Well, you might want to get NGC involved. The dealer has a big NGC logo on their site, presumably because they're an authorized NGC dealer, and...
You could use your hand as a reflector, which would effectively diffuse the light, but also discolor it. I have a white glove here somewhere, so...
Some bits of tid: 1. The 64-D Peace dollar was struck and you can't have one. 2. 74 Lincolns were struck in aluminum and all but those...
Don't use your hand. It can affect the color of the light. I suppose you could wear white gloves, though.
Another difference I was trying to see on the picture was the position of the inner wreath compared to the outer curve of the D. It should be...
Tough call with the wear, but I'm thinking it's VAM 67.
A generalization of what tell the mint is simply, "Put me in charge of what you make and I'll be happy with what you make."

Size differences are more dramatic with the larger coins. The gold SLQ is 22 mm in diameter, while a quarter is 24.3 mm. A nickel is 21.2 mm....
Not really. I already have it sold.
I couldn't complete the sale on Chrome. Browser would hang up on confirmation and gray out that step. Switched to IE and no problem.
So that's what you call them. Oh, wait. You actually did mean rivets. Never mind.
I agree that there's not an 85% chance of the grade bumping to 65. Maybe a 25% chance, though. Would you pay $120 for a 1 in 4 shot at a $5K...
Nice group of 39 Oregons! I didn't play before you posted, but I would have guessed easy 66 on all 3. I assume, since the premiums for gold...
Early dimes, half dimes, and gold also bore no denomination. This wouldn't have been considered terribly unusual at the time, since British...
