Might want to tag @brg5658, as I believe he's a "horse coin" afficionado. (Apologies if I'm wrong.)
You have to take the R-numbers with a grain of salt. They are estimates based on how likely it should have been that a given variety was already...
I'm actually sort of working on a mint mark set of $5 Libertys. I always thought it would be cool. It's not a "top priority" set of mine, but...
The shield design on the cent has some incuse lettering.
I'm guessing that when it was listed (2013), the person that sent it in didn't care about any collar clash, since there was a major interior die...
There is nothing abnormal about the posted coin that I can see from the photos.
Just added "lower hair" to the 1922 VAM page so that I don't miss this one with keyword searches again. Of course, it's also plain as day in the...
I'll trade a rack of ribs for that coin right now.
Not sure that the Peace dollar is VAM 2BB. Many have cracks in roughly the same spot, so VAM 2BB is probably a frequent misattribution of these...

I don't see strike issues with that coin. 78-CC is typically well struck, and this is no exception.
62-63. The picture of it in the flip shows the surfaces the best. There's an outside chance it's an AU58, but I can't make that conclusion from...
Nice win!
I found a conveniently located, highly rated Airbnb place for about $200 for 3 nights. Hotels are bloody expensive during the show.
A rude storefront where you can't see the merchandise before buying stuff priced at full retail? Move on. Buy at shows, use preloaded debit...
Cool! I agree that if it's cleaned, it's not badly cleaned.
I'm not sure you would actually need something as huge as you think. I would imagine that the tactile precision of the average blind person that...
Reported. (Finally looked at the full-size picture and realized why nobody took issue with my initial assessment. Yuck!)
I don't see a patch of highly orderly hairlines on this coin. The lines that show up the most in a photo with a hard, direct light will be those...
Fake. The skirt lines are way too strong for 1918, and I don't like the shape of the date.
Separate names with a comma.
