Can't prove it, but that looks like part of teh coin holder to me.
Maybe I am trying to see too much here, but the fields for both of those cents (as well as the 1957 half and quarter he is selling) just do not...
That camera is easily capable of taking the pics. Use a table, side of a dresser, etc. to hold it still.
And I can say almost anything also.
The only suggestion I have is to look at this posted by desertgem
That is why the rest of the story is there. I am 90%+ sure the die was corroded. The rest of my story (restrike & off metal) is mostly just to...
The only way I can think of to corrode just the liberty on one side of a coin is that the die was corroded. If the die is corroded, then it must...
That was GIMP (Ruben is not totally useless), but I much prefer photoshop. However, photoshop is stuck on my old computer so I will probably have...
From your first pic, does this look any better. BTW, most of what I did was just to set the flip to white. I also lightened a little and cut...
Me three and then some. But if I have a chance of getting a 1924-S out of them, I would take the chance. If nothing else, they have a return policy.
Here are 33 Lincolns from the 1920's for sale by saratogatrading. Everyone has the same pic of a 1934- Lincoln to represent the coin they are...
Harry - They are in Phoenix area (Anthem, AZ) Mr. Coin Lover - All of their store Lincolns have a pic of a 1934 coin.
AJ, click on the picture icon. You can see it that way. FWIW, if that is a 65, my 29-D is a 66.
Heritage has sold 25 MS65's since January of 2007. They got between $4300 and $6300. Not that I am into coins that high, but $8500 sounds at...
I am a lousy typist. It is easier to type front than obverse etc.
That at least explains some of it. That is a nice back. Is that front a weak strike?
Yea, that 26-S would probably make a 45 unless they took off for the nick in the "O". Still a nice coin as are the others.
The 30 does not really surprise me. For a VF coin, that looked about as clean as I have seen. Harry, I have no idea how that coin of yours got a...
Sorry Ruben. You logic escapes me totally.
I would venture a 20/25 because it is so mark free.
