It can stay that way up to 7 days according to card network rules, unless the mint issues a Reversal on the Auth. Otherwise it should drop off...
As an aside, I have absolutely no doubt that this approach of theirs is going to wind up with a slew of failed credit card charges come October or...
Yup, looks like you are correct. My mistake. Unfortunately @Conder101 beat you to the correction. :D Edit: I can also confirm this in Step Five...
Indeed, my mistake. That would allow them to easily guarantee the missing reed location then, of course. And, I suppose, the same would be true...
It's only an Auth - no money has been removed from your credit card. That won't happen until they're shipped.
Oh, yeah, that was a pain in the behind. And you're right - there was a noticeable pause once I chose the CC from the drop down - so much so that...
CC charges have two steps, first the 'Auth' which deducts only from your available credit, but doesn't pull money from your card (it just keeps...
Nope, in fact I preloaded my credit card about 30 minutes before they went on sale so I wouldn't have to type it in. My problem was that I had to...
So with this new pic the lighting is better and I have to agree with @paddyman98 - this looks very much like an adhesive was added to it -...
The uneven coating makes me wonder if someone rubbed mercury on it. Edit: Bah, 1943 steel of course. I had my colors reversed. :)
To me it almost seems like the front of the coin has been lacquered or coated with a clear nail polish which is beginning to wear/peel off on...
In truth this coin does not do her justice. Found this photo of her from the same year: https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/4BIAAOSwvvhfjM-j/s-l1600.jpg
Hmm, true. And with the upsetting done in a separate step prior to the strike in a traditional process, I suppose it would be very difficult to...
Thanks for the explanation guys. So basically I could boil this down to: bullion are coins (or objects?) so common that their worth is from their...
Well, it looks like some 1959 10 Centavos have sold from between $.59 to $3.00 on ebay, so you may have made a profit. :)
I'm not sure how to answer. What colors are you seeing? Your 84 that looks like the cookie monster has attacked it is zinc rot, as Sal mentioned....
That's really well preserved from the 50's. Great find!
I was facetious, but now I'm vaguely curious if the Mint is actually relying on the possibility that counterfeiters would miss the reed security...
I have a newbie question - for anybody really, not just you Garlicus. It's just that your explanation got me wondering. When is a .999 silver coin...
