The grade seems right to me, but the pictures are a bit bright. Ignoring the PL part, it seems like a coin of average eye appeal and luster,...
I find myself pretty much in agreement with Skyman on this one. I hate most of the designs. Obverse 4/4A is the only one I'd call presentable,...
Strongest clashed E of the series. That becomes a tough one in XF-AU. They're usually found in F-VF. I can't tell from the pictures if it would...
I have no problem with the VG8 grade. I gave some benefit of the doubt saying VG10, but the differences between 8 and 10 are very slight. F12...
Might want to move this to the Ancients forum.
VG10. The wheat lines aren't quite fully separated on the right stalk and half of them are gone on the left.
There's a lot to look through. Many typeface no-nos -- stick to one font with subtle serifs. There are several I don't like, but that amounts to...
The simplest answer to what happened is the coin had a bad run-in with chemicals. Dip, bleach, Coin doc cocktail, I couldn't tell you.
It had changed, but not improved. The models were already gone, so they had to make new ones quickly by copying a coin. The result was something...
By 1917, there were no coins left that could support larger mint marks, so there was no use for the large punches. Along comes the 1921 Morgan,...
While I can't make a call from your picture, the likely explanation is die fatigue. This tends to blur and distort outside edges of finer details...
Postage to me is the same as postage to PCGS, so that's a wash. Postage from me to PCGS is split up, so with a few submitters, it's very little....
Here's where a single picture isn't working. Hairlines from cleaning often hide until the light is just right, then they pop out at you. Tip and...
I hate to be a wet blanket, but it looks cleaned in the second obverse picture.
Seems like a split collar.
I just took a look through TVs of other 66s and 67s. OP was robbed.
While Remington developed the QWERTY layout, there's actually no proof anywhere showing exactly why it was established. The popular belief that...
Not CC, because they didn't make coins in 1898. Not O, because it looks circulated. Probably S, because that's where the money is in this...
There is a limit of 500 participants for these. You don't have to be an ANA member to enroll. The Morgan dollar class I'm teaching currently has...
I posted this a few days ago on the PCGS forum, so a handful of you have probably already seen this. Hopefully, the rest of you find this cool....
