Also waiting on Tuskegee. All of mine from circulation but most are MS. When they first come out, I keep the nicest one I can find. Often I get...
Yes the mint mark is not a big deal. But the coin is very cool. (Both off centers in the thread.)
He is asking proof price for an uncirc coin. (If it is really MS 65). NGC lists this coin (in MS 63) at $30 and proof at $200. Agree with Spirit...
There's something about this area that I am not sure about. On the genuine coin shown early in the thread this blank area is present on both...
Yeah I didn't get that clip thing either. But I didn't want to show my ignorance. A clip is missing part of the planchet.
Never gotten a buffalo. Although I did get a 42-S silver nickel. As for the perfectly good dimes coming out, sometimes people dump the coins in...
Great semi key on the 11-S and very good condition. Reverse is nec. High VF perhaps XF on the 11-S. Medium VF on the 21-S.
There is a small and large date for this year. Same values and then the LD is worth more in AU. I am at XF.
Do you have a scale with tenths and hundredths? The wear is interesting, because if genuine, it means this coin was spent and circulated....
Unlikely to have a 40% silver planchet still in the bin 4 years later. Ring test is no measure of anything. As for the weight clads are 11.34g...
If it is fake, manufactured post mint, no point in having it slabbed. How did you acquire it? Cost? Etc. I am only asking because things like that...
The 1913 V nickel is an illegal coin as it was never authorized by the mint, and clandestinely produced by a rogue mint worker with proof dies....
The 1916 seems to be in very good shape VF 35. And the 1930 F-15. The 1930 buffs all look very worn /overused dies.
Assuming it was real, it would be impossible to have a mint mark from Philadelphia, and a mint mark from Denver. The good news is a magician's...
She takes it to a place where she buys beads/silver etc. And sometimes she has scrap silver to redeem. So they will test anything she brings in...
Pretty much a bust. But then this Hershey's Kiss charm is stamped 925 (China). GF thinks it's real, but I will get it tested to see. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Quarter and a penny stuck together on the grill. A little warm water and dish soap and degluified cleanly, easily and quickly.
Had to go to 2 stores. .50 and .11. Not complaining. As Lefty said in Donnie Brasco when he was trying to break open a parking meter: "A score's a...
As Paddy says a thicker planchet. While it is out of tolerance, it's only slightly out. 2.98- 3.24. But it is cool and worth keeping. And as...
Agree with glue and possibly paper stuck on there too. Drop it in acetone, it might help. And it can't hurt.
