It would be helpful if he got his info straight, but he at least admits he doesn't know for sure. PCGS has always slabbed modern coins - since...
That's one of the easy places to see them, but they are all over the coin if you look close. Turn a coin like that in the light and they will jump...
I use two cameras, not exclusively for coins though, a rather nice Nikon and Sony. But since I don't collect any more I usually only take pics of...
I sure would.

Is it possible my efforts have not been wasted ? :D Nice coin. and certainly a better struck example than most. Quite a find :thumb: Now...

Yes the raised areas could be clash marks. But compare the size of the right arm on this coin to known genuine examples. Compare the location and...
You need the Krause catalogs. There were up to 61 different mints.
