Well - glad you did not win it. I worry about buying from that seller, plus I am not sure that coin is a 66. You can always buy a graded coin and...
Interesting - don't have that book. I can't see enough of either to attribute it. They had a 1794 at the shop yesterday that had a great head and...
Exactly how I feel. Now to the OP - define nice? One site I use already pointed out and Harlan Berk has a raw 63 for $49. VTcoins has several in...
Not sure this one qualified for a bump - and you maybe right that it is just two people bidding on a slab. I think this coin should be called G-4...
I would say XF45, just slightly too much wear for AU. Not sure what a tpg would do. And I will not touch die state since I really do not know...
Actually I am watching that auction. I would put this coin at G-4 to G-6, but I also think the color and solid looks of the planchet drive a...
Not cool at all. Playing is one thing, but fraud is another.
Very sweet indeed. I love that obverse. On the reverse I just wish the hint of green was not in the upper left. Still it is a very nice coin....
The first is very true - wish you had more in varying grades. Maybe we should send him some pictures of different coins in different grades. Not...
Luster was nice, but the first picture made it look like almost no details in the hair and around the ear. The new picture I think shows more...
In all honesty I deducted for the spots - I was not sure what a tpg would do over them.
Exactly. :)
Been there done that. I think the funniest one I did was on a graded coin from a dealer I had bought from before. First the coins was a date and...
Won't argue with the rest of your points, but I do have questions on the last couple of points. First - how can you guarantee it will be cheaper?...
I thought nitwit was like NGC since he mentioned them grading incorrectly? So yes some clarity might make me change my guesses - well not the...
I thought there was one that was like 16 and knew like every variety of large cent(or something like that) by memory? I remember reading an...
I second this - bring in the YN's to the forum. It is fun seeing the excitement of some of them in this hobby. Like reading BQ's posts for...
Actually he was around before the snake. :)
Just attach pictures of the real coin. The pictures of the auction almost look like they put a green light on it. Will be interesting to compare...
Someone should do a poll - agree with Doug, agree with Paul, both have some truth I agree with. Those would be the options. I do like the...
