    I can attest that the images are a true representation of what the coins really look like in person.

    The Austrian half kreuzer does indeed look to have some sort of graffiti on it as Phil's great photo points out, but it can't be that bad in reality, almost invisible as far as I can remember when I bought it, which is why it escaped from me and from Don when he submitted it ,although he probably didn't have enough time to look at it closely back then.

    The Russians are much more red, lustrous and attractive in hand,as their grade suggests, I think these two photos overexpose some minor defects and don't show the real luster.

    The Greek 1883 50L comes from a recently found roll of 40 choice/gem pieces of an extremely tough date in unc ,and the only MS65 in both services, next in line are some 64s from NGC.

    Overall very happy, my own grade estimates were more conservative.

    nice... is there an easy way to down load the pictures here on the forum if they take the picture? And let me take a moment to say how great these pictures are...

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

  • SYRACUSIANSYRACUSIAN Posts: 6,461 ✭✭✭✭
    Kat, it is pretty easy. If you right click on any of these photos, go to properties then copy and paste their url in the image box (4th from left, the one that looks like Mount Fuji). The picture should show up, regardless of size, as it is not hosted in the PCGS website and does not have to be under their 50kb limit. This applies to any pictures uploaded to any other website.

    All trueView photos ,again an excellent value at $5 IMHO that also seems to speed up the entire turnaround can be found and retrieved here:Text

    Retrieval
    The standard size for all all TrueView images is 550 pixels by 278 pixels and are under 100kb in size, perfect for eBay and the PCGS Set Registry. However, crisp large-scale photos that are 4400 pixels by 2220 pixels are also available to any TrueView customer on CD (or DVD depending on volume) for a small fee. These large scale images are perfect for beautiful prints and for numismatic study.

    To access your standard sized photos, please follow these five easy steps.
    • To retrieve your TrueView photos, simply open your web browser and proceed to www.pcgs.com
    • Scroll down until you see a link entitled 'Cert Verification' on the left side of the page.
    • Once you have clicked 'Cert Verification' the page will now ask you to enter the certification number (i.e. 50143963)
    • Once you have entered the cert number all the information on your coin should appear including a smaller version of your TrueView photograph.
    • To see the larger version simply click on the smaller picture and a new image will pop up in a separate window.
