63-64. Black patches totally kill it for me.
All coins in MS65 will either appreciate or depreciate over time. Or both. Or neither. Pay more attention to buying a coin with really nice...
I seldom look at the mint mark when attributing 1878-S. The key to most of them is the hand-engraved feathers under the eagle's right (viewer's...
I guess the only reason I can think of is that Congress doesn't pass Canadian laws, and the Canadian Parliament doesn't pass US laws. Other than...
Keep looking and maybe you'll find his pocketwatch. The three later coins are pretty nice for found large cents. The 1833 looks F-VF, perhaps...

For sharper images, try acquiring the image in grayscale rather than color. This will eliminate color noise and white balance issues and you...
I think it's an O.
It really depends on the type of coins you're referring to. Heritage prices realized are good for coins valued above $200. Great Collections...

83-CC and 84-CC are pretty easy to find with at least one side PL, so you might consider that as well. There are plenty of these coins out there,...
Yeah, something doesn't smell right here. There's an incuse star on the reverse above the F in OF. The smashings don't quite have the...
I agree that it's not die erosion. Other peripheral lettering is sharp and there are no heavy patches of flow lines. A pitted die is possible,...
