I don't get the question?
Well, what happened? What did they grade? Here's one I have on approval right now. Wanna guess the grade and explain the toning around Liberty's...
I obtained an 1840 Charlotte half-eagle a while back and it got me doing some research on 1840 coins. Many of the coins minted that year are...
For your perusal and critique. This is one I own. It's graded XF45 PCGS. Nothing terribly special about it, no beautiful toning or anything,...
IMHO it was ugly to start with and still is - although I prefer the look of the dipped version - that said, the before and after dipping pictures...
Excellent photo detective work! Definitely tree stands! And so cool to see them just planted and again when they are grown! Note that if you...
It's X Colonel Green and Eric P Newman. So if it's ever been dipped it would certainly be prior to 1936. Yep I would fight you for it :-). One of...
Ok, I asked for comments for my own edification and I got them! Excellent. Pretty much what I was thinking. So....... how about this one?...

I have learned a lot from posting coins for you all to comment on - even wound up with a couple of fresh CAC stickers (which I like) as a result....
I've done exactly what the OP did - So I bought it and re-sold it. I think in my case I bought two of the same coin in the same auction - I just...
Excellent! Is this usually more obvious on silver than gold - or equally applicable? I will add that this specific issue, the 1840-O no drapery...
Both being over-graded makes sense I'm sure - both PCGS - BTW, The second, dark VF35 has a CAC sticker! Here's a little more info that might be...
Sorry to dissapoint :) Here's the reverse of the vf35. Yes, as someone said, New Orleans strike! [ATTACH]
Well, I don't know, but here's a VF35 of the same issue (1840-O no drapery). Looks like a lot more wear to me.[ATTACH]
On this 1840-O Quarter (PCGS XF40): [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Yes. 45
Two out of three this week (which is good because I was 0 for 3 last month). The dollar is in an old green holder. The Braided Cent is currently...
If you do a little research on the CAC population you'll see that the number of coins that have CAC stickers is far, far below 60% of those that...
