I disagree. That is an expensive coin, but it is not beautiful. This is an 1807 that is also graded 66, but this is a beautiful coin:...
Sure, and some of them have people paying 5 figures, even. Those are extremely few and far between. The vast majority are worth 2 figures. But...
It shouldn't take more than a couple of seconds to grade these. After a grader has looked at a few thousand of them, any imperfections should be...
Is that a die crack from the bust through the date and star to the rim? That's a pretty hefty die crack for an SBA. Cool! That damn prong is...
The google says your weight was probably made to weigh Portuguese coins, and probably made in the early 1700's (between 1706 and 1750). There is...
Show us a picture of the other side. Oops, nevermind, I see now you say it says that on both sides.

What sort of replies are you looking for? Do you have a question of some sort? Are you looking for opinions about something? You seem to have...
With the significant spotting and luster grazes, yes. There are less scratches than the reverse, but I'm at 66 max on this one. Also, it's...
Yes, definitely machine doubling. The mintmark is doubled as well as the date, which is extremely unlikely on coins of this date unless it is...

Strike: This is clearly a late die state, so the details are significantly eroded from the die. However, the strike appears to be strong - I see...
What "lines" are you seeing? I don't see any die polish on this coin at all.
The coin shown in this thread has machine doubling and has no premium value. If your coin looks just like this one, it also has machine doubling....
Well, I'd need the other side to give you a full grade. But, that is one of the most scratched up Eagles I've ever seen. Probably a 65 or 66, tops.
I hope not.
Yeah, its real. It sold on Heritage in 2011 for $115k:...
Do you care which date or variety? I think the 1857 is a bit cheaper in most grades. When I'm looking at something like this, a graph is...
Perhaps, but the advice remains true - you should absolutely not buy key date coins first when starting to collect a series.
What sort of advice do you need? You have to ask a question in order to get an answer.
