The strike is surprisingly good for a New Orleans Morgan. Luster looks average, eye appeal is aided by the patina. Unfortantely, the poor girl...
I looked for a while at the pictures to try and figure that out, but I really didn't see any discoloration/flattening/luster breaks on her cheek...
I really like the toning on that one, Marco
You have to admit, that's actually a pretty great idea. You could have water slides that end in the tiger cages, and you could flood the whole...
I like the lion rider. I think the cracked flan would bother me, though.
It seems like Byzantine coins get a bad rap, but there are plenty of attractive examples. Because they aren't as popular, it seems like they are...
Some of us buy them slabbed and then keep them that way. I know, shocking, right? ;) And I agree about the Rhodes types - that obverse image is...
Oh, is it? Tampa is about the limit of what I'll drive. I did enjoy the Tampa area last year, that was a really nice show.
It was super janky when I was trying to post photos for my Fort Moultrie thread yesterday.
Let me rephrase: I have submitted about a dozen ANACS holders to NGC for crossover. Some came back the same, some came back less, and one came...
I think the most obvious for me are the weird shapes of the stars, and the clearly strange arrows. Everything has a generally "bloated"...
My initial reaction to your OP was "those pictures are too dark to tell anything" In your second, more well lit pictures, there are some...
Between the two, I'd pick the 1799. The large mark on the breast of the eagle on the 1800 is a major detractor. Both of them appear to have...
ANACS and ICG are highly variable. They are inconsistent at best. Sure, some of their coins coincidentally wind up accurately graded, but even a...
Impressive assortment. I'm looking for one for type, but they always elude me (the condition I want, prooflike, is very scarce).
I see nothing AT about that Franklin. It is quite attractive.
It maxes out at 63, I think. The haziness of the obverse surfaces is unattractive, and will bring the grade down.
I doubt it will sell out. It is an expensive coin, and there are a lot of them.
The time to make reservations was months ago. I'd be surprised if there were a lot of rooms left. Book them now! I will not be going to FUN this...
Photobucket has been sucking big time for a while now. It's not you, it's them.
