Looks like maybe somebody just rubbed it to death. Like if you rub a zincoln long enough you could rub the copper plating right off. That's what...
Hmmm... watching a slow rockies game (0-0 top of the 5th) and decided to give a little bump to this thread before tomorrow morning's reveal. So...
Oh very cool idea. Cant wait to see all it completed, or almost anyways.
You have probably said but why 1858 for a business strike set?
I believe it is. It is a very fine crack, not really visable in hand.
This one is the last and probably most surprising coin from my recent NGC submission. Purchased raw a few years back on ebay for $35. [ATTACH]...
Only like 9000 minted too!
It has good luster and thin hints of purple and blue toning in the right light. Maybe they didnt like the strike. Not sure.
Ok reveal time! Im not real pleased with this grade. Ive seen 1927's in MS-65 with more hits. I personally though it should be 64 but here's what...
1683 Charles II 3 pence PCGS VF35 [ATTACH] 1824 George IV 1 pence [ATTACH] 1922 4 pence [ATTACH]
Hey Ed's in before the answer!
I bought this one raw for about $300 under NGC's price. Pretty lucky I came across it really. They are getting tougher and tougher to find raw....
64+
Yup not a Lincoln. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
[ATTACH] Where do I get me Matte Proof Mafia card at?
Alright I shall make it easier. This is infact a matte proof. And it is straight graded
It's a little tiny rim ding.
It seems to me that they were struck by the same dies, but I might be thinking of a different coin.
This is the last Lincoln I swear [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Ok ok here is the answer: [ATTACH] Im just happy I finally got a 65 on a brown cent.
