Here's a reference from VAMworld: VAMworld - Reverse of 78-79 I also discussed those two reverses in this thread: EXHIBIT: The Morgan Dollar (It's...
They usually send you the tracking number in the Shipment Notification email.
Registered mail can take awhile, about week seems to be about the norm. I had one registered mail package take 2 weeks from Florida, so you never...
We would need pics of the reverse too. Assuming it's not the infrequently reeded or pitted reverse varieties, It helps to break it down first, do...
The pics are pretty good. The details are great, but it looks like the color is off a little (too yellow), maybe check the white balance.
Ok, so here's the entire paragraph: Imo it's pretty clear the author believes cameo contrast is a requirement. And if that isn't enough, scroll...

Imo those scratches aren't on the coin, but they're on the slab. It looks like the slab is pretty beat up because there are a number of scratches...
Nice coins! What do you think happened to the guy trying to pass off that coin :hammer:. Also, what's more common, originals or contemporary...
Thanks everyone, and nice token Ardatirion. You mean I can actually touch it? :D It's very cool!
Hello darkside collectors :D, I don't post in this section too often, but I do lurk. So my first real ancient just came in today, it's a Athens...
I always thought the same thing too, but I've seen these very minor breaks on the rim be called cuds before, especially with Morgans. VAMworld -...
Yep those are small cuds.
