I haven't seen the copper versions of these pennies, so I'm wondering if there is at all a difference in coloring or appearance between the proof...
Having it in hand, I think you are right. Particularly there is one above the Eagle's left wing that is more obvious in hand than in the picture....
No idea. I'm far too much of a rookie to grade it. The shop didn't have any grade written on it. It certainly wasn't priced as an MS68. (On...
Thanks. It's one of my favorite coins, so I had to get a good example for my set. Same with the merc dime. 2 of the best looking coins, no doubt.

That's no good. Everything I had read said they were really good quality, so hopefully I'll have better luck. Apparently I've had much better...

I just received my first crap green intercept shield album from the internet on Wednesday. What don't you like about them?
Thanks for the help guys. I'm just going to keep them. Wasn't planning on using eBay anymore after buying these proof sets anyway, so hopefully...
Bought a set of 2007 Presidential proofs on eBay. Described as GEM PROOF CONDITION on the auction (linked below). Opened it up and found some...
