Some are telling me that my photos seem to enhance or exaggerate flaws on the surfaces; I am definitely looking for input on ways I might improve my photography, folks. Next in line outa the book, 1919-D:   |

I don't know what you have been told, but these pics are excellent.  It looks to be MS and RB, but I can't say a specific grade. I did notice a die clash happening immediately east of the C in CENT on the reverse. A bit of the C can be seen just behind Abe's neck to correspond. In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

I love this one. I'm keeping him for a while - the sharp die cracks and clash marks in addition to his condition and strike make an interesting and beautiful combination to me. MS65RD+ was my guess for this coin. This one is just soooo red. I can live with that; he really does have immaculate surfaces, however, and I still thinks this deserves a 65. Perhaps the clash marks were overlooked as hits instead. I bet the arrival of the FUN inventory had definitely caused a rush around the shop last month. 1919-D MS64RB:   Edited by mamastinky

Another Nice coin. I did not notice the Clash until I saw the true view. Looks like an upside down elephant trunk behind his head.

I can see cartwheels in the slab picture - looks 65RB in that picture. It's the distraction between the CE on the reverse that holds the coin back IMO. The last PCGS pictures make it look like a lightsaber. LOL Very, very nice coin though!
