The obverse sharpness grade is better than VF-20, but the surfaces have issues. The reverse looks like a Fine. It's been net graded, but it's...
Yes, that is much better.
Actually it shows a bit Roman propraganda. The nobles are telling the citizens that they can protect them from the barbarians. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...

It may have been smoothed in the right obverse field and on the left side in back of Ms. Liberty's arm.
There are six 1809 half cent varieties. The 9 over 6 is a blundered die. The die sinker punched the “9” in upside down and then corrected it. It’s...
It looks very unnatural to me as if it’s been cleaned. Take out a brand new cent and compare it to this one. If the 1902 plays with the light...

These two are among the more famous Roman imperial coin rarities. If the portrait has hair, it's Gordian I, the father [ATTACH] If he's bald,...
I think that you might have both adjustment marks and damage. The thicker lines in the center of the obverse look like adjustment marks. The other...
I bought this one when I was a dealer and kept it. It's NGC graded AU-58, but it would not shame a Mint State type set. [ATTACH]
Here are a couple of real ones. This one is in my one a year cent set. It's graded EF-45. [ATTACH] I bought this one raw from a member of the...
I gave up on the base metal Proof sets more than 10 years ago. I have collected only the silver sets after the State Quarter ended in 2009. With...
The obverse and reverse of the 1968-S cent look like two different coins. The obverse is an easy “BU.” The reverse is a scruffy AU. The Ike...
