Which grading service does the best / not insanely overpriced error slabbing? I've never submitted an error coin, so I'd appreciate any feedbak...
If you're looking to maintain value and avoid high premiums, I would lean towards XF & AU gold instead of MS. Many can be had just over melt. $10...
Before seeing the slab grades, I was leaning towards 55 & 60. I love the die crack on the first one. Spectacular pieces!
The holder is rather scruffy, which is making it hard to take clean pics, but the reverse here looks almost mirrored in the fields. I'm not...
Yeah, not my best pics. Sorry. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Wouldn't that leave some contact residue?
VF35 here, based on the cheek wear. Lovely reverse!

I picked up a lovely 1875 20 cent piece in an ICG holder. It was slabbed as "MS60 Details, damaged". The reverse has two crescents in the lower...
I'd forgotten about that one. Looks like there were 2.
1936 US Philippines Peso, with FDR & Quezon:...

I actually quite like the only obverse of a US coin showing a living (at the time) US President. Can you name it?
Sure is. The thread title doesn't say anything about which obverses are terrible on coins with good reverses though. ;)
The Sacagawea dollars have always underwhelmed me. There was a chance to make a radical statement about inclusiveness on coins, and it came out...
I do like the eagle too. The high relief feathers really pop, although the Aussies beat us to the design with some of their high relief falcon 5oz...
Seems a bit reminiscent of the Peace dollar & the $10 gold piece design. I like the fusion of the two styles - kind of art deco, with a hint of...
45, including 10 I submitted myself (to ANACS). Mostly PCGS, some NGC. About half of what I own are medals or so-called dollars. I'm not...
Just got mine in the mail today. She's a beaut, but I haven't seen much about this piece online or at my coin club. The depth of the relief is...
After thinking on it, there is probably not a partial refund that the seller could offer me that I'd be happy with (as the coin just has too much...
Separate names with a comma.
