Going over coins individually with thought process from Rick on each coin. Mostly Dollars, some buffs, some walkers...
Pretty cool to be able to hear his thoughts as he grades.

Interesting array of folks here. Novice to intermediate. Lots of collecting experience in many different areas.

1055: Discussion of NGC policy on dipped copper. RM: 62. I no graded due to pinkish look. Rick was unsure, wanted to give coin benefit of the doubt. He would want to see more uniform pink to no grade.
Good discussion.
