I have fair luck using an Ott light. Helps see the luster. But don't think I've tried it on nice toners. And I have some dandys! Just not planning...
I'm going with -65. Is the upper right reverse a darker toning? Hard to tell on my phone.
Wow......so very cool Shaner! And very nice that your wife and you received this from her uncle. I hope you're enjoying looking through it all as...
I'm impressed. Still a nice looking coin IMHO. All depends on what you paid and if YOU like it!

My 2 cents: If it's a club sponsored show, you have every right to host a table whether its free or you pay the club. I'm in a club in northern...
Huh! I'm a little surprised at the -58. I thought there was to much wear for that grade.
Speaking from the opposite view, I had 100% positive feedback as a seller. I sold a token for $5, a s the buyer said he did not receive it. He...
