This has the canary yellow that a well known Ebay coin doctor admitted to creating, and he was able to get a pretty good number of his coins in...
It's a saying that means it's overstuffed and spilling out. There's so much good info that it will take a couple of readings to get it all....
I'm not the MPL expert here, but those "grainy" fields look a lot like a considerable amount of contact marks. The strike is not nearly strong or...
The strike on this one, especially the reverse, is kinda wonky. That's making it hard to grade. I like it at 45, but I could see it going AU-50....
I like this one better at 55, but this is exactly the type of coin that winds up in 58 holders all the time.
So you going to tell us what this is graded or keep us in suspense?
Insider, the answer to your question is C: all of the above and none of the above. You're making a big deal out of the word "luster" - but you of...
I would strongly suspect that these Vatican coins relate basic Bible stories, or encourage good Catholics to perform good deeds (acts of service...

Why have we had 3 separate threads on this guy in the last 2 weeks? I'm sick of this. Drop it. Or respond to one of the other threads. The next...

Typecoin, these pictures are fantastic. One request - when you post the closeups, can you also post a regular shot of the whole coin, so people...
There are a few factors which have hurt the Franklin. I used to be a serious collector of Franklins, built an award-winning set, and then sold it....
Might be cool to compare business strike, proof, and prooflike surfaces under magnification (I honestly would be very interested in that). Might...
The second picture in this post actually makes it look a whole lot like an improper alloy mix. This can be called "planchet streaking", or, when...
Nope, not at all. One of the biggest "oddities" for me here is the fact that the toning at the bottom of the reverse nearly perfectly...
Alright, buddy. You want to play that way? How about we link the whole thread: https://www.cointalk.com/threads/i-have-this-quarter.285763/
You sorta trailed off there.... usually a comma means that there is more to the sentence. Care to finish that thought? As to die states, I'm...
Separate names with a comma.
