MS 66….not full steps (steps under 3rd column are fused together) …and I’m thinking ICG slab
Thanks! I will likely do a thread to detail my progress so far. I am trying to stick to a reasonable budget but it still adds up. It's also funny...
It might upgrade in grade but losing the DMPL is definitely a possibility with the more stringent standards. It would also have to go MS 64 PL to...
Apmex tends to photoshop coins into slab photos. This one isn't as bad as some I've seen but the proportions look off. The Buffalo Nickel looks...
The people that answer the questions on the phone aren't professional graders and you're lucky if they even know a little bit about coins. You...

The reveal: AU 58 DMPL ....the photos aren't optimal to show the deep mirrors but they are there. Standards might have been looser for dmpl back...

Au details cleaned
AU; maybe even a slider ...can't tell from the photo, but I'm potentially seeing evidence of a cleaning
Some nice additions!

I didn't really notice any obvious doubling. Maybe just the photo?
Please guess the grade. And guess why I'm extra excited by this coin. :D The first photo is from the seller and the next is my attempt to show...
I like the squirrel. Nice set!

Nice set! I'm glad to have been responsible for a few. :)
