Well, it's significantly overgraded. That should be a 66 at most. However, if you like buying plastic labels, go for it.
The "cap and rays" design is a classic motif on Mexican coinage. It's kind of like the eagle on American coinage.
It is interesting to note that Liberty's weight has varied throughout the ages. Liberty is always a beautiful woman - but she reflects the ideals...
Okay, now I see the cleaning on the obverse. AU details. If you got it for a good price, still a decent coin.
Those coins are all going to need an acetone bath!
I'd want better pictures or a solid return policy to bid strongly, but it has potential. It could be an attractive UNC coin. It could also be a...
The term is also applied to certain coins which have been improperly annealed. As far as I know, these primarily apply to Jeffersons.
"Black Beauty" is a misnomer. The coins described as such are ugly. They have thick, black, unappealing, terminal toning. I once saw a dealer...

I see some of these sketches, with the shading and all, and they look quite nice. I'm really curious to see how this translates into an actual...

Well, congrats on the 67RD. I definitely think it is overgraded - those tickmarks on his should should preclude the 67 grade, even if the luster...
I actually like these designs. I think I know that the Platinum coin changes designs every year, but I have absolutely no idea what any of the...
I agree that it is AU, but I'm not convinced it was cleaned. I see no evidence of that on the reverse, at least. The obverse pictures are too...
I agree that the "Mega Red" edition is very nice. Each edition highlights a different denomination, so pick the edition that you are most...
Rolls of late date wheats will never be worth more than a few bucks. $20 for the roll, as messydesk indicates, is probably a good deal....
I'm not sure people liked and admired the coin so much as they liked and admired the person. The coin has never really been used much - even...
Separate names with a comma.
