Looks pretty clear in that picture, including the lower left corner of the base of the 2. [img]
Take it out of the 2x2 for the picture, then adjust the light so that you have longer shadows. The surface of the coin is making it hard to pick...
I don't have a problem with an XF grade on that. Nice score!
Most people wouldn't have bought the 1917, as it is a cleaned, low-grade coin worth maybe 10c. If you thought this coin was much more than that...
Executing a variation on the "Statue of Liberty" bid by standing up in front of the room with a raised bid paddle in each hand. The "Ramp...
You'd need an appropriate graphic for the label. How about a picture of a studious-looking collector at a computer with a drink in one hand and a...
Your poll having only 3 choices is biasing people's responses. I do like it though. I can't choose between 63 and 64 given the pics, so I'll...
Could be MS64, could be AU58. Can't tell from pictures. 78-S is not a rare coin, so if you want one in 64, there are plenty available from which...
Not a chance. AU58 or cleaned. The hairlines look fairly random, but I can't tell for sure. O mint Morgans were well struck from 79-81, then...
I find myself in agreement with the thread title, and yet look forward to seeing what gets posted.
I agree that 81-S is a good year for a Morgan dollar type coin. Also look at 80-S. The luster characteristic is a little different in that the...
I'd slab it. If it could grade 63 or higher (looks like it could), you're talking a pretty big jump in value from 62 that would easily offset the...
XF40, concerned about color and green crud.
64? I suppose I could guess 63-66, but since that's 90% of the population of 82-S, it wouldn't be a very risky guess.
I agree on all accounts. I'd have no problem seeing an MS63 strap on this coin, and wouldn't be surprised to see MS64, but I'm grading on vibes...
Save your time, money, and gas. This is not a rare coin, it won't sell for under spot at auction (if real), and that's before the buyer's fee....
Standard grading from a photo disclaimers notwithstanding, I've seen GSA CCs that look like that on the obverse graded 64. This looks like a...
There are a lot of coins that sort of fit the VAM 5 description. The date on this one is too far to the left to fall into that category, though,...
45. Very nice coin, luster of an AU, but too much wear.
Cleaned AU
