Here's a fun one: IN GOD WE TRUS - I'm thinking this is a grease filled die and not simple wear. Especially since the S looks comparatively...
Poor cent has had a rough life, but that hasn't hidden it's scars from the mint police. :) Came across this during my wheat roll searching this...
I'm not sure if this is a lamination or pmd... I'm trying to tell whether a hit folded the metal back on this rim or if this is a planchet error....
Hey all, I just got back from a visit with my folks. While there I discovered that my dad had a bank bag full of Denver mint clad Eisenhower 1976...
So I'm confused. I just received an advertisement for a '2021 1 oz American Silver Eagle BU (Type 2)' starting at $40.87 from APMEX:...
Ok, I'm pretty sure this is not a detached lamination (the raised grooves are strange), but what is this? Just some weird sort of PMD? I would...
I believe this is the best detached lamination I've encountered so far. No idea why the upper edge of the detachment(?) is so straight, though....
So I'm still churning through my 'pound-o-international-coins' my little sister got me and came across this Brazilian 10 cent piece. For...
Hey all this steel showed up in a roll of wheats I went through a couple days ago. I thought it was incredible luck but after seeing this thread...
So my little sister ordered me a gift of 'a pound of coins' where you get sent a pound of eclectic international circulation coins. It's been a...
This is a weird one. With all the black gunk on it I just figured that there was some reaction that dissolved the copper plating, but then I saw...
Found this in a roll of wheat pennies I bought. Humans are annoying... [ATTACH] [ATTACH] I don't suppose there's a way I could convince you all...
Sorry for the flurry of posts - I've been going through a few rolls of wheat pennies and finding fascinating (if badly damaged) coins. The good...
So... the first thought that comes to my mind is: why is Sothebys providing a picture of someone mashing the multi-million dollar gold coin...
Hey, here are a couple of fun die chips in the lower part of liberty's 'B' and in the 5. I'm not quite sure if there is the start of an IIB chip...
Here's what looks to me like a lamination crack on the reverse of a 1944S LWP. How it completely separated the lower left leg of the A in America,...
I'm presuming this is a lamination - the edge crack looks too defined to be some sort of die break. Whatever it is, it looks like it's been there...
So, how's this for a tragic result. I've got what I think here is a: 1) 1982 zinc [ATTACH] 2) With a large date [ATTACH] 3) and with a thick...
Found this while going back through my penny jar a second time. I'm actually assuming this is an improper alloy mix - it's not as cool as...
I have a question about mint mark placement. Is unusual position considered a variety? Can't seem to find much in google except of course the...
