I wouldn't go that far. Cleanly missing a single letter like that I bet somebody would pay a dollar for it. It's just not "buy a yacht" or even...
In under the Tuesday wire, MST. Another tough date, both reverse types. The "thick ribbon" type (second coin) is really tough. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
If the chain is gold that was a good score. I got a thin gold chain at my wedding that weighs half an ounce, as much as the coin.
I have no idea. I've seen this type of display in almost every museum that has coins. One can hope they're inserted with extreme care and never...
You can look up tons of coins on their website. Of course, you have to know what they have and what you're looking for.
My childhood field trips were so memorable that I don't remember any of them. I vaguely recall seeing some coin exhibits in the Smithsonian ages...
Those 1845-CC dollars are difficult to come by.
Well, I believe in numbers, not all that other stuff. Basing designation of a new century (or millennium) on number of years since Jesus was born,...
Both coins seem heavily corroded. I would typically look up values on Numismedia and use 50% as a rough guess due to the corrosion. But there are...
I've never understood this "there was no year zero" argument because it makes no sense. Of course there was a year 0. You can't have a year 1...
Need better focus too. Value-wise I vote waste of time, "interesting" is up to the collector. I mean, if it was a Morgan it would get a VAM...
Barbers you say? So many fun things to collect, if you're into this kind of stuff. Obverse 1 / Reverse 2 and 1/1 RPD Discovery Coin...
I also have an 1858, but not as nice. Found in the pulper clean out pit at a recycled newspaper plant in the late 1970s. One for @lordmarcovan 's...
Lawn mower accident was my first thought too. Hopefully not in someone's pocket at the time.
I think it's a strike-through.
Including links in your posts helps. https://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/diestate.php?date=1945&die_id=1945s1mm006&die_state=mds Seems like the...
A reminder that religious freedom started it all. [ATTACH] And let's not forget the friends who helped us along the way. [ATTACH]
True, I also see 1965 frequently. But they also minted more 1965 (1.8 billion) than any other 60s clad, almost three times the total of 68, 68-D,...
$100 million, 15,000 coins set to be auctioned. Thought it was interesting....
It's all relative. 20 years ago I spent too much on some that turned out to be dogs, like this Canada 1945 $1 marketed as MS60, paid $185 thinking...
Separate names with a comma.
