Nice overdate. Yours is the B-1 die marriage, R-2. The obverse was repunched from the 1805 B-4. The reverse was used for the 1805 B-4 and also...
I don't see why PCGS gave this a grade of 40. The new photo shows much better color than the yellow tint of the earliest photos. And both sides...
I like the coin although I can see where some folks might not like the degree of toning. Also makes estimation of luster difficult on top of...
Not yet. I did compare the diameters I needed and it looks like the only ones that will fit the raw coins I want to self-slab with these are the...
Here's mine. I would appreciate opinions on my assigned grades for the raw coins. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Anyone tried the Defender self slabs that Coin Supply Express flogged to me in an email? Opinions? They only make them to fit modern diameters...
Just bought it off Amazon to fill a huge hole in my library reference material. Thanks for the tip.
I believe this coin is undergraded at 64. I've seen many worse in 65 holders. This one is so much nicer. If mine, I think I'd send it to CAC...
Then I'm in at 65 BN. It just doesn't have quite enough to make to RB, IMO. It's a very nice coin.
I'm going with MS-64 BN. I'd have called it 65 except for that "something" at A3 on the reverse. I downloaded and blew it up but still couldn't...
My LCC has two meetings a month and we usually have a presentation at the second meeting. We allocate about 15 minutes for the presentations...
Thanks. I was looking for the coconut filling.
Well, I see the obverse die crack from rim through the upright of 4 and then to the bust that is LDS for S-22. I also see the reverse die bulge...
I don't think those are die cracks, rather look like scratches to me. Anyway, I can't make it look like S-21. The obverse looks more like S-58...
I've run into this before where the database is just messed up. A call or email to the TPG will get them to look into it. I had this on a coin...
Uninspired but WTH.
I agree with this sentiment and others about the 1804 restrikes and 1933 DEs. These are not authorized "coins" and while rare, are outside the...
Picked this one up from a fellow member at last night's LCC meeting. Clean for the grade of G-04 and the WB-5 die marriage, an R-4. Didn't...
I don't see anything illegal, immoral or fattening about posting images and truthful comments of any kind about coins that are being offered for...
Nice coin. And yes, it's odd how the lighting in a photograph will show up things off or through toning that are subdued or hidden when observed...
