Thanks, As good as a hug!!!!!!!!!!!!

Greetings All, I recently received my coins back from the latest bulk sub, all 3 of them. All were deemed to be ungradable. Let me start off by saying that this is NOT aimed at JB. IMHO, he goes above the call of duty for all of the membership. I thought all of my 3 coins were solid EF-AU, and would...

WTGMM

Hey Chris, When I tried to post pictures on my Dell laptop, I got an error message stating that my photos were too large for the area provided. So my stepson used his I Phone to log in to my VW account, and it worked on the first try, except for the crappy pic. That is probably the fault of the trai...

OOPS, Still having trouble sharing photos. The only way I got this one in was by using a friends I phone. When I try to use my laptop, it gives my an error message saying, in layman's terms, that my photo is too big. This is the only time in my life that I've been penalized for "too big" lol. Anyway...

Trial photo. Please critique.

Good story Bob. Would love to see pics. White tail or muley? I've got an 8 pt. (eastern count) feeding in my yard, but wife won't allow shooting of yard deer. I've been having trouble posting pics, but will try again on the 8 pt.

Happy Trails

A very Merry Christmas, somewhat belated, to all of my VW friends, along with an early Happy New Year wish. On another matter, are any of you deer hunters having any luck? I would love to see some pics. I'll put mine up if I can ever see anything but does and fawns.

Hey Anybody, Is there a photo attached to this message?

Wife said don't shoot the yard deer.

Hey CC, A beauty of a coin, right down to the ear hair. I was reading about the 14.8 in the Vams by Date section of VW and didn,t see an "I# or R#". Why is that?

JB, Well said. Spoken like a true rocket scientist. For now I'll have to stick to words like "ear hair" and "bald spots".

Thanks CC, Good info, I'll have to give upside down a try.

JB and Yoke, I guess my ear hair phobia goes to eye appeal more than anything, which is an element of grading, isn't it. I can't stand an uncirculated coin with a "giant" bald spot near center obverse. For the most part I stay away from them. It's kinda like a target, you concentrate on the bull, no...

Thanks for the late-nite comeback. The word I was thinking was "condition", but grading and condition are certainly related. So, Is there a spot or area you go to first? Isn't the ear hair the most strike sensitive area?

When looking at an uncirculated Morgan dollar for the first time, under magnification, is there a certain area on the coin that you always look at? For example, I always first look at the hair "blob" above the ear. It seems to be the area for the most variances between uncirculated Morgans, and prob...

Thanks for all the looks and comments. For some reason, I thought I might have a new variety, but what the heck do I know? I will definitely include this coin in JB's next bulk sub. Thanks Again, Walt

Looks like all stars, incl rev, are at least slightly doubled. Can't see the doubling in date, but could be there.

Will send check tomorrow for 4.

Kenny, Thanks for looking. Did you look close enough to grade my picture quality, or to formulate an overall grade opinion for the coin?
