I also believe it to be NT. I don't really like toned Ikes - of course, I don't like Ike's to begin with. Shane over on the NGC boards showed me...
Theoretically, the surfaces should have the same composition. The zinc pennies are coated with pure copper.
It depends. Your clip isn't very large, and its circulated, so its probably not worth more than $10. For everything you need to know, and quite a...
I speak with some knowledge of FBLs - searching mint sets will probably not get you very far. They are however the best place to look for FBL's...
Spartan, what is your budget? That really will determine your grade range. I too just completed my Registry set of Franklin's (linked in my sig...
Good guesses on the grades everyone. They are all graded MS-65, but the first two I believe have a good shot at 66 (the 1941 especially - strong...
Was lucky enough to buy these two shillings. The first is a Charles I, the second William III. NGC calls the Charles I a F-12, but I think it...
I got off work Friday afternoon as early as possible, and had a very pleasant drive down to Orlando (about 6 hours). The afternoon was sunny, and...
I didn't buy it, but one of the forum members on the NGC chat boards is a previous owner of it. Needless to say, his collection is amazing.
I just bought my recently shown 22 Peace toner from RcToners, and it arrived in the mail today. The pictures were great, but the coin is even...
I think they are both NT, and both very attractive. I'd have to see the 1922 in hand to be sure, but I think it would be a tough choice if I could...
That is a good picture! I vote yes. 49D's are generally very well struck - your coin appears to be about the norm. I'm somewhat concerned with...
Sorry, I posted before I fact-checked. Then had to edit when I found I was remembering incorrectly.
FSB and FB are generally interchangeable. Both TPG's use FB for Mercs.
They do it with more frequency than you would think - unknowingly of course. Over the summer, there was a coin doctor exposed who had a very high...
As would be expected, Paul - the center bands are opposite Miss Liberty's cheek. When the two high points are directly opposite each other, you...
Splotchines is not indicative of AT - many, many NT coins are splotchy or uneven. This coin has much smoother coloration than many, however. A...
As mentioned above - its not what you have, its how you use it. You do not need an expensive SLR setup like many of the guys above to take good,...
I'll call it a 62. I would also pass on this unattractive coin.
I personally am a big fan of die polish lines on some coins. They add intrigue and character to a coin. For much more about die polish, see the...
