about 1979 I was in New Orleans and found this dime in a coin shop it had a plug in then. but as the years when on some how it fell out here its
thanks but I still wish I had the plug to sent it off to ANACS I had one so called expert at Community coin forum tell me it was drilled. there all fools at CCF!!!
Here's an Idea. Put it on e-bay. Title: Seated-Dime: Unplugged!!!!! Description: "Up for auction, this very unique 1850's dime that spent one too many nights in a saloon. As can be seen, it was on the wrong side of a bowie knife. The hapless owner tried to repair the damage, but helas, to no avail. Examine the angle of the hole and just imagine, to your horror, what might have happened....." Starting Bid: Priceless
I've heard of people collecting holed coins but never plugged coins. So maybe you just increased the value.
"there all fools at CCF!!!" An interesting comment since I see several of the members here contributing there as well! Just another fool! Richard
I thought that dime was in Jessie James's pocket when someone tried to stick a knife in him and the dime saved his life? :whistle: I'm sure I can find the DNA report on it, laying around here somewhere? :kewl: Ribbit
I wish I could be added to the list of fools there, but alas, I can't. I just get to be a fool here. Ribbit
ask amac44 he was band for just trying to get a fellow member from writing post in his name there people that will crack your pass word and post stuff & change post for you. but the folk here are nice to all member!!!! sorry I wrote the CCF dig but they say truth hurts any way.
You say that you hope we don't take offense but you say this "sorry I wrote the CCF dig but they say truth hurts any way." Which to me states that you meant it in the first place, which is like saying "I'm going to insult you but please don't feel insulted" Don't work that way Richard
I am not hurt I have very thick shin and I am not hurt. just PO about what happen to me at the CCF caused by halfbustisbetter that the only fool on the CCF in my eye's! he is a a fool a scamper that will lie and just mess with other member's but Bobby felt that I was the problem not he. but you can read all amac44 post's there and see what I mean.
I had no question that you had a bad time there, just that you generalized and lumped us all together richard
I'd like to see the drill bt that made the hole, I could use a bit like that at work some days. I also need a square bit and a D-shaped bit.
