I'm not at all offended. I waste a bunch of breath around here trying to get people to speak with precision, and deserve to be called out when I...
I concede the accuracy of your edit. It was my mistake - resulting in the potential for misinterpretation - to have used the term "circulation"...
/raises hand. :)
My goodness. I call it 63, even though literally everything except the prime focal grading area (the cheek) cries out for more. 64 maybe, and...
Well, I already know Kurt and green18 well enough to know they're survivors. :) This place can get rough-and-tumble sometimes, and your reaction...
Gotta recalibrate your grading a bit - the wheat stalks are almost completely worn away and it looks to be about VG-10. As regards doubling, the...
Y'know, I believe you're going to do all right around here. :)
Much betterer. :) I still believe the 1882-P to be overgraded, but IMO the 1921 Peace deserved better than it got. The 1884-CC might possibly do...
If the counterfeiters have reached the point where they can duplicate the tiny clashing, polishing and overstriking features which characterize...
Can't really answer, because I can't tell what goes with what. The 1882-P, which doesn't seem to have a reverse image, looks closer to 62 than 64.
I would answer in the opposite order, Lincoln ahead of TR, and it matters not that Mr. Lincoln has already graced the longest-running current US...
I'm not sure I understand why there's a worry about posting images here (or almost any forum) when the site itself will host them for you. Whether...
There isn't all that great a difference in the hardness of those two materials, depending on how they're alloyed. With that fairly small...
Oooh. Tricky. :) O-105, I think. Not the best of strikes or freshest of dies, so the potential for deception abounds. :) I'm calling it AU55 in...
A stiff collar strike, by definition, isn't capable of manifesting all the way around the circumference of the coin because one of the...
The funny thing about Proofs vs. highly lustrous coins is that the practice which smooths out the blinding reflectivity of luster - diffusion -...
Type One reverse, noted by the width of the A in STATES, one of the two reverse types used with 1875 Proofs. In the final seller pic, one can see...
I'm no expert on Early Copper, but I would not trust a reference which calls a relationship between obverse and reverse elements of a coin an...
Put most simply, I have the opposite opinion of yours about DMPL coins. A DMPL Morgan is about as beautiful a coin as has ever been minted in...
Based only on these images, I could optimistically consider the '14-D at G4 and the '15-S at VG8. Base your price opinion on the 1914 only; at...
