  1. Being the world class grader that you are how could we doubt you.
  2. Looking forward to your grading results.
  3. Just parking lot road rash damage.
  4. Small date zinc, very common coin just a spender. You can look till the day they put you in a box you still will not find one. Your time would be better spent and more lucrative if instead of spending that time searching for a 82-D sm date copper you got a job at the local circle K.
  5. From your photo your coin appears (to me) to be a large 6 not a small 6, what does the NGC label say?
  6. I see nothing in your photo that matches up to the photos and descriptions for 1974-D FS101 on Varity Vista. In fact there is no mention of a doubled earlobe or photos of such shown at VV. Can you provide any other site that references this feature? Or perhaps, just as a guess, the person who helped you on the site you failed to name is mistaken. When you ask a question on an open forum you should expect to get some answers that may not align with your ideas or goals. There are a few roll searchers that pop into this forum from time to time, but they are not the core of members here. So it is not all that surprising that many here see roll/bag searching as less than a top priority. While I'm glad that you had fun and I hope for you that you get some nice grades, the coin you posted doesn't look (imo) to be a worthy candidate for grading/slabbing from your supplied photos. Also in case you were not aware, NGC will not attribute your (assuming that you even really do have examples of this DDO) 1974-D FS101, it currently is not on the NGC list of varieties that they will attribute, which means that NGC feels it is too minor. It is likely that ANACS might, and perhaps PCGS if this is listed in the current cherry pickers guide.
  7. Toner lovers are a crazy bunch of collectors, and many are not afraid to spend some major cash if they like the tone. I would not be surprised at all if this was a Morgan dollar, but from what little I follow of the world coin market that does seem like a remarkable price.
  8. Welcome to the forum. There are only two ways for the reverse design elements to show on the obv, from a clash (see the overlay that eagle posted above) or from indirect die transfer. I do not see any indications of either of these in the photos that you have provided, it looks like a normal coin with some circulation damage and stains.
  9. Hello team, we should add a one per date set to the Jefferson Nickel sets, we have one for the Buffalo nickel series so one should be added to the Jefferson sets too. 242334-038 3766146-001 2502135-006 183725-005 3912973-003
  10. "what would a 1964 MS66 Kennedy half dollar go for with similar color" still way out of my collecting knowledge, but I'm going to say around $450.
  11. Beautiful coin Joe.
  12. No clue Mike as I don't collect in this area, but I'm sure that the color added quite a bit even tho its on the rev.
  13. Yes most everyone here can see the difference between your photo and the one you copied. I will only do this once, here is your photo (cropped to remove most of the noise and background) and the photo supplied by @Fenntucky Mike. I have circled two areas that I want you to focus on; a third one on the image Mike supplied which is cropped out in your photo. And in case it is not clear to you, your photo is the top photo, I left one of your yellow arrows in your photo to make it easier to identify. Notice how in those circles how in the image supplied by Mike how you see two separate serifs at the bottom of the I and at the top of the lower bar of the L. These are split apart and there is a notch or space between each of the serifs, same for the corner of the L which is cropped out on your photo. Now look at your photo, notice how in the circles how the serifs are not split but just a continuation of the letters on both the I and L. There are additional differences, however, if you are not able to see the differences shown in the areas that I circled in these two photos then you might as well stop looking as you will never be able to identify true hub doubling from the worthless machine doubling.
  14. Not sure I would want anything this guy has rubbing off on me, just saying.
  15. Will the TPG's accept food stamps as payment, not sure this guy has any real money after he blew it all on his magical ebay lot.
  16. "Mystery roll from eBay for $20 was it worth it??" Answer, nope.
  17. You have a damaged and stained quarter. But the good news, it is still worth a quarter.
  18. By "double strike" I am assuming that you actually mean "strike doubling" AKA mechanical doubling. If so then yes your coin shows what is considered strike doubling not true hub doubling.
  19. If so then maybe you have had too much of what the op is smoking.
  20. Short answer is No. Only worth 3 cents for the copper metal value unless in suburb gem condition certified by a legit grading firm like NGC as MS67 or higher.
