Re: Random picture thread for Friday
Got a “new” toy. Fujifilm 645Zi camera! It’s a medium format film camera from the late 1990’s. I‘m going to send a few rolls out this weekend for processing, hopefully there’s a couple decent shots.
Re: Would you tell a seller that they had a million dollar coin?
Yes, if they were asking $2M. Gotta chisel 'em down!
Re: Something to argue about other than CAC
Possible reasons:
The price action has been terrible for thirty years and counting.
Not particularly challenging given the number of UNC specimens extant unless you do high grade and/or wild toners.
A lot of the designs are rather boring.
Not necessarily educational unless you do some background research.

I like it quite a bit. Nice thick original skin. It's a lock for the bean unless the number's too high.It is graded 64. I think it is a lock green bean, shot gold bean kind of coin at that grade, but curious to see what JA says. I have been wrong plenty of times before!

I don't think it's pretty, & it looks gently lightened near the centers, especially the reverse.To each their own.
I think it’s a nice looking coin. However, I believe that the flat areas on Liberty’s thighs and breasts are virtually certain to prelude a gold sticker from CAC. And if the coin fails to get a green one, it will likely be for the same reason.
