    torontokuba Thread Crapper & Hijacker, TP please.

    If it's not too much of a bother, how much were the Rosies?

    I'm looking at it and I keep thinking they missed the word "Details" on the label. Wouldn't buy that one.

    That looks like a newer NGC slab. I thought they are more scratch resistant, now. What happened? Are these things shipped with scratches? Why polish the slab?

    Coincidentally that just happens to be the best year for colorfully toned Lincoln proofs.

    Bob has a way of imaging the coin as it actually looks as opposed to flooding it with light and making it look almost artificial. I agree with you that Bobs image looks better than that of PCGS. Many will argue that PCGS has to shoot so many pictures that it is a rushed deal. If this is the case than I think they should a) hire more photographer or b) stop charging so much for their images.

    His always shows more luster. I think there were a couple points where the TV had more detail, but the TV's always look 'flat'
