New True View Photos and Grading Advice

ONETHREE

I bought the older silver dollars raw. Please give me your opinion as to the defects you see in the Congress and USO dollars. I knew they were not 70's, but I must be missing something. I saw the small spots in the fields, but I thought a lot if it is toning. I guess spots of any sort are gonna cost you two to three points. My inital thoughts were the USO was a 69 and the congress was a 68. Both came back 67.
Also, on cert number 384361 is that some sort of die issue on the bottom of the coin? (The Native American also looks as if he has a black eye!)

Anyone? Bueller?

I would complain that the reverse on the first True View is mis-aligned.

I see what you mean. It is not so far off that it really bugs me.

I think they were looking at the words "One Dollar" instead of the words above to align the reverse like they did the other coins below

I'll say it looks like a black eye! Must have used a slightly different light source! As far as the 67's, yes, the spots will have an impact.

What about the USO coin? What do you see there?

Edit: I guess there are a few spots on that one I had not noticed in the 10 o'clock and 1 o'clock on the obverse. Gotta remember the darn loupe!

What? no comments about the nice pictures from the "discontinued" Tru-view program?

You need merely ask for them under the other section. Execellent job as always. I thought they really captured what is good "in hand" about the USO and Congress dollars, namely the shades of color.
