Nice coin. I'm seeing MS and RB. Is that a die break at 3-4 o'clock on the obverse? (I like die breaks. Gives a coin personality.)
Thanks for the offer. I know there's a s/w package out there called Dreamweaver which is well thought of. It would certainly make things easier on...
GENERAL COMMENT (hence there will be exceptions): Some types of unintentional damage to a coin is not necessarily grounds for body bagging....
Here's a third option. The navigation click-on's work. Please look at all 3 and tell me which you like best....
If you're worried about a body bag, then I think ANACS would be the way to go. They would handle the coins the same way SEGS would, and they have...
In general SEGS is considered a reputable TPG. They are also considered reasonably savvy and accurate about grading. BUT They are erratic enough...
I'm working on a website. Here's two layout options for one of the Intro pages. Which do you prefer? And why? 1-column Clickable Table...
You'll get better answers over at eBay.
Yeh, I see "cleaned". When I see "cleaned" I personally ignore grade. I also ignore the coin. I never intentionally buy a cleaned coin. (Of course...
You're correct, at least according to Coin World. They reported that the pros generally follow this procedure: 1. Naked eye evaluation. 2. 5x to...
What set is it? Right now my Copper/Nickel/Silver type set is #14 at NGC. Got a few coins to add yet. Don't know how much further up the ranks I...
I'm in the NGC Registry. They accept both NGC and PCGS slabbed coins. Saves me a lot of money. I don't have to do crossovers.
I was under the impression that 10x was generally the max used for grading. Am I right or wrong? Anything above 10x was used for detecting coin...
I'll take it with me to the ANA show in Baltimore the end of the month. Then I can get a quick free opinion and submit it if they think it'll be a 65.
My favorite dealer gave me one for Xmas. He's a national known small cent dealer. It's made by Eschenbach (Germany) and he says it's the best he's...
I want to use it in my NGC Registry typeset so it has to be in an NGC or PCGS holder. If it drops back to a 64 I'll have to decide whether to go...
Since it appears to be post-Mint damage NGC and PCGS might not slab it. ANACS of course will. Your image of the reverse is a bit fuzzy, but...
I need your opinions. Will this coin get the same grade at NGC? [IMG]
Most of the value of my collection is numismatic. Metal prices have essentially no effect on my coins.
At one time I was collecting the world for my birthyear. Probably was about 90% done. Then I said heck with it, and sold it all off except the...
