One of the few Jeff's I have purchased recently. The first set of images is the PCGS TrueView; the second is the set of images provided by the auction company. I can attest that the first set matches much more closely to what the coin looks like in hand.

A big one for me took 8-10 months of saving up. My 1893-S Morgan dollar. Hopefully one day I can upgrade to a PCGS VG-10 or F-12.

Picked this one up for my PL Washington quarter series.
Purchased this raw last Thursday through a local coin auction. It appeared as if most all coins that were of consequence in auction had problems, and I felt as if I was digging through a dealers junk drawer...I did manage to buy this '17-D Buff for my circ. set for $16.
Got stung with this one last Monday but it will get me through zombie apocalypse.
Picked up all this at the local coin shop today. The 25 Rubles note has much more vibrant color than the photo shows. And you all know my love of coin albums

Funny story about your Jeep. My ford went in for service last year, and the rental company gave me something, I forgot what. The next day they call me just before work to say can I please bring it back because they messed up and need to give me a different vehicle. I said I can't, I have to go to work right now, so they drove to my house in a fancy jeep just like yours, upgraded me to that one for the week, and comped the entire rental fees because of their mess-up! That was a nice car to drive I have to admit.

The design, feel, and ride have come a long way in the past 15 years. I've owned a couple of jeeps and I'd say there is no comparison. I'll have to see how it performs in snow, but man, it can really get up and go when you need it...
Really nice '89 IHC, Ashland. A tough issue to find nice.
Thank you! It was the only one in the lot that the color designation was still accurate, a lot of them were darker in the holders... I really liked this one!

Just received this TrueView from my latest submission... Unfortunately, came back as "Cleaned" UNC.
Looks nice. Sorry about the grade. Can you see where it was cleaned?
Personally, I cannot. I am by no means an expert when it comes to detecting pre-1900 cleaned coins, but my hunch is the "residue" (if it even is residue) near the eagle's head on the reverse. The coin looks immaculate in hand - with no trace of cleaning, which is why this particular grade is very frustrating to me.
Crack out candidate? Maybe to the other of the big two?
