I have an unc 1929 QE... check this out... die scratches? what do you think?Raised behind the feathers
My two cents: Planchet mark/defect not removed during the strike due to the incuse design.
It is not that life is short, but that you are dead for so very long.0 -
QE’s are special:


Especially like the Classic Head design + NO gold!

The 1870-S and 1902 were my grandmother's graduation gifts in 1914. I inherited them when she passed in 1976. I would like to have seen the 1902 when it was first struck, as the surfaces are somewhat reflective, rather than the usual satin surfaces.


I purchased this 1847 PCGS XF45 in a Teletrade auction in 2000, and have always felt that it was undergraded.

Lowly VF20...but a nice Dahlonega none the less.

That obverse looks a lot better than a 20.

There is something very special about these little QE's2 -
Honestly, this is probably the denomination that I have the most examples of outside of perhaps Morgan’s…

I’m a little too lazy to go back and look and see if I have already posted this, if I have, forgive me, but I bought this back in 2020 and I consider this the most undergraded coin in the collection:

Seriously looks 64, if it was mine I would get it beaned, don't crack it out imho.

Honestly, as much as I love the holder, and as little as the price increases, for me to crack that holder, I would literally have to be guaranteed a 67 which, of course, this is not… But a gold bean would look nice on the holder!
Maybe one of these days I’ll send it over… But no, I will most certainly preserve that holder. That’s actually the reason I bought the coin was because it was in one of the gold foil fatty’s. And the holder is like perfect no scratches at all to speak of.
