coin distinctly unattractive. But, we've discussed this seller a couple of times recently. He has a very strong customer base and...
