The stuff by UM is damage to the coin. Pity, since it otherwise has a nice look to it for a coin of that grade.
As 17 were graded, I would imagine it wasn't difficult for the graders to compare them with each other and assign grades once some sort of...
Acetone won't fix the spots on the OP's coin. Those are verdigris spots, where "verdigris" is a fancy term for "green rust."
The NGC forum had frequent issues with spammers and scammers creating a bogus account and posting their crap, usually totally unrelated to coins....
Based on the pictures, I don't see the 81-O grading 65. That's a big jump in price from 64 and the coin needs to be all there for a 65. The nick...
I have a dishwasher safe keyboard that I rescued from a discard pile that I'm not using. Works fine. USB cable is quite short, so it would need...
I'll be at the ANA show in Denver from Thursday through Saturday set up for all your imaging needs. $10/coin includes front, back, slab,...
Your head would look funky, too, if you washed your face with a bench grinder.
Scotch-Brite victim. Worth melt.
If it's uncirculated, you did OK. No idea if it's common or rare, but there's not enough demand for it to matter.

They do look to be all the same die pair (I'm going with VAM 21A), which means they were not likely dispersed into circulation (i.e., they're...
The 88-O Morgan is an oval O, VAM 17. The grade looks to be FR2, but as such is would be a pop. 1, none lower at PCGS (two are currently graded...
I think I'm going to start calling Indian Cents "Oakies" instead.
Here are some cents I pulled from an old Whitman folder. I've probably posted them here before, but bits are cheap, so here they are again. The...
Seems Fine-ish. Neat coin!
That has little to do with an actual Morgan dollar. Several years ago, Whitman released a book authored by Karen Lee that was mostly Morgan's...
VAMs 5 and 32 are the toughest, 6 is probably the easiest. Any in AU and higher are tough, and pop tops of any of them are 5-figure cons.
Well, you'll be smelling more weed, anyway.
I think the premium (if any) will be gone by the time your coins are back from grading. You'll have to submit under show grading, which I'm...
Separate names with a comma.
