Not trying to be rude, but which part of the minting process caused your coin to have a yellow tint? In order for it to be an error, you have to...
I think you missed something. The large/small dates are due to different punches used on the Master hub during the die making process. While...
@paddyman98 The 1982D copper Small date would be such a significant find, PCGS would issue a press release and it would be in all the numismatic...
I would strongly suggest spending some time learning and understanding the minting process. The reason that members can say you your quarter...
@Insider I'm a little late on the response. In ceramics, we call these regions grains or domains, and they are separated by grain boundaries....
The wounded eagle variety is caused by a gouge or damage on the die. Since recessed on the die, it will be raised on the coin. Also, because it...

Die chips on dimes and quarter reverses seem to be common in recent years

Didn't they originally believe that the doubled dot was added by the mint to designate coins struck at the Denver mint?Since all 3 mints struck...
Where are you buying your analytical equipment? For good lab equipment, you may want to ADD another zero (or at least multiple by 5). Even...
Assuming your scale is reading accurately, it could be struck on a planchet that was punched from a strip that was rolled too thin. Yours doesn't...
I think it's apparent where the credibility of his posts stand. Look at the members he calls out as trolls and those that he says support the...
