Welcome to the forums! :D I'm sorry, but your quarter is sadly just damaged. :sorry: Finding a real error coin in circulation can be tough, and...
Ok, here is a scan from CQR, in G-6 average (which is what I graded yours as) it is valued at roughly $90.00. [ATTACH] As to your question on...
Here is one of the commonly used large cent rarity scales. Your coin would be considered scarce. :) [ATTACH]
I don't have very much expertise on the silver coins, but I can help you with the large cent. It's a S-239, with a rarity of 3. That means there...
Entry post for the cob. :)
Looks legit. I am guessing that the seller just recently bought a few collections.
Most are culls. One of my dealers sets aside the large cent culls for me at $1.50 each. The price per coin in this lot is 10 times more. I would pass.

I wanted to also say that the other side of the coin opposite of the mark is pushed out ever so slightly. So I am pretty confident that it was...
Hello fellow forum members! I picked up this Morgan from the junk silver bin at my LCS. It appears to have a chop mark on the obverse, there is a...
One of the worst fakes I have ever seen, and a fake holder to boot! :yack:
Not die shift, it's a die break, more commonly known as a "cud". Your coin is the die variety JR-1. Pretty much all JR-1 1796 dimes have the exact...
Looks like it was struck, flipped and then struck again, but what do I know. Lets see what someone with more experience says. :) @Fred Weinberg...
Ptolemaic coins have always been my favorites. Just the heft of some of them is astounding to me. Neat examples!
