The Details Discount Thread

Alrighty. Hope I didn't offend you, @ddddd I have plenty of coins that only I like.

1844/81 Large Cent. I bought this raw, and then had it graded by ANACS. (I've been trying different lighting methods, and not really happy with the way the pics turned out.)

How much did I pay?
Grade?
Straight or Details, and why.

@Beefer518 no offense taken here...we all have coins that we like and don't like...if we shared the same likes, it wouldn't be as fun!

 

And I have plenty (too many?) coins I don't like in my collection!

 

$40 ...vf details ... damaged (I'll say Anacs combined all the hits into one damaged catch-all).

...I don't know if the variety made this more valuable or if you cherry picked it, so I'm going with a lowish value...

 

Yep, so do I. Interests change or I end up taking risks on coins that turned out to be not as appealing as I hoped.

 

$35
XF-details, damaged.

 

$45
VF25

 

I vote straight graded, VF25. The uneven color caught my eye but I’ve seen similar on higher grade copper. The hits look like normal circulation wear on soft metal. Purchased raw for $25.

 

I'll reveal in the morning. Just want to see if any other guesses come in.

 

I paid $41, and it came back VF25 straight

Sorry Guys, Gals, I don't have anything ready to go, open to anyone who wants to go.

 

I will go again.

FYI... if you don't possess a DETAILS (or toned) coin, it's fine to look for a completed listing, and copy it to post here. (see below)

P.S. Please be honest, and don't go looking for the listing for answers.
