No, that is just a well circulated and possibly slightly damaged coin.
I am really surprised this didn't get a PL, unless the fields in hand look quite a bit different than the pictures. That should definitely be a PL!
I thought they just automatically posted the most recent one with a TrueView? Does it being on the page mean something significant? Looks like an...
I'm not sure I've seen a contemporary counterfeit Walker. That's really cool. So what do you suppose it's made out of? Pewter? Lead?
Looks like an attractive, original EF-40 to me. I would have no problem owning that coin - I think it is very attractive.
We can't tell anything with those blurry pictures.
I strongly disagree. The whole idea of "sight unseen" grading is that you should be able to confidently buy a coin without even seeing it, it...
The people who were involved in making these dies are probably still alive (at least some of them). It will be really cool to hear what they have...

Shoot, I still do! I think we place far too much weight on the TPGs, and not nearly enough weight on educating ourselves. Full disclosure - I'm...
A very attractive AU-55.
See, I don't quite understand why these coins need to be "weeded out." CAC fanatics seem to think that only CAC approved coins are worthy of their...
I would say no. Because anyone who would buy them should already know they were top end for the grade.
Cheech, as one who is frequently involved in the bickering myself, I apologize to the forum. I like to be right, and I'll argue until you quit or...
As one who bickers, I realize in hindsight that sometimes the bickering is unwarranted. Sometimes it is an actual debate, and a disagreement with...
