Here is the obverse of a fake 1874-cc that I own. For the most part it looks ok, but the dentils at around 7-8 show extensive pitting, there is a...
Late to the party, but FAKE! Terrible dentils, and the 'wear' on obv/rev does not match. Spike off 2nd L in DOLLAR, E in FINE is messed up, wrong...
another one with the patina of having been through hundreds of hands and pockets: [IMG] [IMG]
It's a really nice pick, so many of them are dipped out or harshly cleaned.
Wow, that's fantastic toning. Maybe one of the old Wayte Raymond albums?
I'm thinking xf40 or au50, depending on the luster. It looks nice and original to me, a great coin!
This is a very interesting discussion about an interesting coin! Not being a Morganologist, I decided to go back to Jim Halperin's useful site on...
I'm amazed that these things still turn up in bank rolls! Nice finds! here is a 1918-d: [IMG] [IMG]
Thanks, I agree with that!
Here is another image, post-degunking. if the 7 is like a ball-peen hammer pointed to the left, there is a repeat of the hammer's striking surface...

Looks like it was stored in an envelope or an old album to me. What about this one? [IMG] [IMG]
Magman, I like the look of that Walker- very original Lehigh must have had to dig deep to find a circulated Walker in his collection- and his...
I believe it's been whizzed, it appears to have been covered with a heavy black crust that probably qualifies as corrosion. Where it has been...
FACE value???? I'll say that's a deal! keep 'em comin', folks.
Very nice! Without all the clutter, you really get the feeling that Liberty is watching her... or your .... back. I wish they had left the stars...
I don't find the spot to be much of a distraction, it's tiny and on a small coin. It's just when you blow it up to cantaloupe size that it becomes...
Cool coin! I wonder how many original Coca-Colas and malteds that dime bought in its day?
I am definitely no steelie expert, but I see no wear on that coin.
I like that 1838 O-mint! very nice details. It seems very well struck for an N.O. product.
