I really like the Cap & Rays 8R. Nice color. Nice color crescent on the Morgan, too. Those aren't my cuppa tea, but some folks really love...
They are indeed difficult to grade. I also find Franklin halves and the incuse Indian $2.50 and $5.00 coins tough to grade, personally.
Sounds like the dreaded "trapped gas" problem. Sometimes there will also be an oily or wet looking spot inside (a literal gas bubble) that you...
Agreed.
I can do up a Walker half concept for ya. What would you like to see? Here's one. I used my '38-D for a model. Whoops, she seems to have lost...
Oho, so sold some other poisoned apples, did he?
Thanks for sharing that. Despite my moderator status making me the point of contact for several locked out folks, I was unaware of that...

I fixed the typo in the thread title, as it is obviously not a 1964 Indian cent. ;)
That's 100% graffiti.
One, you need to post photos. Two, you need to post them in a new topic, rather than as an add-on to this sixteen-year-old "zombie" thread, which...
You said it yourself. That, I think, is a very plausible scenario. Nice though the coin may look, I do not like your odds of doing any better...

Separate names with a comma.
