Your pictures are out of focus. Try again, with better lighting. See if your camera has a "macro" mode, which takes better pictures of closeup...
Not gonna lie, John, I really don't like either of these. The splotchy reverse of the 1820 has significant negative eye appeal, and the spotty,...
I suppose the easy way is just to buy the set pre-assembled:...
F/VF details, scratched. That reverse scratch is old, but it is *deep*
Very interesting. Any idea how many dies were used for 1862? With a total mintage of 343,000, it was probably only 2? or 3? die pairs?
It is one of my favorite coins, and one of the highlights of my collection. Even though its tiny!

When I bought my trime, I asked a few dealers at the time if it might be a Proof. They pointed out to me many of the things I'm now mentioning....
Yup, that video confirms in my mind that it is a very attractive PL business strike. I think PCGS got this one right.
Haha, I think you've been away for awhile. I sold most of my Franklins. I'm full-bore into a Prooflike set now. See my main set here:...

Sorry, I guess I wasn't clear. Mine is 67 FT PL.
I am fairly confident you have a business strike coin. If you look at the rims, the are rounded, not crisp and square as you see on the proof. The...
Well, I paid $300 for this Cu-Ni from 1924. The right balance of rarity/quality/value doesn't scare me. How common/available are the Palestinian...
But it's not the one you're expecting! I've wanted one of these for a while. The 1996W Dime was released in mint sets as a special bonus, and...
The Benduqi is a small gold coin of Morocco, weighing 3.5 grams and about the size of a US dime. Gold coins are rare from Morocco. While the...
Agreed, that appears to be a minor lamination.
Major rim ding instantly rules the second one out now, too. Pass on both of these.
I'm going to go with Option C C) Both
