Only kidding, but it is .999 silver. My grandson gave it to me as a joke (same grandson who drew the avatar of me)
[ATTACH] Here's my find.
So let me get this straight, the Mercury Dime I have with "Full Bands, and the Franklin Half I have with "Full Bell Lines"":, and The Jefferson...
Why do some Franklin Halves not have "Full Bell Line"? It's the quality of the strike. Same with the Mercury Dime- good strike=full bands.
Here's my Cheerios Cent, I just keep it for fun, I don't think it's worth much or even worth certifying. Sort of like a GSA Coin, best if in its...
These are a few of the Daniel Carr metals I have. The one in the upper left slab is the coin struck on a quarter blank he found in the Denver...
Keep in mind the full bands are a small delicate feature and with the softness of the 24K gold they might not be able to show the sharp detail the...
I'm a Daniel Carr fan, I have several of his signed strikes. It started with the signed state quarters he did and has extended to the Moonlight...

I'm in your age group and I just got the 21, see post above, but still have hopes for the 16-D. The TV Shows use the PCGS and NGC numbers all the...

I don't want anyone, who may take offence with this post, to think I'm directing it toward anyone in particular. As a member of the Board of...
Miscommunication---- I wasn't talking about the Seller mentioned in this thread, I was talking about the situation in general----which means I...
Yeah I was impressed, he's only 8 yeas old. Actually, the problem with eBay, unlike other auction companies, is that the Seller pays all costs,...
Any coin, other than the early Morgan or later Peace Dollar, minted in 1921 is scarce, the mint made as many of the silver dollars as they could,...
No more Bill the Cat Avatar, my grandson drew a picture of me and I'm now using that now. Got my 1 oz. $100 Platinum Coin in the mail yesterday...
Just a quick note, no more Bill the Cat Avatar, my grandson drew a picture of me and I thought I'd use that instead. According to the Hobby...
Well I'm no longer Bill the Cat, My grandson drew a picture of me and I thought it would make a great Avatar.
