I'm not sure how to tell that, to be honest...
Here's the best I could do. It's easier to see it in person, but I think you can see it clearly on the right side of the image. At first glance...
Just discovered something else about the coin... According to what I've read, V nickels all had a plain edge. Well, this coin appears to have...
Here we go: http://www3.nf.sympatico.ca/donna.penney/coins/VNickelA.jpg http://www3.nf.sympatico.ca/donna.penney/coins/VNickelB.jpg Like I...
Oops, my bad... I'm a Canadian and not long into collecting... I'll get the hang of it eventually. ;) I'll take a pic for comparison give me...
Hi folks, I bought a roll of Barber Liberty Head nickels awhile back and today I decided to take a closer look at them before I sell them off....
Thanks, I didn't know that! I saw St. George and the dragon on the back, and instantly thought "sovereign". My education continues...
Thanks Drusus! And thanks Andy! Of course... I was so focused on the cameo that reminded me so much of Spanish treasure coins I've seen, that I...
Here is the picture that CoinManage shows for a 1820 Sovereign. Maybe the wear on my coin confuses the issue, but I think they look like two...
Hi folks, I recently bought these four coins and I'm having trouble identifying the last two. They get older as we go down the list... :)...
How out of the loop do you have to be to consine someone to sell things for you on eBay?!! I hope you reported him...
I doubt they could even conceptualize a billion dollars back in the 30's, let alone make a bill... I doubt there was that much money in the entire...
I got burned by third party slabbers early in the game, but now I just buy from top tier grading companies. When buying unslabbed coins off eBay...
I thought companies like PCGS guaranty their coins so that if they slab a coin that turns out to be fake they'll buy it off you for what it was...
I know it's kind of hard to tell from the pics, but the field (flat empty parts of the coin?) of each coin is free of any scratches you would...
Actually, you bring up a great point! There's no reason to think they were part of a set and it explains quite a bit about the quarters condition....
They were already in these holders and I bought the 10 of them as a lot. I didn't pay very much for them since I knew "the seal" was broken, but I...
On another note, the quarters that came with these 1965 sets don't want to fit in my standard airtite holders... the quarters are too big. However...
I'm pretty sure they did, which was why I was removing them from their holders. There are water spots on some of the holders and on some of the...
Tonight I took a closer look at coins in 10 1965 mint sets I bought awhile back. They were all taken out of the mint cellophane and put in those 5...
