  1. Absolutely and without question WELL DESERVED and timely recognition!
  2. If you want one, go to their website at www.scoins.com and let Andy know that James sent you. No links here so as not to over-commecialize - just type in the URL bolded above.
  3. Only a couple years older than myself!! My condolences to his family. I spoke with Miles probably three or four times over many years.
  4. I can't believe it! I met him at several St. Louis shows through the years. My condolences.
  5. For what it's worth, PCGS straight-graded the coin Good-4.
  6. The slab is scratched up in my defense and the iPhone camera is only so good for photographing coins. Enjoy!
  7. Interesting! Unfortunately, my copy of the original 2nd edition is still in shrink wrap so I cannot look myself. But here's a (hopefully legible) pic of what the 3rd edition has to offer:
  8. When trying to research pre-Federal coins, I often find myself getting lost in the website linked below. Don't say I didn't warn you! https://coins.nd.edu/ColCoin/ColCoinIntros/WashDRAPED.intro.html PS: link is for a specific coin but you can jump off from there
  9. Those are really impressive results! I'm glad someone defined "EVOO" for me though....
  10. Straight Outta Album. I liked this one for my "1818//7 large 8" representative because it is neither prime nor Overton's die-state "a". The obverse has a light die crack from the curl to the eleventh star, which is typical of O-101a, but no die cracks on the reverse. In a way, maybe it represents both coins in one neat package? Medicore iPhone pics, but you get the idea. Enjoy!
  11. I agree with the grade. I was going to guess MS-65 but have no problem at all with NGC's commercial grade for this well-known strike-rarity.
  12. I just wanted to say that this thread brought back a lot of memories! I was dealing in coins full-time in 2014 and was at the ANA when all these shenanigans were going on.
  13. Straight Outta Album - enjoy! iPhone pics are a little fuzzy...
  14. My website has been messed up for quite some time as I stepped away from full-time coins for a while. But I should get it back up and running... maybe by next year?
  15. The OP photos are deceptive and make it difficult to guess. Based on past experience, it's something like MS-63 and possibly PL.
  16. I actually use the word "emission" a fair amount during my cataloging duties. If only I had permission to collect a commission each time I used it....
