I remember learning about electrolysis in school. Figured out I could put the wires from my HO train set transformer in a bowl of water, add an...
Any explanation as to why they were labeled electrotype? Did the owner recognize they were counterfeit and assumed electrotype? It sounds like...
I read your belt sander remark and smiled. Then I scrolled down to the photos. EeeK! :jawdrop:
Where are all these window sills? Asking for a friend...
I give props for using the right "they're"
Me either :(
I think the Rube Foster obverse on the $5 coin is very, very good. I like the bus on the half-dollar, too.

Yes, please post what you've got! It would complement the linked thread by @gsalexan nicely, I imagine.
Very nice. As a byproduct of my silver proof set collecting I got all the Presidential dollar proofs without really trying. I do like them, in...
Looking at your picture, I see nothing but '09-SVDB, '22-plain, and '55 doubled dies. But my eyes aren't very good any more, so...
There is something going on at the base of the neck above the '1' but I can't tell what.
I don't know, sounds legit to me. It ships from Singapore, where most 1909-SVDB cents are usually found. And they're handmade, I'm pretty sure...
Separate names with a comma.
