Well, Messydesk has done it again. This guy is a wizard with a camera! Take a look at his pics below. He also attributed it for me, and after...
Well, good for you, I guess. But dang, I'd call that seriously overgraded... just my opinion. Even with these different pics, that one tops out at...
Damn, Bob, that's amazing.
The problem with trying to sell items on an auction site without much traffic is amply illustrated here by the OP.

You don't have to post the slabs, just show us the coins! I'm really curious to see the coins you thought deserved stars, but which didn't get...
I know you are joking, but I am a nuke-ular physicist myself. My nuke-ular physics professor pronounced it as "nuke-ular," and many of the people...
All I see is a die chip. I think you are imagining the "piece of the die"
I don't see whatever it is you are talking about.
I'll say the same thing I pretty much always say: if you are interested in errors, you should buy a book on the subject and read it. However, in...
