From what I've seen, a no-cents 1883 is likely to be in much better shape than later dates in the series, just because so many of them were set...
Meh, better than being tossed in the trash, which is the eventual fate of a lot of other "collectibles". But anybody buying from the Mint and...
Whoa! Is that just toning, or actual texture (raised or lowered areas)?
Geeze, what did that cent ever do to you to deserve such treatment? Oh, right, it was struck on a copper-coated zinc planchet. Carry on, then.
A nice pair! That half is better preserved than most from the teens. I think the rim ding by L on the obverse would keep it from grading cleanly,...
Worn and damaged, but still worth keeping, in my opinion!
Yep, if they look shiny and smooth, they're polished. It might still be able to restore the dates by letting them soak in vinegar for a few hours,...
They get inherited, or stolen, or lost and found. Someone takes them to the bank, or spends them, or takes them to a coin dealer who says "they're...

I'm even trying to figure out if it might be a Photoshop healing-brush accident, but no, it really looks legit. Exact size and shape of an obverse...
I signed up in October 1998, I think. Yeah, things were different. I got 50 or 60 positive feedbacks, and my one and only neutral feedback, from...
Struck through dropped star? I dunno...

I don't see how anyone could expect an acceptable CoinTalk discussion to come out of this article. I suspect trolling.
RIP bunny. It was kinda cute. :(
Those are some nice rolls!
It was specifically calling out "Skip at ICG". Not that I understand how she'd expect him to see it, since according to her he's obviously blind...
If only I could get one without subsidizing both PCGS and the Niue "coin"-mill...
Oh, I am so tempted to buy one, crack it out, and cross it to ICG...
I'm thinking that the shipping cost on that listing isn't the only thing she's set at 4.20, if you know what I mean.
