Hard to guess from the photo. There seems to be some break in the luster on Lib's cheek and also on the Eagle wingtips. This would argue for an...

Here's my ecu of the Convention. I found the photo backup on my external HDD which I'm using for centralizing all coin photos. This is a nice ms...
"Post a coin you've had to pay a premium for" Ouch. For some reason this one always comes to mind. The most common date of the 3 date run of...

Had I known the pop of 66's was so low for the Bust Dimes I would've stayed at 65+. NGC is very variable on grading of foreign. Just got in a...
