Sometime over the past 7 years, the coin on the right was exposed to an environment that the coin on the left was not. The copper reacted to this...
65? Hard to tell what kind of marks are on the cheek. I think I see at least one behind the mouth, so I assume there may be another minor one or...
What everyone else said.
Got irradiated a few too many times (i.e., once) in the mail.
If I were in the market for an 1891 in 65, I'd keep looking.
Really hard to see much in the pictures, but I think I see strike doubling on LIBERTY, especially the B.
I say the following as someone who doesn't collect these and doesn't get excited by pop top coins. Great looking, but this would be a coin I...
63. Can't see anything on the cheek in this photo, but I do see some field scuffs, so I'm assuming the cheek isn't any cleaner.
Nice! Put me in the 64 camp. Nothing jumps out at me as being rub that would land it in a 58 holder. Surfaces look original, but not enough...

You could actually get a 1913 Type 1 in 63 for about $40 if you look.
It's a very attractive AU buffalo nickel. I would have guessed AU58. Dealer's price is close to MS63 retail, however, so I would pass. If it...
Nice!
Except the Oreo quarter was "minted" but The Onion. The Australian thing is truly face-palm-worthy reality.
It will not look better after you dip it. Even if it grades after doing so, it'll be very hard to sell.
63-64. Black patches totally kill it for me.
All coins in MS65 will either appreciate or depreciate over time. Or both. Or neither. Pay more attention to buying a coin with really nice...
I seldom look at the mint mark when attributing 1878-S. The key to most of them is the hand-engraved feathers under the eagle's right (viewer's...
I guess the only reason I can think of is that Congress doesn't pass Canadian laws, and the Canadian Parliament doesn't pass US laws. Other than...
Separate names with a comma.
