As someone who's already got mine, I have no objection to small-quantity runs. :) I took a closer look at the edge than I normally do, and it set...
That's one of the best reference images I found. One corollary: don't ever even try to restore a date on a Type I SLQ. You can tell whether it's...
Post-Michelin Damage.
Is anyone else seeing rather rough edges along the rim of the 2-oz? I'll see if I can get pictures later.

I've looked some, and I haven't been able to find any reference to pickups that would let you distinguish within major types. The closest I've...
There's a per-auction cap on final value fees, but not per-quarter. Otherwise eBay would lose their shirts with high-volume sellers. The cap used...
I can't see any sign of recessed dates with confidence in the coins you show, except that 27 you mentioned.
It's easy to distinguish Type 1 coins by the position of the eagle on the reverse, even if they're worn almost flat. (No stars under the eagle for...
Separate names with a comma.
