Sometimes, our brain is so focused on the familiar image, and the art of the coin, that we overlook the details. By flipping it upside down (which...
Haha, my opinion is only my opinion, based on the photos provided ;)
Well, then you have fun bro. Knock yourself out.
The orientation of the coin is utterly meaningless, if you know how to grade. You could post them upside down, for all I care. The first coin...
No, ANACS is not worthless. Their grade "opinions" are highly variable, and carry zero weight. Treat them as raw, and grade them for yourself....
Wow. The coin you posted is so different from the OP's coin that a meaningful comparison really can't be made. The coin you linked has...

Nope. That is your average, everyday, circulated, minted in the hundreds of millions, worth-a-nickel nickel.
This is a statement of fact. Either it is genuine, or it is fake. Why would this turn you off?
Haha. It is funny how people get offended at just about anything these days. It is a descriptor; it is an adjective. Some people get so worked up...
For the right price, someone will buy anything. You have to find the right buyer at the right price. As I've mentioned, the coin is worth about...
