Interesting!

Flatwoods

That is top secret. Best to delete this.

I have used that page but it also has /trueview/(insert cert number)
in the URL.
When this one came up I went looking for it and found it.
So at least this one is/was a current trueview. Don't know about others or how the page is working.

Interesting find.

LanceNewmanOCC

this is something like i never recall seeing before.

i haven't figured out how to get the image links for coins via that link BUT if you copy image, you can paste it here.

FlyingAl

I don’t know but I’m really enjoying it. Thanks, this is great.

Edit: I came across a 1926 $2 1/2 Sesquicentennial and I just said "Wow, now THAT'S a coin!"

LanceNewmanOCC

WHAT IN TARNATION!

FlyingAl

@LanceNewmanOCC I wonder if this is a feed of PCGS's most recent TrueViews. There's a mix of details and the obverse counterfeit coins so it could be that they just feed through the site for some reason. Just a crazy idea

ok this one gives me chills

amwldcoin

I have a customer that is hounding me for coins I have pictured in my sets that aren't published at the moment. I'm wondering if this is where he's finding them.

robec

One of them that came up was one of mine TrueViewed over 5 years ago.

Looks fine to me, (I'm not an expert on EAC, but I have handled over 1,000 of them ) although in that condition it's only worth $25 tops, definitely not enough to justify getting it graded...

Mr_Spud

Cool 😎

LanceNewmanOCC

@messydesk

would you say this is vam 84?

lilolme

So looking and wondering what they are I noticed lancenewmanocc posted the same coin twice. But notice how the picture 'color' is a little different.

Not a single Lowball to be seen. . .

i saw some semi-lowballs. stuff that made no sense to be submitted but for sure no pr or fr.

probably the only reason i didn't post one was because by the time i found one, there would be hundreds of images to this thread and they are all too large in MB size for their dimensions size, so it would be kinda rough on those with lesser devices and killer on bandwidth without as much of the payoff given the cost of the MB size.

perhaps you could channel the aether and pull some out of there?

ack. you're right. goes to show i like high-grade 80-o dollars. lol

fwiw, i am pretty sure i seen the same ones multiple times. since i didnt' see any image names, i can't say for sure if they were dupes or images more than once. - BUT i obviously to see what you see and surely the only thing that can account for that is 2 images of the same coin? i didn't edit anything, just posted from there to here.

i was thinking of doing a page search to see what that showed for image names but never got around to it and now mreureka posted that j38a pattern counterfeit and it has my attention now.

unless someone beats me to it, i'll probably do the page search thing since it has yielded fruit from many a site previously.

I down loaded a few of these and kind of interesting as the come through as
images.pcgs.com.jpeg
or
images.pcgs.com.png

they do not have an individual name

Edit: I also saw a couple in the holder pic's which would indicate the European division photo.

Mr_Spud

I think it might be from when a customer didn’t order a trueview, but PCGS took pictures anyway and used them in CoinFacts or something like that. I say that because if I go in my PCGS account and look up old submissions from when I submitted raw coins I have a few of those where I didn’t order trueviews. Like this one

Here’s what it looks like on my submission order page, there 4 different pictures, 2 are side by side and the other 2 are the obverse and reverse

This one's a monster!

I miss the site that showed recent True Views from submissions. That was good entertainment!

Possible on some of the photos, but I always ordered TrueViews with my submissions.

Maybe @PCGSPhoto can shed some light on this?

lilolme

What is this?

PerryHall

Looks like an unstruck planchet that has been through the rim unsetting process. What is the weight and diameter?

lilolme

I have no clue as it is one of the images that appears on the OP noted website. I thought I might be unstuck but the markings at 7 o/c made me wonder.

A collector could spend hours and hours on that site....and would need a separate storage drive for all the downloads. Fun site, but I have to go to work. Cheers, RickO

lilolme

Is this a die break or cud on Rev.?

PerryHall

@jwitten has a 1927 quarter eagle with a die break in the same area so I'm guessing that is what it might be although the shape is quite odd so it could be something else.

lilolme

1928 Indian - A wild shape that caught my eye.
Last one for now. this reminded me of a jigsaw puzzle.

Ex jewelry.

So that is a repair. Thanks. The shape looked to wild.

I really like this one:

lilolme

This seems like something for @BillJones

Color??

@braddick Is this lowball or damaged

And one more, getting closer

This has to make it for LB.

I bet this is a little darker in hand. Note the orientation of the rev. pic.

@ricko Found a ship

Wasn't someone doing something with 1922 D? Don't know why this one is in there.
