Same article discussed here. https://www.cointalk.com/threads/coin-news.414032/ This and the other no-S proofs is why we have all the "no mint...
No images so... good for you believing that it's copper I guess? I'll wager it ain't copper.
This one I don't know what the heck that is. No reeds, bimetal, maybe encased in something? reverse blank, bad feedback - I would skip right on by...
Same article on CBS popped up in my feed. Weird how this is getting traction and the 1652 New England threepence has been so quiet....
Maybe not obvious, but the outer reverse is from the Aztec sun stone. [ATTACH] Not sure how I got this one (it's rough). Relatives probably went...

Well, it's currently $275k with BP so I don't doubt it will hammer for half a million. The other one is owned by someone with the only complete...
Post a picture of both sides of the coin. No one can tell you anything without seeing the coin. 17 years, 3 people asking about the "same" coin...

Got one in change a few weeks ago. [ATTACH] I can't remember if I got this one in change or if my grandfather did. [ATTACH] And if you want world...

I would say ANACS is the worst. This is the same coin I posted above. They did a good job conserving and grading but their pictures... yikes....
I agree the GreatPhoto images are outstanding. Stack's does a good job too. PCGS maybe got better but for the coins I've bought that had probably...
Not an issue. The album page protects them from each other and the staples all line up on the different pages. If you're not stacking your 2x2s...
Random assortment. I don't have many photos showing the whole 2x2. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I picked up a set of three for 75 cents back in the early 70s. Reprocessed but I don't think many people knew they were doing that at the time,...
Heritage shows 16 in AU grades sold in 2024 (one AU53 Cleaned). Excluding the details coin, prices ranged $1920-2400 in AU55 and $2040-2520 in...
Thoughts? 1) Reading between the lines, it's not a 1982-D small date copper, and people should stop obsessing over that. No one is ever going to...
I doubt it, maybe a little "cool" factor. You can still buy these for not much over the original $10 price. Not a great "investment" but I still...
Here's the other star of my Canadian show. Supposedly less than 200 of the curved right variety were coined in specimen and circulation. [ATTACH]
