Well, here is my first attempt at photographing a semi-PL coin. This one is currently in an MS-67* holder. I also tried to photograph a fully PL...
I should also mention that auction houses like HA have a minimum buyers premium (I think it’s $19). So if you win an item for $10 you’ll still...
Of the three I listed HA is the only one to include a tax on the invoice. I live in Mississippi and to the best of my knowledge, I’ve never had to...
HA is a solid company and even though I am a tiny fish in a big sea they have always treated me with the utmost respect. When you purchase from...
I agree the obverse is very nice, but what does the reverse look like? Remember, a coin has to be PL on both sides to get the PL designation. If...
@Jack D. Young these are indeed very special. Even more so since they are in TPG holders. At first glance, they look pretty good. I’ve actually...
Thank you! You have 7 C-1s? That is interesting, are you partial to the variety? During my true EAC days, I had a small hoard of 1853 N-19s (die...
I am going to go with no star because of the near-terminal toning on the outer edges of the obverse.
Thanks for the feedback everyone! My instinct was that this coin would land in a 40 holder. I actually like the laminations, but I tend to enjoy...
I have, but these are mostly late 18th-century coppers, and they are nowhere near as flashy as a proof mercury dime. I tried imaging my proof...
This little addition just arrived in the mail today. I had a few minutes to snap some pictures, and I wanted to see what you all thought. It is a...
I really like #2. It seems to be the best of both worlds to me. I love the coin by the way @physics-fan3.14! I could use the date/MM combo for my...
@thomas mozzillo you can find more information on the star designation here: https://www.ngccoin.com/coin-grading/grading-scale/ As for the 1964...
Round two: I did my best to brighten these images. I think they more accurately portray the color of the coins. Please let me know what you think....
Well....I have no idea. I cropped the image and then saved the changes to a file. The file always contains the original (a .CR2 file) and an...
@rmpsrpms thank you for the tip. I will have to play around with this when I get back home. Yes, I used the black velvet transfer disc for raw coins.
I want to thank everyone for the flurry of support! This thread reconfirms everything I know about the comradery of this hobby. I have a lot to...
I failed to mention this earlier, but I recently won an NGC award for "Most Creative Custom Set". This was a complete surprise, and I am deeply...
I don't think it would star either.
A bit contemporary in comparison to the rest of my collection, but it was cheap, and I could not resist. 1937 Great Britain proof Shilling with...
