I thought this post was going to be about someone possessing an actual coin die from the mint. I won't even bother to research it. I'll just...
Many people gave him the answer, which was his coin isn't an error, it is damage done most likely by a grinder or a file. He wouldn't accept that...
Confusing the word "error" with the word "damage." Something lost in translation perhaps?
If you think that's an error, I can make more for you if you wish. I'll value them at 30 dollars per coin but since it's you, I'll only charge...
I still think some "artist" used an electric engraver with different sized tips to make it look cracked.
Teachmind is back. The "in due time" gave it away. Well, everything about his post gave it away.
No sir! Your file marks are going top to bottom and diagonally, while the file marks on his coin are going side to side for the most part,...
He's there, hiding behind the dirt. Wipe off the dirt and you'll see him.
Now that I've seen the other picture it looks like they are furrows. Someone might have used an engraving tool to make this coin look cracked....

Probably a layer of glue.
It is a star. An asterisk doesn't have a hole in the middle and 5 points.
Maybe not low serial numbers, but I meant star notes in general aren't uncommon. I see them all the time.
I find star notes all the time. Even in good condition I spend them. They aren't as uncommon as people think they are. And yes, they are...
Pinpointing isn't very hard to learn. When I was a teenager I had a sears metal detector. Not a top of the line whites or garrett, and I never...
This brings up a question. I was just reading about the types of doubling. Take the 1984 Lincoln Cent. How can the ear have such doubling on...
Think about it. If that was doubling, every letter in that word would be doubled. How could the T and Y get rotated that far over without...
I used to metal detect when I was younger. I see a lot of so-called "experienced" metal detectors these days taking a screwdriver and poking into...
How many did you find?
