For what it's worth... I just got the CC back from PCGS and it graded VF30. I learned a lot about subjectivity/objectivity in this little exercise...
Thanks JC, I'm working on better pics and I'm going to experiment after work. I've got a good close up camera but need a better lighting scenero...
The newbie is back. After going through about 1/4 of my half-gallon penny jar I wasn't sure if my eyes were playing tricks on me or I found a nice...
Strangely enough, my proofs arrived the same day as the shipping notification did. Maybe they're trying to prove that snail mail is just as fast...

Perhaps...but it would have been a very small punch and a half-hearted attempt since the damaged spot is very very small. The obverse shows no...
Thanks for the welcome and for taking a look and also for the feedback. My mind tried to make an S out of it too but the raised left edge appears...
Thanks Danr. I'll buy that, but it's the mm damage that has me stymied. Ever seen anything similar?
I am the newbie of all newbies but this looked like a good place for some friendly help. Be kind because I'm admitting that I don't know much...
