Jdford Valued Member United States 362 Posts	Posted 12/31/2021 12:16 pm Penny I bought. They advertised it as a Wheat penny, which I knew better being the year, looked nice and I wanted it. Grade? Report this Post to the Staff

Shooting pics through 2x2 mylar usually hinders photo quality. Yes, proof coins are a pain to photograph. The coin could fall in the PF66-68 range. Just can't quite tell from the images.

Jdford Valued Member United States 362 Posts	Posted 12/31/2021 1:25 pm Opened it without touching the coin. Makes me nervous when I do that. The A & M seem to be touching but they're not. Report this Post to the Staff
KYCopperCoins Pillar of the Community United States 1361 Posts	Posted 12/31/2021 7:08 pm My recommendation to you is to put yourself in our shoes when you post a coin, look at your photos and ask yourself, are they clean enough to show the details I see in person? I'd like to help ya, but the photos provided cannot be assessed as is. Report this Post to the Staff
Jdford Valued Member United States 362 Posts	Posted 01/01/2022 09:57 am New phone, and I'm not sure why I can't take better photos, but it makes the proofs almost impossible to shoot a picture. Zooms great on camera, but the blur is a pain. Sending it next week to be graded. Will see. Maybe they can help with the memorial error, if it is one. Report this Post to the Staff

I dont think its 68 as there are couple noticeable areas even with these photos obv K7 rim hit looks like some spotting near the obv rim K3 rev spot on field near rim at K4 Report this Post to the Staff
