It's worth it if the coin is like > 500 USD and you want to sell it. It's also nice not to worry about buying "UNC" coins and then having to...
Probably the latter then. Common error to slip by.
I see doubling for sure, but idk if it's the die or just struck twice probably the latter
The Great Depression showed the gold standard doesn't work. That was here and Britian and elsewhere. I don't think it would work in China either;...
