    If you think about it, the most important thing in any hobby is state of preservation. A stamp, baseball card, comic book, dollar bill, pocket watch, antique chair--it's all about the condition of it. Who cares if the pocket watch was used or chair was sat on? Use your eyes, not your mind's eye, when you're evaluating coins.

    Yeah those were the days.....the golden age of TV.....and politicians, News reporters,and teachers....all swearing on a stack of Rev. Flechers bible's....If by chance the Russians did launch a nuke at 1 pm on a Monday ( Mondays 1 pm test day and time for civil defence) ....If you crawled under your school desk and didn't look at the FLASH!!!!! Somehow you wouldn't be discindergrated.
    So you had that going for you....!:rolleyes:

    By the way,
    Hope you stick around.
    I just like looking at all the coins, still learning.
    There are a lot of good folk here, that aren't afraid to pass the hobby along.

    You know... just dawned on me....I need and Google Russian 1960 history and see if their school kids had school desk that protected them from a nucular blast.:stop:
    If not well I'm feeling a lot better now.

    Ok, another quick one. This is not a coin I own, it’s on a site I happened across. They have this Morgan slabbed as MS66 but I’m thinking not that high at all... Would I be correct or am I off?

    I know I only posted the obverse, but in general...?

    Thanks man, I’ll be sticking around. I’ve been collecting on and off since I was a kid in the 80s. I now inherited my grandfathers’ collections, so I’m on a quest to catalog and grade everything. Gotta start somewhere and gotta learn sometime. I’m sure I’ll be posting more questions. Cheers!

    That's some good stuff, and something that, I'd say crosses over to numismatics, as far as preservation is considered.
