Yup, that's a pretty cool one, especially to find in a roll. A blank that has not yet gone through the upset mill is known as a Type 1, after the...
Pricing a toned Morgan can be tricky. There are a lot of factors that go into it. I highly encourage you to read this link several times. When you...
Old ANACS used to designate PL on any coin that met their standards. Unfortunately, their standards weren't quite up to snuff. I've bought several...
Whatever, man. You have fun. You obviously know more than the rest of us. Enjoy.
To show you I'm not just blowing smoke (well, you've made up your mind. Let me rephrase: to educate the rest of the board): these are the only...
I don't see it. Not a single one of the details in the OP's coin matches the one you posted. There may be some doubling of the rays (are there...

Dude, if someone seriously offered you $800+ for that, take the money and run.
I can't make out the last digit in the date in your pics. I'm assuming in hand it is clear. If you can't make the last digit out, then its...
Anyone who bids on that is an idiot. I don't even feel sorry for them losing their money.
Good start. Look also at: the date, the headband, the hair details, the dentils, all lettering, the stars, the eagle's head, the eagle's wings,...
I don't know about attributing these. The odds are not in your favor, however.... NC stands for "Non-collectible." These varieties are very...
As long as it has been removed from the environment of the foreign contaminant, the toning should stop. The contaminant is no longer present, so...
