I question the concept of a grading set. You start with the best struck date of the series. I don't think you can use these to compare with other...
nice original coin ! I'm not expert enough to really grade that series, but would have to say no less than a G-6. I'd much rather have stuff...
No problem, glad to help....whatever I did ! :cool:
The 66 looks cameo to me.
Take two coins, a 1935 Silver dollar, and a 1979 SBA dollar, compare them, handle them, you'll get a good idea, and that's only 44 years of time.
I read something about this awhile back. The image on the Sac looks something close to the way Panamamian people look. There was some reason they...
I don't think there is any metal left that's suitable and cheap enough. Aluminium may not be any cheaper than zinc I I'm not sure of the top of my...
Outstanding deal !
You should be able to find a bag of them, they have to be somewhere. I don't think they can ever be melted, is the gov't going to eat their...
Actually I think the obverse of the sac, and reverse of the Ike are the best designs since the WL half was retired. Some of the state quarters are...
The SL quarters probably weren't saved because of the Great Depression in the early 30's. Basically no coins really made 1931-1933, a few cents,...
I don't like the Lincoln cent because it led to the Washington quarter, Jefferson nickel,Roosevelt dime, Franklin and Kennedy halves, Ike...
The 1818 quarter pictured beneath the nickel looks quite nice from the obverse picture. It's Borderline Uncirculated ( BU ? ) priced at $1495...
porous is not weak or barely, it's more a description of the surface as being granular, pitted, damaged. 1943 cents are often porous looking.
I got my Coin World today, CD ad on p.12 has an odd item 1918/17-D nickel for $4950 in VF/ XF detail. They describe it as having folder gunk...
They will always be too common. Even putting away rolls of 1923 Peace dollars in 1923 would have been a bad investment. Unopened bags of them were...
0 I don't save modern crap.
Looks better out of the holder. I'd bet it would be slabbed as AU without a problem, but it really doesn't need a slab. It should be very...
It looks like it's been rubbed with something mildly abrasive, like baking soda, from the pics.
It could be a weak strike, it is hard to tell with the pics, either way it's not terribly valuable, as a weak strike should sell for a discount.
