Hmmm.... are they scratches, though? ;)
Well, I have this here Prooflike half cent. It's the only one graded IN THE ENTIRE SERIES. Is that rare enough for you? [IMG] [IMG]
Neither side has what it takes to be a 20. The reverse is a 15. The obverse is a 12. Thus, it will get an overall F-12 grade, I think.
I don't see any discoloration or trace of wear on the high points, and the fields appear undisturbed. The strike is average to slightly above...
Haha, when that strange creature becomes well worn, its going to have a hole in it.
Nope. Still don't see it.
I mean, I would take her out for a date, but she seems like she might be a bit... I dunno... cold and hard? ;) Really cool looking coins, and...

Just got this one, graded NGC MS-66 PL. One of the very few modern commems known in prooflike condition: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Any time I see blue and purple on copper, I instantly think MS-70 and get nervous. I see the hints on the reverse, which is probably why you went...
Impossible to accurately grade guess from those pictures! I wish you luck and hope it is really nice in hand... but I'll wait to see your pics.
That's a bummer. Perhaps you could re-create the thread here?
The 70S DDO-001 is a pretty significant DDO, and should be clearly visible even in blurry photos like yours. It is not visible. Ergo, it is not...
Now when y'all say "eastern mint" what exactly do you mean? Were these minted somewhere and they just don't know where? Or were these found in the...
Very attractive coin. What made you seek out that particular coin? Does it fit into a set you are building, or was there something about it that...
