These sorts of very simple designs are extremely hard to grade. The amount of wear is very difficult to judge. For this coin, I would grade it...
I want a tiger. Not a coin. I want a real, warm, purring, meat-eating, Calvin-loving tiger.
These are CuNi (similar composition to our Nickel). I'd grade yours VF. It is worth about a dollar.
Well, here's my entry! https://www.cointalk.com/threads/austrian-prooflike-coins.298291/
I've been slowly accumulating a diverse array of prooflike coins from around the world. When I saw these two coins on Ebay recently, I knew that I...

Well, I'm a little bit late to this party, but I would have guessed 65. Strike: 66. I agree that this is a nice strike. Luster: 65. Even in these...
The toning on that coin does not appear natural, from those pictures. Some people will still find it attractive enough to want it, but it...
Dang, that looks nice! I am planning to try this for some of my toned coins as well. I made a similar request to the NGC registry, but I haven't...
Not to sound rude, but do you know what FBL means? Read through this thread, and then report back:...

If the reside was PVC (as I suspect it probably was), there is a good chance the spots are actually damage. A dip won't fix that. It is hard to...
Although, to be fair, I'm probably most proud of my ranking on the "Most Featured Threads" list, another analytic that CT automatically does:...
#89 most generated views for me. I'm proud of that! Time to work harder and move up the list for the next time!
I assume you are referring to the doubling around the A? It looks to either be machine doubling or Longacre doubling (although that is usually...
The weight will be the same. Sometimes you can see the undertype. Sometimes it is difficult to see. It depends.
Pretty sure it is this coin: https://www.cointalk.com/threads/gtg-1881-s-morgan.297561/ It was in a 64 PCGS rattler with an ugly, hazy obverse....
That looks good! It does feel just a little bit fast, but I think part of that may be that there is a fairly large jump between each image. I...
