Nice coins! My Barber grades are all over the place. I did end up with several quarters in AU58 though, which was a good price point for my...
Makes me wonder if they mixed the tolerances for proof and business strikes together. Something like business is .008mm, proof is .017mm, and...
As a guppy, it was an eye-opening experience for me. I had no idea who Roger was at the time, and when I was banned, the president accused me of...
From that image it looks like a retained struck-through. But I think my brain is flipping it from incuse to raised because of the shadows along...
Have you looked at the PCGS gallery? There's one that matches yours pretty closely (third one down)....
I guess I should look at my change more carefully. When I see a shield cent I toss it in the jar without a second thought. More fun for somebody...

The early photographs I referenced above were from The Early Coins of America, Sylvester S. Crosby 1875. Just thought I would follow up. From the...
It's been a lot longer than that. Researching the 1652 NE threepence that surfaced 5-6 years ago, I recall finding photos of someone's coins from...
I think their stated listing policy has always been for show, and listening to people like you to actually remove listings was also a token...
Have you gone to the auction house for a refund?
Not sure what you mean by that. I don't see any change to their listing policy....
This sounds like the 1894-S dime ice cream story all mixed up with the fact that Samuel Brown and then Col. Green once had all five 1913 nickels....
Too bad it's harshly cleaned or I'd be all over it. Seller pics for posterity: [ATTACH][ATTACH]
All I can say from these photos is that the corrosion spots on the reverse seem to indicate that it's copper plated pot metal.
It's interesting that the portrait changed after only one year, then he died and that was it. I don't recall if there was a reason for the change....
Guess someone has to post a Voyageur. [ATTACH]
Last silver found in change, about 6 years ago. [ATTACH]
