I overlaid a business strike 1970 s small over a proof strike 1970 s small...and to me they appear identical...the only difference being the...
Hi Mike28, unfortunately those are both common. Unless the 1972 is a Double Die Obverse (DDO), then you're looking at face value. -LTB
THAT would be cool; to have a new variety. JP, I don't think you ever mentioned where you found yours? Did you get it in change, or did you...
Oops, yes, I corrected; thanks! -LTB
Oh interesting; so I guess the red ones could be jukebox quarters or protest quarters :smile -LTB
Yeah, very lame pic...sorry about that; but it's not mine. At first glance, I thought this was a small, then after I enlarged it, I thought...
I believe it was here that I read about Jukebox Quarters... When an establishment's atmosphere started to wane, the barkeep would drop a few...
Great news bud! But did I read correctly that the coin dealer, slabbed your coin, put a grade on the slab and then charged you $42? With that kind...
:confused: :bigeyes: :eek: Whelp, I'm happy for Jesse P in that he has a small date, but I'm bummed because I was wrong...right when I...
I can see the 7 is clearly lower, the 9 is not absolute because of the picture quality, but appears to point at the mint mark. I didn't know the...
The pics are pretty terrible, but using the one that RLM enlarged and the pics from lincolncentersource.com, I came up with a comparison based on...
Yeah, based on the best pic you provided, that's a large date. But that's just what I'm seeing; I hope I'm wrong. -LTB
That's a nice coin...but do you think all of those tiny hairline scratches on the fields will allow it to get MS grading? -LTB
Wow; great scores...knowledge is power! Congrats. -LTB
I think there are far more collectors that collect as hobbyists than those that collect as hobbyists for financial gain. And if the hobby were...
I don't think they're fake, just in poor quality. Besides, the OP got his rolls from the Release ceremony on Thurs, and his have the same type of...
I agree, all of the coins are like this. Did the Mint use an abrasive polish, or perhaps new machinery that damages the surface when they're...
Nah, I think the light caught a scratch just right to make it appear to be above the surface other than below. -LTB
Ok, here are pics of a random coin I pulled from the roll. I positioned the lights so you could see the scuffs that we're referring. It almost...
I got one of the puerto rico rolls, with the intent to sell them on the bay, but after cracking open the roll, the obverse was covered in those...
