The proof set looks very attractive. I really like the case its in.
Is that the one that was on Ebay? I was watching that one, but just didn't have the cash to pull the trigger. Congrats! I'm glad it went to a good...
Who doth summon me? There is a lot of die polish on this coin, and the obverse appears to be semi-prooflike. However, I'm not seeing any traces...
Sometimes for really deep mirrors that aren't quite DPL, or for strong cameo contrast, you can get a PL and a Star. Like this one, NGC MS-67 * PL...
Blocks of text should be avoided. Limit any text in an infograph like this to a simple sentence or two, at most. With a thing like this, why not...
If you google "1970 Large date", or if you search this forum, I'm sure numerous hits will help you answer your question. Try it, and tell us...
With these pictures, I'd wager a 65 maybe. Better pictures could move that score up or down a point.
If you can see traces of the mintmark, it doesn't qualify as a no-mintmark coin.
Compare it to the pictures here: http://varietyvista.com/02a%20LC%20RPMs%20Vol%201/RPMs%201938S.htm It does not appear to match any of the...
What happened? I feel like QDB is one of those generalists that knows a good bit about everything because he's been doing this for a really,...
The headband needs to be complete for a 40. I may be misinterpreting the pictures, but it doesn't look complete to me. I went back and forth...
Your new picture confirms that this is definitely not the DDO. What you are seeing is strike doubling, also called machine doubling. This is...
The reverse die breaks on this coin are amazing. I agree with everyone else saying AU details. I'm guessing your coin is probably worth $500....
I'd call them like this: 1846 - VG, very rare key date, definitely submit 1833 - VF-35, I don't know the variety. If it's a rare variety, submit,...
I don't do it for all the GTGs, especially ones with not-so-great pictures. That is extremely undergraded at 63!
It's unusual to see modern commems with toning like that. Any idea how it's been stored for the last 25 years?
Strike: Average for the date, but incomplete details. A 66 for strike - those incomplete details just can't get a 67 for the strike score....
If it is such a rare variety, I'd suggest submitting it to NCS to remove the corrosion, and then submit it to your favorite TPG. The value will be...
Most of the coin looks environmentally damaged. Given the color and the encrustations, I'm more inclined to think buried in the ground than...
Nice variety. I had to go look it up, but I noticed there are 5 different D/S varieties in 1938. That's crazy! Someone got written up for that...
