I am going to go with no star because of the near-terminal toning on the outer edges of the obverse.
Thanks for the feedback everyone! My instinct was that this coin would land in a 40 holder. I actually like the laminations, but I tend to enjoy...
I have, but these are mostly late 18th-century coppers, and they are nowhere near as flashy as a proof mercury dime. I tried imaging my proof...
This little addition just arrived in the mail today. I had a few minutes to snap some pictures, and I wanted to see what you all thought. It is a...
I really like #2. It seems to be the best of both worlds to me. I love the coin by the way @physics-fan3.14! I could use the date/MM combo for my...
@thomas mozzillo you can find more information on the star designation here: https://www.ngccoin.com/coin-grading/grading-scale/ As for the 1964...
Round two: I did my best to brighten these images. I think they more accurately portray the color of the coins. Please let me know what you think....
Well....I have no idea. I cropped the image and then saved the changes to a file. The file always contains the original (a .CR2 file) and an...
@rmpsrpms thank you for the tip. I will have to play around with this when I get back home. Yes, I used the black velvet transfer disc for raw coins.
I want to thank everyone for the flurry of support! This thread reconfirms everything I know about the comradery of this hobby. I have a lot to...
I failed to mention this earlier, but I recently won an NGC award for "Most Creative Custom Set". This was a complete surprise, and I am deeply...
I don't think it would star either.
A bit contemporary in comparison to the rest of my collection, but it was cheap, and I could not resist. 1937 Great Britain proof Shilling with...
Very cool! Thank you for taking the time to attribute these. I’ve read a few articles on the St. Patrick pieces, and apparently they are shrouded...
@l.cutler that would be extremely helpful. I found a copy of Martin’s book but I’ll hold off for a cheaper option if/when it comes available.
@l.cutler thank you for the information! I wonder if this is something I could check out from the ANA. Do you have any pictures of your farthing?
I am a bit behind, but I will refrain from posting multiple coins in a single post. 1797 Soho Bronzed Proof Pattern Penny P-1100 [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
As some of you may know, I primarily collect regal English and Irish copper coins with an emphasis on those struck by the Soho Mint. Although my...
I forgot to chime in on the 1881 S with the green obverse. I did not find that coin appealing. Watching the video did little to change my mind. I...
I am surprised the 1896 got a star. IMO opinion I do not think it deserves it.
