If it is just under the wood chips and not in the soil, then it hasn't been there long. Once it rains, gravity/mass of the coin etc. pull it down...
People don't believe I found this coin metal detecting (because of the condition a 50 year old coin). But not everything is buried in acidic soil...
I didn't think it was a die crack because it looked like a crevice and not filled out. But pictures can be deceiving.
In the 3rd photo that's not the rim of the coin. For the 1964 penny to have silver, it would have to be a silver dime planchet that was struck...
I bet it's not lower than 1000.
Is it a broken planchet?
Good for you Jack. But they are just proving my point that it's not worth it any more to do business this way. Bring back the B and Ms.
The Eidolon NGC lists 2 of these coins business strike 11,000 minted and Proof, no mintage shown. The bus strike is only valued at 15 cents but...
Metal detecting find, it's either 80% or 90% depending on the year. I have nicer ones than this, but nothing beats the thrill of the hunt. [ATTACH]
I used to buy A LOT of coins and currency on EB many years ago. With good results. While I still buy an item here or there that I can't get...
Yes but a legit seller has no reason to fudge photos, and a photo like that would be unacceptable and they would get a better one if they are...
A legit seller wouldn't use such crappy photos. They would make the item clear to read, see, check up. Crappy photos are used intentionally as a...
The photos look nothing alike. The OP coin appears grainy and the colors on the reverse also not natural.
Since it doesn't look damaged (dryer coin, etc.) Then Paddy's thinly rolled planchet has value. I found this coin which is super thin and...
Counterfeit slab so if the buyer looks it up, it comes back legit. EBay is a disgrace. The person who posted this listing, it is an intentional...
Yes the silver melt is $5.50. And it is not in great condition, but it is still worth more than melt to a collector. NGC says $7.50 in less than G...
One reason is the current generation has no interest in coins. They rarely use cash, as it is all CC and phone digital these days, and even if...
Also it was thought that coins with mint marks were being hoarded. As the D and S mints were generally rarer than the no mint mark (P) coins. So...
These days that is probably the right price. Not too long ago that bill was $1500. What can you do?
Yes before I read the comments I assumed that gob of metal is because this was on a piece of jewelry.
