Pulled this from a cull group (it's got some graffiti/ wear). But there's something going on in the mintmark that caught my eye. On review, it...
I picked this up recently. Any idea why so many of the Broas Bros dies ended up clashed, shattered, and kept being used? Was the manufacturer...
The Cherry Picker Guide has a less than helpful diagnostic for this coin. Despite arrows to areas to check, I only see a telltale doubling at the...
Checking for some error varieties in an old change jar, I came across this 1972 with mild date doubling and a strange 2nd rim around 3/4 of the...
Went through a stash of older, unsearched pennies from an estate (the vast majority were pre-1985) with my handy Cherry Picker's guide and found...
Picked this up in a dealer's half price bin at the Houston Money Show last weekend. Almost didn't even check my Cherrypicker's Guide before...
I recently picked this up while looking for an exhibit worthy illustration coin. [I'm seeking a few good Roman & Greek examples of classical...

For a while now, I've been seeing banner ads for wildly underpriced coins that are obvious fakes. I've tried reporting them, flagging them for...
This is a neat bullion piece, but I don't know if the "high relief" label really fits. It almost reminds me of Byzantine cup coins. I put the NGC...
This 1898-O appears to be a near (or very near) date, with just a hint of doubling under the first 8 in the date. There's a mild die break on the...
Picked up this in a group of "junk" coins today. I'm trying to decipher the initials though. What are your thoughts? [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
I got fed up with the obvious fakes being advertised on Facebook. American Silver Eagles, $5 apiece, monster boxes of 1894 $20 gold pieces all...
These come in a few varieties (large or small crown, curled L's, last L curled, or pointed L's). They were also made in bronze & copper, both of...
Just picked up this high grade 1944 S 50 centavo. I think it ticks off the boxes for the newly discovered mule (if mule is the right word for...
This one's a bit rough. I'm not familiar with the series, but I'm fairly confident on the 1788 date. The horse's head on this piece doesn't seem...
Book value on these is surprisingly high. With 2 holes punched & a major edge ding, I suspect that this is a less desirable piece than most, but...
Dime sized, Edward VII effigy on obverse with no legend. Reverse reads "ONE / CENT / 1902". ~17mm diameter (dime sized) and either heavily...

Picked this out of a dealer's bulk Morgans yesterday. I liked the reverse die break (Star to ONe). But, something is strange about the coin. No...
