"Protected use" litigation for images posted on the internet only enriches lawyers. While, yes theoretically, the image should always be used...
The relative versus absolute scale was discussed earlier in this thread. If you can read, you should have already seen it there. I get your...
Colors are colors. Thin film optics are a physical process. The fact that Nickel doesn't tone like Silver means that nickel may not tone to a...
Is it a 6 relative to other Jefferson Nickels - but the colors come no where close to a 6 on the absolute scale as was proposed in the opening...
I thought we were rating based on the same criteria as what were called "Monster" for a Morgan in the OP. Not relative to the series, but...
That’s a 5 all day.
It’s a solid mid-to-low 5 for me. Not a monster 6. Beautiful lustrous coin, and a lovely fully transition toned obverse. :cool:
I’m at 6 and 5 on those two Morgans also. The 1881-S is an absolute beast of a coin. The field and cheek chatter on the 1887 bothers me, and...
Not to beat a dead horse here, but I saw your Instagram video on the Peso, and it looks to be a solid 3 and quite lovely from that view. :cool:
@Morgandude11 looking back at the scale and examples of Morgan’s in the OP, this one is a 2 for me. It’s toning, but it doesn’t really add much...
Jason, I wasn’t born yesterday, and I have been doing coin photography well for over 10 years (longer than you). You cannot interpret a coin...
Those pictures are not doing us any favors for assessment of the toning. Toned proofs are extremely difficult to photograph, and that axial...
That nickel is lovely. I’m a 5 on that one. Just enough coverage and “pop” for a breakthrough to 5 from a 4.
The Peso is hard to judge from those pics. They appear to be some sort of axial set up pics for a proof coin...based on what I see the toning is...

I'm also a 3 on this one. IMO, from the photos and the instagram video, the reverse has some "terminal" (near black) toning, and it's a bit...
I also give it a "5" on the proposed scale. It's likely the closest coin I own to anything even remotely "monster" worthy. In hand it glows -...
Instead of going off on a rant, @physics-fan3.14 could have done a VERY SIMPLE Google search for the name "Louis Colavecchio" and found thousands...

Jason, you are better than this kind of childish and baseless rhetoric.
