I'd give ya 30 for it. Probably makes me unknowledgable though. ;)
My father has multiple sets of most years all the way back to mid sixties. I have runs from 1955-1964, 1982-1992 and 2010 and 11 and a few odds...
What I see in the pic above is tarnish. Nasty black oxidation. Toning is a colorful oxidation that is not so flat and ugly. Tarnish deserves...
It is either die or planchet. It is NOT from being wiped by anything. The lines are straight and perpendicular. They also flow in that straight...
Buried???? Obviously there are folks who will pay that much for it, so how can you say the winner is buried? I've lost some bids that made me...
I do a lot of cashiering and as manager also count out the drawers and deposits where I work. I also do bank runs so I get to search a lot of...
I didnt bother to ask as I knew it was going to be in the second mortgage range. VAcookey thought he gave a price, but it was high enough she...
I am on the AU58 bus here. Not a lot of wear at all, and scratches see to be minimal. Very nice coin.
Slight wear on the hair above ears, and on the top of the wings, so yep, AU58.
Yes, an 1856 Flying Eagle, PCGS rated a PF58. It was at the show we went to today. The dealer was kind enough to allow me to hold it and take...

I havent seen any grading that is hugely out of line from any of the companies. You can argue up or down a grade, but usually thats about it. And...

And while she was getting that and an 1864 2 cent in better shape, I was snagging these... [IMG] [IMG] And this in the mail from ebay...
OK, my last entry on this thread. First, I am well aware pics are not the end all. I do believe I said pics were not the best thing for this....
Left to right, top to bottom, 1,3,9,11,13. Those are the dipped ones. And they were dipped for about 3 seconds. And I implied nothing. I stated...
At work so this will be quick. I did NOT say I dipped these coins for 15 seconds. I said that if you dip a coin any longer than 15 seconds would...
OK, here you go. 5 of these dimes I dipped. I realize the picture isn't the best for this, but if dipping them damaged them so severely, they...
It sure as hell looks like a double die at the least. I agree, find an error guru and get an opinion.
Yep. It removes black tarnish well and rinses off easily. But as I said, and it says on the package, do not dip longer than 15 seconds. Its strong...
