I don't think Czaka's laughing about Caleb's high-end set but rather your suggestive condescending tone when you asked, "have you ever seen a MS...
Stunning coin!...But I hate to break it to ya...those pastel colors are too beautiful to be NT...so they must be AT. Being the kind forum member I...
Just received it in the mail! You guys were correct, the seller's pictures definitely hid a lot of bag marks -- none were really "harsh" dings,...
I agree as well, (what looks to be) a nasty ding on Liberty's cheek would knock it down to a 63 or 64 at best. However, there seems to be a...
Thanks all for the responses! I think it will come down to how dinged up the field in front of Liberty's face is. I think the reverse and cheek is...
Hi all, Starting to dabble in the large market of Morgans. Picked up this GSA Morgan off of eBay (raw) thinking it has a good shot at 65 and/or...
Beautiful coin. Those bell lines were HAMMERED in that strike.
Hi all, I have a few coins for sale from my submission earlier, including a couple more. Pictures are provided when possible; where not possible,...
Thanks for all the responses! I believe I was using manual focus, though I might have tried both when I shooting some sample pictures. I also have...
Hi all, I've been meaning to try to sharpen my photography skills, which meant upgrading my old Lumix P&S. I recently bought a Sony NEX-6, and...
Stunning coins (as usual). That '72 is to die for -- I love how the high relief design coupled with the toning causes Lincoln's bust to appear...
Just received the coin in-hand. What do you guys think? What appears to be lack of luster seems to be a fine layer of "dust" on the obverse....
Thanks for the replies so far! To answer your question (dimeguy), the coin has no luster breaks throughout its surfaces. It was pulled directly...
Thanks all! I'm seeing the rubs you all are referring to; especially on the Liberty's ear and hair. Once I receive it in the mail I'll post a...
Hi all, Received this a while back from PCGS via robec. How do you think PCGS graded it?[ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Hi all, I recently took a gamble on a Morgan Dollar off of the good 'ol 'Bay. To me, the cheek appeared to be exceptionally free of marks/dings....
Wow! Interesting to see some proofs without their full strike (no FSB)
WOW robec. I really like that '61; it's not often you see pastel orange and blue together on a date known for the deep purple and red hues....
True, which is why PCGS would undergrade the coin, if anything. Lowball the collector's submission so that they resubmit (and thus PCGS gets x2...
FWIW, the finishes of '65, '66, and '67 SMS coins progressively became more consistently prooflike. In '65, the "prooflike" and polished finishes...
