I'd just like to stress (maybe my images aren't quite showing it well enough) that the irregularly shaped bit outlined by the dark gray (which...
Some of you might remember when I found my first 1967 SMS Kennedy Half QDO (it came back from NGC as MS66UCAM) - well, today I found my second...
Ha ha, thank you but let's not get carried away here. I'm not anywhere near their level yet. But I appreciate the kind words. I added a new...
I'm not so sure, as there appears to be more than just the damage to the rim. Looks to me like the sliver of metal under IGWT is separated from...
Pulled this from a nice 1972 Mint Set - thankfully it's not anywhere near as beat up as my last find - "Fun Mint Set find...with a catch" - but it...
I've had several coins that I wish I'd have been able to keep (I did very well when I sold them, but the only reason I sold them in the first...
If they'd made a proof Morgan, I'd have been excited for that (and made an attempt to get one.) I'm not really a fan of the design (never have...
So, maybe this is a dumb question, but will the new Master List site be linked through the conecaonline.org site, or will it be separate? Also,...
Good evening! I have a decent sized pile of UNC Ike Dollars and BU 40% Kennedy Halves (1968D and 1969D) I'd like to offer for sale. NOTE: All...
Sorry, it's Mechanical Doubling (or Strike Doubling.) Flat and shelf-like, no separated serifs. Just FYI - only so you can use the correct...
Thank you for that. As I was waiting to hear back, I was trying to visualize it and (surprisingly) that's what I was speculating. Appreciate...
Thank you for the response, Chris - just a quick followup (so I can visualize what's happening a little better): The die is deteriorating to the...
Good morning. I have an honest question about a coin. I'm assuming it's not valuable nor special - but I'd just like to know what causes the...
Yeah, I was thinking MS62PL at best. Might still be fun to see what it gets. I have some NGC credit I need to use at some point before it expires.
I had a gorgeous 1970 D a couple weeks back that was just on the cusp of PL...with what looked like a long staple scratch right down the center of...
Yep, was in the original mint cello. Stuck out like a sore thumb (the proof like quality of the strike) - but you could still really see all the...
So, I'm going through a huge batch of US Mint Sets, and stumbled across this lovely proof like 1976 D Kennedy Half. Sure, I was excited...at...
(Agree - as a consistent watcher of nature shows ever since Marty Stouffer's Wild America, I've always had a deep appreciation for wild animals -...
You know, I haven't actually ever seen a live, whole salmon in person, so I suppose it would depend on how spread out the coins were? (I get the...
I wouldn't mind having a comparable horde of Mexican 5/10 Centavos (small size) like @paddyman98's coin - love me some Mexican silver.
