Hi Jello, I'll venture an MS 64 grade, too many small marks too make it as an MS 65 IMO. Nice coin
IMO, either ask for him to send it to you so you can look at it in hand, OR ask him to attempt larger pictures.
Thanks for sharing Frank! It's interesting to see another possible design. Do you know of where I could find the other 389 designs that were...
I strongly disagree with assesing coins this way from TPG's. How would you ever cherry a nice coin for the grade? When I look at coins I grade...
True it is. IMO I find it quite attractive. Sorry I can't answer your small holder question. I find it bizarre the seller doesn't have a price...
Nice coin Hagop! I will venture a G-7 :goofer: grade. It's a high "good" grade but I just don't think it cracks VG.
I think I agree with VF 35 for the "wear" side of things, although all the marks on the reverse would drop it a little IMO, Nice coin Mark!
I can't imagine he would be happy with that offer. Especially if the prices you quoted are accurate. You think the coin is only an MS 65 and those...
Dellers Darkener is a good product, but you should be aware that it does not work wonders. As Boss said, check out his thread on an 09 S VDB.

Well.. that just wouldn't make much... cents...:rolleyes:
My opinion is that the coin is authentic and that the picture was taken at an angle or the picture was cropped slightly off center. I've done that...
Was there an update from teh seller/ CU forum member Jack? Did he give any reasoning behind this? Or was he really out to catch a fish?
Nice Fish! It's a nice one for your first find as well. But come on.. Be honest now. We know your son helps you roll search too... Who found this...
I can second that! Not that I collect Ikes, but I sure can agree when you say they have been drowing in popularity fast! I remember hearing on...
Thanks for the educational thread Jim! I am looking forward to the next one! Although, I would have said it was an altered coin. I don't see the...
Glad to hear your 1909 S IHC is doing good Boss, have you cracked out your 09 S VDB? I'll just throw in my two bits worth, I have "cleaned" 3...
Awesome! Could always use one more! Make sure to have him join the forum when you feel it is appropriate for him to do so, and he could learn on...
