Never mind. That logic is bass ackwards. Were the die dented, the coin would be raised. i.e., what you are saying is correct. When the MM is...
Doug, You are right. I do. Too many ticks to be a 67. Wonderful strike - absolutely, but I have several better most notable my 1917- that PCGS...
Sorry Frank. What you are describing are dies #1, #3, and #4. Die #2 (i.e. strong reverse as was specified by Thad) was the result of a die...
Absolutely no problem on the obverse including the "spots" - every one of them. I would not call it "remaining". It may be a little questionable...
You are assuming that the MM on the punch is taller than the MM is deep on the die regardless of how hard the die is pinched. Are you sure that...

I have not posted a pic here for a while, so here is another I got today. I did not think it was going to make it. The seller got NARU'ed for...
Going through my 1910-'s (see also http://www.cointalk.com/forum/t34312-32/), I ran across this one again. The more I look at it, the more I like...
As for my own opinion, I could care less if you call it an error, a variety, both, or neither. They are not standard issue. Whichever name you...
Nope. I have no reason to believe that it would not slab, but it is AU (55/58). I just posted that one because it is a better pic probably...
Ok
Now that is what a Lincoln should look like - and I am not just talking about the color. Lincoln has a full beard and locks of hair over the ear...
It id called the "poor man's" double die". They are extremely common.
I do mostly also, but not on the thread pages.
I hope that the coins are super. Then I might be able to afford a 70.
Bought them slabbed and, FWIW, I hope not.
And the last one. Actually, this slab is not that great either.
I got these in the mail today. There is only one I am sure they got right and one I am sure is wrong. Lets see if you agree with me or the TPG....
Gotta ask! You did just what I requested Peter to change, right? i.e. hit the remove by accident.
Maybe I don't have the experiences he has had, but I come closer to the depression than he.
