J0b - I think you're in the wrong thread friend. If you've got some crowns, do share them here.

Nice looking cob arkie. I never really focused on cobs so I don't know too much about them. Is this one a sea salvage?

PCGS just has it as PR62 -- apparently they didn't notice the hairlines/harsh cleaning.


That would explain the unusually excellent detail on the coin. Stunning piece. I think PCGS is right about the PR62 status. Your example may show some hairlines (very noticeable on all proofs) but I don't know if I'd say this one was harshly cleaned.

Here are a couple of my newest pieces:

1761 Zurich City View Thaler with some nice toning on the obverse

Continuing with US dollars --

1796 (Bolender 4, die state a):

This could very well be a fake. I got it decades ago. Nowadays, I'd only buy a certified one (but these have become too expensive for me).

Interesting. I admit I am out of my depth here.

Cableguy, you're right. Forget about the pew,I wasnt in the right church. Was trying to multitask last night and failed . Allot of nice coins in this thread. This is the closest I got though...

Very nice.

Since US Dollars are a go, here is my "Crown Gem" for the record.

1978-D Eisenhower dollar

I was wondering if someone would post an Ike next.

We're still missing the Trade dollar (I don't have a nice one), so maybe someone could post one of those.

I also don't have the 1795 flowing hair type.

Happy to oblige. Color is off.. I should re-photograph this one.

Here's one that's as close to a silver crown as you can get -- just missing one proton per atom:

United States -- 25 dollars / 1oz Pd, 2018:

I was hoping this one would make an appearance in this thread -- it has perfect eye-appeal for the grade.

Thank you!

It is probably my favourite coin in the 7070.

I've seen some really high grade fakes of those Trade dollars.
