No, it isn't a PO-1. And I really don't understand the people that collect these. At all.
I really don't see what the advantage of this would be over a discussion forum like this. The best way to show coins online is, and always will...
I certainly don't try to be negative. I try to give an honest opinion. My opinion is based on 20+ years in the hobby, and the experience and...
1.) If you had posted this as a guess the grade, plenty of people would (probably) have said UNC. 2.) The cleaning has made it just shiny enough...
The D on yours really looks... smooshed. Compared to a normal D, yours is much thinner, and the inside loop is compressed. Combine that with the...
Let me rephrase: A cud, BY DEFINITION, is a die break that occurs at the rim of the coin (a cud will always touch the rim).
Don't take offense by this: I really don't think #1 is natural. The colors don't look right, they don't behave correctly on the surface of the...
I usually keep Stars when I find them, for curiosities sake (I realize that the ones I find in circulation really aren't worth anything)....
VF? Haha, that's not even close! However, I do see a bunch of green spots that you need to take care of. Look around the date, the left obverse...

ASEs are silver bullion rounds. I definitely do not include them.
It very well may be. But this is a VF with a hole.
See my post above ;)
Those new pics are much more in focus. A couple of other things jump out at me in the new pics, which alter my opinion, but I'll see if anyone...
Yes, the pics are blurry, which doesn't help of course. I don't see significant flattening, which is why I give a 53 grade (and the seller...
Uhhh... not sure if you are proving my point, or arguing it....
.... Hahahahah. No. The Ike is the exact same diameter as the Seated, Trade, Morgan, and Peace dollars. They were all 38.1 mm. The Flowing Hair...
Clearly AU. No question about it. The seller would have probably said 55 or 58, but I like it better at 53.
If you can't see it with a 10x, it isn't worth it.
Still nope. Compare yours to any other coin. You'll see they match - that's part of the design, with some possible strike doubling.
Separate names with a comma.
