Don't forget about the purple ones. They went extinct a while back, though.
Cleaned. Can't say one way or another about the mint mark. It is consistent with some of the coins pictured on PCGS CoinFacts, but this is one...

My D610 is a 24 MP camera storing 14 bits per channel. Only one channel lives at each pixel, so to store that uncompressed would be 48 MB. The...
The side of any building or mailbox seems fair game there. Or did you want privacy?
DSLRs have had this format for a long time. It's not necessarily uncompressed, but it's lossless compression of the raw detector data along with...
Here's an example of what I am referring to. Note that the rim is sort of smashed in places. Also, the design on the ring overlapped the rim of...
I bought my Nikon D80 in 2007 with proceeds from the sale of a couple 2007 Washington $1 in PCGS First Day holders with missing edge lettering....
PMD. This coin was encased in a "Lucky Penny" or other similar ring. The long bits you see on both the obverse and reverse rim are from the...
The 5 1899-O Micro O Morgan dollar die pairs identified in VAM are not counterfeit. A genuine 1899-O VAM 6 was the host coin for the counterfeit...
You snooze, you lose!

Good to hear the seller cancelled it. Before he pitches the coin in the trash, it is quite possibly good gold worth about $63.
Fake. Lots of bumps in the reverse fields, no reverse denticles, weak obverse. You'll get a non-paying bidder mark against you if you don't pay....
Important? Typically not. People are doing it because it's a hobby they enjoy.
The Mint screwed a lot of the bigger players in this market by lifting the limit on the quarters. They're going to be more gun-shy about buying...
Nice stuff! The 53-S Franklin is definitely above average, even if it probably won't get a FBL designation. I would try it, though. The only...
If you want to collect them all, then collect them all, but be aware that mint issued collectibles tend to lose value over time more often than not.
That's for a 64PL. I see 63PL on this one, so figure $2,250. ;)
Medal turn makes it read correctly when the coin is worn on a chain. That style is quite common for monograms like this. You even see it when...
