Might be right Mike, but in the back of my head there was other little piece of info rattling around. Zane made a comment in one of the other...
Haven't we talked about this coin before ? Or was that just another '87 with a weak strike ? The coin doesn't even deserve a 63 and they gave...
Sure glad to see you're consistent Mike :D
I'm told it doesn't work quite the same on silver as it does on nickel, but you could use Nik-A-Date.
Jim I'm confused. In this pic you show 2 coins in the Verdigone solution (marked with a V) - what happened to the second coin ?
Killer coin ! Monticello is just about all there :thumb:
Out of all the coins posted on this forum, one of you please name the time that a TPG dropped the grade of a coin because of a weak strike. I...
Zane I gotta say - you're making me work here pal ! Lot's of killer coins you've been posting. I gotta say AU55 on this, too much luster gone...
Amen !
Boy I don't know what you guys are seeing, or rather not seeing, but based on the pics I'd have to say that coin is AU. Looks like light wear on...

The coin would definitely be considered damaged but not because of the toning. It's been harshly cleaned but it also has a huge rim ding on the...
Over the years we've discussed this on numerous occasions. Even had one of the members post microscope pics of the surfaces of various coins...
Personally I think it should get a 50 but I'm gonna guess PCGS said 53.
Yes, of course. But I still think the coin has been wiped. I just don't buy all of those marks being on the slab and I think the 63 grade...
Going by ANA standards - yes. Going by TPG standards - no.
Fair enough, I eagerly await the results.
Because it just doesn't have the look that most AT coins do. The toning appears to be part of the surface, not laying on top. And because I have...
Well usually Joe when people make a claim like that, saying that you know for sure it is happening, they usually have reason to think that - like...
Now that the auction is closed, check the pics now that they aren't the flash version. I'll grant that the white specs may be tape residue,...
