I would probably not bother grading this one. There is almost no price difference from 61-63, and I don't see this grading 64. The strike-thru...
I don't want to make this sounds like an "I told you so" post, but here's what I see. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] $5000 gross sales for a big ad?...
XF45 cleaned.
Machine doubling. Look how the secondary image on both As in AMERICA is squashed and a little larger than the primary A.
If you can't decide, perhaps it would be best to buy neither, and instead look for a problem free coin that doesn't make you want to buy a problem...

Perhaps it was an early 19th century equivalent of writing "wheresgeorge.com" on a $1 bill. Maybe somewhere there's one that says both "Philad."...
I think it said 18th century. Unfortunately, the audio guide I had wasn't working and I couldn't get further details on it. The website of the...
They seem to be silvered bronzes, but I don't really care if I'm right about that or not, because this is a damn cool chalice at the Schatzkammer...
No red flag yet based on the pictures. Not that the coin doesn't have problems, I just can't tell from the pictures.
That chart sure does it for me. Where do I sign up? o_O
The weather in Frankfurt sure looked nicer than it was in Munich today.
PMD, of course. As for what caused it, I'll quote Bill Fivaz and say, "I'm not sure. I wasn't there when it happened."
