Is the 5 doubled on this 1805 25c?

    Doesn't look doubled, and it's definitely not "UNC DETAILS".

    .
    the condition is low but i feel confident it is not a 79-cc $1 either.

    I had to check my dictionary for a new definition of "neat."

    $699? I'd peg it at around $200 maybe as a hole filler. Really bad eye appeal.

    Awful pictures (scans? from a now ancient dinosaur scanner?). The 5 is not doubled-just very poor photos. Selling coins without good pictures is like shooting yourself in the foot. It is way overpriced even if good pictures were provided. I do not understand anyone who wants to get top dollar for an item using bad pictures. Poor pictures = poor auction results. It is very easy and inexpensive to get good pictures these days. The cost of a camera will be made up in the first few sales. Bob

    I thought the Unc details was a little overstated by PCGS. I was thinking more like VG details.

    I know what you mean image . When my nephew lists and puts "Nice coin" I cringe. Then I say…." It's just a coin. It's collectible or it ain't"
    This started when I told him a coin was VF_ _ and he listed it and it got "taken" down. I told him we cannot assign a grade ,so now he won't even do that because a raw coin cannot be graded unless it goes to an authorized TPG. Nobody else in the world can assign a grade image So that's a NICE VENUE.

    oooops, off topic. I don't see doubling in the digit, by the way.

    I never saw a draped bust quarter that I didn't like... until now. I do not think I could muster pride of ownership in that piece at any price.
