Leftover tape residue after a bath?
Did you see any new Carr pieces?
-jeffB, thanks for the heads-up!
Safe to say it has complete bell lines. But from a photo, difficult to say if it'd earn an FBL designation. Nearly all [MS 1949-D] examples are...
Can't tell from the photo, but maybe your coin was the victim of a science experiment. [MEDIA]
Year-old thread. Anyway, there's a possible explanation on this card that came with my 1971-S Silver Ike: [IMG] So I'm guessing damage was not...
I believe it's mostly for authentication. And, the protection/integrity of a slab. Slabbing makes it easier to sell too... Last year for a bunch...
Edit your ebay title to include the word "Error". That'll make it easier to find in a search by error collectors (your target audience). And...
Fun idea. But I vote a hard "NO". It feels wrong for a fantasy overstrike -- especially co-opting the 1917 broken-sword Peace Dollar design,...

The 1944 Belgian 2-franc steel coin was also produced by the U.S. (in preparation for the Allied liberation of Belgium). Mintage was 25,000,000...
What's the appeal of the "X-cancelled" clashed Morgan? I didn't get one, so this may sound like sour grapes: I prefer my 2 "non-X" clashed...
And beautifully minted. But Perth Mint calls it a coin. "...the coin is issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965." [IMG]...
Unlikely. I think $225 - $250 is more likely -- if the Seller is patient, and especially for ANACS-slabbed octagons.
10 cents each is WAY too low for war nickels (1942-1945). In circulated condition, these are easily identified by their "dirty" look and...
Love Perth's quality and variety. But I like these MUCH more as one-horse coins (without the gold gilding). [IMG]
Maybe this is a new trend. For example, Queen's Beasts bullion has the "pitted" look. [IMG]
Sorry for your loss. A magnifying glass and a Red Book will help you identify valuable coins. Definitely do NOT try to clean your coins....
And of course, use newer cents (after 1982). They're copper-coated zinc.
If you're always disappointed, forget online sites. I'm guessing you need to see your coins in-hand before you buy. -- coin shops -- coin shows...
