Fairly severe case of MD. Seems to happen a lot for that year.
Hi Brad - what are you looking at? It looks normal to me, but I may be missing what it is you are after. Can you expand on what you think might...
I snagged a few star notes out of circulation over the years, and to that extent, I can say I have some. But, condition is everything. All of...
When you have a coin struck by a die/die set that is LDS or VLDS (late die states), the devices are largely worn out and take on that deteriorated...
@Mark webster Have a look at this marker: does your coin have it? I can see something above the left gate area of the Montello. Do you clearly...
I would do the distilled water, acetone bath, and finish with the VerdiCare. It'll help to stabilize the verdigris even if it doesn't carry it...
@Hookman That is really unusual. But, for a buck at a time...
@Mark webster I posted in your other thread, but will do so here for good measure. We will need better photos to make a better judgement....
PS - conserve that coin (don't clean it...conserve it!). The verdigris looks superficial at this point, but you don't want it to worsen.
Yes, it is an RPM (002). This is a link to the MDS for this:...
Hi Mark - can you get clearer pictures of your coin. Don't freehand your photos; use a heavy object to rest your phone on and steady your camera....
Looking forward to the photos. Take good ones for the obverse and reverse. Your fellow enthusiasts can offer a proper grade perhaps. Glad you...
Yes. The 1921 2-feather lists for $135 in VF20. Only $26 for the 3-feathered normal Buffalo.
Coins like this tend to stand out amongst the rest, but unless you are building an environmentally toned coin collection, there is no real value....
Looking at the Cherrypickers' Guide, it looks like a 2 feather variety for other dates lists for about $50 more than the normal 3 feather design...
I don't see it listed in the Cherrypickers' Guide, but it does look like the other date specimens in the book. Hopefully someone with better...
Yes, it's hard to say to be definitive. But Mary can flip it over and over to see if there is an association between the two.
It may be damaged. I see something going on at 1 o'clock on the obverse which roughly translates to the 5 o'clock position on the reverse. You...
