Yeah, I'm starting under the assumption that it would be an 1871... It's more likely due to the higher mintage (400k vs. 120k) plus the most...
Just added 10 new US coins and 10 World Coins to my website. Friendly reminder that the prize for my drawing this month is still pretty sweet - a...
I've had this quarter in my world silver junk bin for a bit, just now trying to figure out what the date is. Three of the digits are pretty clear...
I once found a dead lizard in a bank lobby coin counter (I always check to clear the reservoir prior to dumping any coins inside.) At first, I...
As promised, here is my example - hope it helps: [ATTACH]
I have one (1788) in my collection, will try to dig it out this afternoon after I get back from the botanic garden and share it for comparison....
I have a 1968 Mint Set like that (extra coin in the slot) although I didn't luck out and get extra SILVER like you did...plus a 1969 Mint Set...
