I learned a lot from this coin. Number one being that proofs are graded MUCH differently than MS coins. If this were a business issue, it would...
[ATTACH] Well, the grade hasn't been uploaded yet but here are the truviews I ordered. It regraded PR64+CAM. The new cert number should be in...
I wonder if the purpose of 2 per day and only 500 piece per day is solely to make the big dealers say, "It isn't worth it."
About 20 years ago I worked at a pharmacy as a cashier. Over time, I got a handful of indian head cents, and a few silver quarters and a dimes....
Love it! A rescued, long lost proof has been found!
Btw, this coin currently resides in a yellow ANACS AU53 holder. Problem free. I think the grader jotted down "63" and it got misinterpreted.
So Tom, if Heritage has 2 of these in their archives from 2008 listed as JR-11. The Dick Graham book has the GR-15 corresponding with the JR-8....
Two things make it the "b", but I believe I have learned 3 things. 1. A crack runs through the right side stars and comes out the top of star 7....
Never saw one of these before, and there was only about a $5 "premium" over a raw one, so I bought this for $65 today in Baltimore. Anyone else...

Any gold stickers?
I lose money on buys like this almost as often as I make it. That's what happens when you buy aggressively.
I identified it by the reverse die crack, not the overdate. ;)
Well it was in a plain 1827 XF45, not an overdate, so it was "worth" about $225 unidentified. But in an AU50 holder properly identified it became...
There's a member on here who has a nearly complete set of Morgan dollars; nearly all of which he cracked out of PCGS holders so he could keep them...
I got extremely lucky. Used very diluted dip. Probably 15 parts water to 1 part dip. I lightly applied it to the worst areas of artificial toning...
Several weeks ago I bought this NGC 1827 XF45 on eBay for $245. The reason I paid that much was because I recognized it as the overdate 1827/6....
Well, I found out it's a JR-11, but I cannot find the corresponding GR number? It doesn't seem to be in the book... weird.
Anyone wanna take a guess at the grade while I wait for someone to help with the variety?
