I'm not sure if you have that Morgan in hand, but photography can be manipulated to make the cameo appear stronger than it may be in hand.
I'm afraid you've missed the boat. There are several of those outfits already. You need to start a company that grades the grades of the graders...
This doesn't have an appearance like much of the toned gold I've seen. Toned gold doesn't usually have that smooth, uniform appearance, because...
If you want to learn how to grade, and want to learn a lot of the terminology, I high recommend a book that I wrote called "The Art and Science of...
Every series is going to have changes like this, if it runs for more than a couple of years. The master just wears out, and they have to...
@dougsmit is an extremely knowledgeable and helpful individual. I'm sure he'll be pleased to hear about the impact he's had on your collecting life.
There are 2 reasons to buy high grade slabbed moderns: 1. You want a strong resale value, and view these coins as investments. You'll pay a lot,...
I concur, natural enough to definitely be market acceptable. Yes, dipped coins may have a washed out and grainy look. However, I don't see that...
I would return it and get a better one. It appears to have been struck through. Minor strikethroughs like this will not get designated as an...
Are you going to be attending a show while you are here? Or just in general, are you asking for US based dealers of Bust halves? The 4 listed...
The Walker is by far my favorite on regular issue US coinage. I don't track modern bullion or commems, so I have no idea what those might be....
You need the Morgan guys for this question, if they have their own scale. Summoning @messydesk
The obverse of the D is very nice. What does your 56D look like in your A folder, if this is your B coin?
I like it at 63RB. If it was an American coin, I'd say 64.
I voted 55. Realistically, anything which is less than 60 would be acceptable. Anyone who thinks this grades UNC needs to read my book.
I don't have my Overton handy, but I'd call it EF-45. There is a lot of luster present, and there are obvious strike irregularities on the...
We have plenty of them in Charleston, SC. Up north, y'all have to have sloped roofs for that snow nonsense. Here, many of the old houses have flat...
Here's one you don't see all that often. I think I'll go with 64 as well.
I like the grade at 65. Well done on the purchasing. The gullah in the south make some really good goat curry dishes. You have to travel way out...
The bad news: this new coin has been cleaned, and is not original. The good news: it has a higher details grade than your first coin. Your first...
