    LOL ! So they say, but it's not just timing pal, there's 5 things you gotta do right to make money on coins. But if you get just 1 wrong - you'll lose ;)

    okbustchaser I may be old but I still appreciate a pretty bust Supporter

    Come on now. Just because I have over 200 1827 halves while there are only 58 recognized die marriages and die states...Doesn't mean I'm "carried away".




    I don't have a problem...I can quit any time I want!;)

    #1 reason for me to start learning how to attribute Overton Varieties was counterfeit detection.

    If you have a coin and you can not determine which Obverse Die & which Reverse Die was used, guess what, it's either a discovery of a new Die Marriage or it's a counterfeit. The chances of discovering a new Die Marriage are very very slim ;)
