Re: Positive Mis attribution stories wanted

Not quite, but I think my story somewhat related. A long time ago, I bought an MS 1887-O NGC attributed lamination error. The lamination is very minor near the rim on the reverse. So minor that it took me a while to find it. They missed the fact that it's VAM-3 :lol:

Re: long lost 79-S V41...

I have an example on my desk of the original piece posted. It matches the full coin shot of a piece attributed by Brian on the VAM 69 page. So VAM-69 will be eliminated, right? And Juan coin that has reverse of VAM-41 paired with obverse VAM-48A will be new listing. Btw, I also have a raw cleaned A...

Re: Ebuyer Beware!

I have always reported to Ebay those counterfeit coin I found before posting it here. When two or three others reported the same coin, the report becomes more credible, and ebay will take it down. Yes, it will not put even a minuscule dent to the counterfeit market. But my contribution or good deed ...

Re: 1896-P (Mark in 8, Chip in 9, OBV Denticle Mark, Doubled Motto/Partial Legend)

It was pretty daunting task... I cleaned my desk, flipped my 27in monitor upside down, took photo of the monitor while zooming in at the date, flipped the monitor back, and checked it.... then I realized I could've just turned my phone 180deg

Re: 79-S B2a Study

messydesk 56, 149, and 66 may not be in exactly the right order, and it may never be possible to determine the right order for those 3. I think VAM-149 struck before VAM-66, based on the relationship of the reverse of 79 counterpart. While VAM-56 is the "problem child". Can't find the right place f...

Re: Checkmark mystery

1. Totally agreed with everyone else... your pics are superb. 2. Totally agreed with you, 80p V44 is mighty tough. I felt blessed to have one (bought from another member here). 3. I know the person listed as the discoverer of V44. I've asked him (in person) a few years ago, and he said he knows noth...
