How was the album stored exactly? I keep ALL of my proofs in airtites....and that's just the first layer of protection I use.
Hard to tell from those pics, but I agree with at least a 65. NICE COIN!
Crap, I missed two rounds!
Ahhhh man....how did I miss this?
1909 S/S I picked raw from a dealer for $175. Sent it to NGC and it came back MS62.
2000 WAM, in "junk" bin for $0.50. :)
Easy 64RD, $80 coin....nice.
1909 AU, about a $15 coin.
On a WAM the FG should be closer to the memorial, looks like a normal CLAM to me. Sometimes that little gap shows between the A and the M on a CLAM.
The image on the obverse is reversed, you're first clue that this is damage and not an error.
Tough, though coin in MS grades....finding one with red is very difficult. I looked for years too.
Sorry, no it won't. You have to use an acid-thioureas dip to remove that.
Desirving grade, I bet that's a sweet coin in hand.
In first.....at least until the next round. :D LOL Thanks Dick

I'd like to see the full paper, the little tidbits on the web don't tell us much of anything. However, I did google the first author, he looks to...
No, that was VERDI-GONE, not VERDI-CARE. Nonetheless, it made me laugh because VG would have definately been 100% undetectable using their...
