<p>[QUOTE=&quot;LMHESS, post: 2183417, member: 75003&quot;]Hello,&nbsp; I am newer to coins and have never posted a thread, but have been unable to find an answer to my question about these $5 Gold Indian Half coins.&nbsp; I attached 2 pictures of the areas that I have noticed differences in these coins.&nbsp; All coins that I purchase are either PCGS or NGC because of my inexperience.&nbsp; I have been trying to find a nice MS64 that I am comfortable with, but after reading the books by Charles Larson and Bill Fivaz I hesitate when I see what looks questionable to me.&nbsp; Ebay is a great place to see many pictures in one place.&nbsp; I have noticed that many of the lower grade coins all seem to have the full rounded convex olive branch, like what you would see on a tree with the right side showing where the inside of the branch is hollow (2nd picture).&nbsp; My first picture shows what I seem to be finding on most of the higher graded coins, a convex hollow branch with what looks like the top is cut off. The branch looks like a canoe.&nbsp; The third picture is of a coin that is also in a NGC holder, but has the &quot;sunken cake&quot; look.&nbsp; I would like to get the thoughts of collectors with more experience than myself.&nbsp; Thanks[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
