In lower grades, this is a key date. Above 63, however, this date is only semi-key. How would you grade her? I'd WAG 63 on those pictures, but...
Nope, not at all. Wear is the only factor in the grade of circulated coins. I'm getting a lot more push-back on this than I thought... Very well....
Nah, I'm all for Miss Liberty gracing our coins again, but I want new designs. The old designs were interesting, beautiful, or reflective of their...
Are there any countries with designs that you find particularly attractive? Or that has a history that you find interesting? Perhaps somewhere...
These appear quite large. I'm guessing they're a bit larger than a silver dollar? Always cool to pick up some really rare pieces, and that first...
That yours? The color and originality of that piece is stunning. Absolutely gorgeous! Could you tell use more about it? Hard to read the...
Haha, fair enough. I'm not EAC grading though, that stuff is crazy. Contact marks definitely affect the value, though.
Since baseball has opened up the floor, I'll go! This is an NGC MS-66* FBL. Luster is much stronger than my images show: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

That is one rough looking coin. Good luck!
I don't know what a horticultural medal is. Type the words into google exactly as you see them. You'll probably find what you are looking for.
This coin spent time in a parking lot, being run over by large trucks. This thing has been so damaged by the ravages of time that it's not even...
What you show is all relatively modern, circulated, and quite common. These pieces are essentially pocket change, and worth basically face value.
Ouch. Wow.
Strike: Appears well struck. There is none of that "planchet roughness" BS on his jaw, and the columns are all clear. Luster: Appears to be quite...
Your question is way too vague. Do you want to know about prices? Do you want to know if anyone else collects them? Do you want to know about the...
I think 58 is generous. Your pictures clearly show a circulated coin. I would not have been surprised by a 55 or 53 (although 53 is not used...
Are there any books with a more long-term historical perspective? I try to avoid books that were written during (or shortly after) the events...
