I have this raw Standing Liberty quarter and four mediocre pictures. Is it possible to guess a grade? In hand, the coin has a light purple cast...
Thanks, everyone. I hope the original poster learned as much as I did. I can be pretty thick-skinned about the actual grade, when any coin has...
I couldn't afford 66 anyway!
[ATTACH] I took a closer photo so I could see what that was. It is there, but ties in directly to the bridge of the nose, so looks bigger than it...
Here they are. It's blinding, so the pictures had to cope with that complication.[ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Oh, excellent day! I was hoping this was under graded! :D [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Were the sets graded when you got them? Did you have them graded?
Go to the NGC and PCGS web sites and look at the prices for your year. Let's say you guess it is grade XXX. You may be off on your guess. So look...
The very thought leaves me breathless.:arghh:
I second that - WOW! Very appreciative!

No worries - these were about $15; I also think I am getting more than that back in education today. As I mentioned to insider, I have this 1926...
Intriguing! I will work on a photo. In the meantime, one of the other two from the same source did look worse. There is a lump on the reverse...
The photo is very flat, yes. In hand, the reverse has very natural looking cartwheel luster, while the obverse has luster behind the head but...
I edited the eBay picture by eye to try to match the color in hand. [ATTACH] If this orange-yellow was toned down a bit, that would be ideal. So,...
Let's see if we can get back on track - we can use my example. I bought raw coins online. Before I bought, I copied the images from eBay to...
I have five Lincoln cents that I bought from two dealers. I took them, among others, to a very experienced copper expert. He immediately set them...
I now have an overall shot of the reverse set. The cent is not well lit. It is a shiny coppery red with a zone of ruby toning over the vertical...
I have mixed feelings about grading this set. If one of the TPG's could replicate the 5-coin capsule so they stay together, I would, because I do...
