Sorry to be so late to the party but I apparently missed this tag earlier....check here, John:...
Thats a beautiful and rare coin, Edward. This date is one of the final 10 that I am missing for a complete date/mm set and yours is very nice. I...
Cherrypicking is one of my favorite aspects of collecting. Here are a couple of my better 'picks'.[ATTACH] This coin has a rather cool story. It...
Id personally grade the obverse xf45 and the reverse au50-53. Im a fan of the overall look, especially the reverse toning!
I'll say F-108. Might be the strongest ddr in the entire series...
Looks to me like there is much more wear on the '56. Im at AU53 and XF40...
Yes it is a testament to the variety work done by a few specialists that makes identifying coins by obverse (or reverse) alone possible. I have...
No, the area under the bow does have a little toning but not a removed MM. A 63-S in this grade would almost always exhibit much more weakness at...

See the following thread: https://www.cointalk.com/threads/gtg-1867-dime.308147/ I just decided to address this dime in the past week. It will...
I suppose I should add that the photos were taken by a very generous (and apparently humble) member here who has assisted me in my current PCGS...

Mintage for business strikes is 6,000 pieces. Lowest mintage in the entire series!
There are a few things to consider regarding the 1867 date as a whole and the initial coin in question. Although I am not an expert, I have...
John, Your purchase is Greer Reverse A which does always come with significant right sided weakness and is an R4 variety per Fortin. There are,...
This is an interesting topic and question. In my opinion, ldhair has said it best thus far: So, even though some people feel no value is added...
@Burton Strauss III Thanks for weighing in with an expert opinion. The most recent auction example of a circulated example just closed and was the...
Nothing against anyone here, but all the fake slabs from China that keep showing up make me a little leery. Since the coin has really only been in...
A couple years ago, I came across the following coin at a small local show. The dealer remarked that it was fresh back from NGC earlier that...
