That doesn't surprise me one bit ! The faked $3 coin would have to weigh properly....and I guess that means having close to a $200 melt...
Would a counterfeit be made of Gold ? If not weight should tell if it is a fake.
it is what it is, LOL ! An impaired proof 1962 quarter is worth silver value. Different if this was a Pf-67 cameo or something, it is not. No...
Too late ! It's an impaired proof ( junk silver really). Laying the reverse on his fingers ruined it already plus the light circulation.... Junk...
Nicely frosted....perhaps a candidate for some sort of acetone bathing ? Most 64's have no frost to them, unlike later proofs. With spots it...
looks proof
I'm glad they got caught ! Very dumb thieves, assuming this is junk silver and not high quality stuff...one could easily sell these for 10X of...

Your average teenager wouldn't know who the first President was Your average Doctor wouldn't know who the 2nd one was !

There will be some sort of monetary unit in the distant future of 100-1000 years. There will still be classes of people and relatively rich and...
The gas thing is ridicurous, everybody just pumps to a roundish amount like $54. Even if it is $53.67...no problem with credit. Even at the...
373 1916-D dimes would be a hoard. Why are so many of those in AG condition while the 1909 -SVDB cents are usually uncirculated ?
How do you produce a billion of them before detecting the problem ?
I agree ! You are selling it as junk. If it's silver it's silver ! It's like calling the oil company to ask the price of home heating oil. What...
So by my calculations ( at 85%) you'd be paying about 18X today. That is fair but not great. My local dealer just quoted 19X. My problem is...
