This new book just showed up in my Facebook feed. Now, instead of telling newbies to buy a redbook we can let them know about this book that seems to be what they are really interested in 🧐

    Seems as though a natural follow up would be “ how to photograph your finds😂😂
    Awesome post. Thanks @ Mr_Spud

    I humbly submit this blurry photo for review. These two were found on the street on separate occasions this week in our neighborhood. Do you think that they would straight grade if I sent them in :D . The one on the right is a likely candidate for the most unintentional pmd that I've seen.

    Honestly, if this was real, I’d buy a copy just for kicks.

    I love the “blurrier photos!” tag.

    @Shane6596
    I think you have a real gem there - that was made using the rarely used “acid dies” where hydrochloric acid is embedded in the dies which makes a coin look very blurry. could be worth 1000s.
