I see some are suggesting the elimination of the dollar bill to help the economy. That is also a completely ridiculous suggestion, mainly because...
I found it today in a roll of Brinks-wrapped cents. I looked at the date, spun it around and looked at the AM, and I saw it was wide-AM, then I...
Well, it's really not that far fetched. The fed was secretly melting silver after the switch to clad. I would recommend saving pre-'82 copper, but...
Your coin was treated with acid, which ate away much of the outer layer. That's what causes that orange peel effect. So, it's an example of an...
It's necessary because if every purchase were rounded up 5 cents, that would cause a substantial loss for either the consumer or supplier over...
Actually, none of the coins have their silver content stamped on them, just their face value.
I don't know how many people throw pennies on the ground... but regardless, the penny is absolutely necessary to the American economy. Those who...
I went to the local flea market today, and the regular coin dealer there had some silver rounds for $12 each. I was suspicious, since the price...
I'm not sure what you mean, but to vote, just say which coin you'd like to vote for. You can vote once for each category. This is the last day for...

I don't think it's either. My first impression was that it was a cracked planchet. I believe those are caused by improper alloy mixtures, so...
Yes, you're right. I was trying to get over on you. That's why I told you to get the coin certified. Believe what you will. For your persistence...
I like it, but I think it gets dark a little to early. I don't know much about photo editing software other than MS paint, but I think it should...
Well, yes, that would be quite true, if the coin were authentic. I really don't like to beat a dead horse, but I cannot stress enough the fact...
My advice to you would be to listen to the people who know. I'm very confident that this is not a mint error by any means. Last time I checked,...
Actually, I don't think that's a post-strike lamination. I think it's either a pre-strike lam or a cracked plancet, because the letters that are...
Not to be rude, but I'm quite familiar with the process of overdating. I call it an error because I really don't think that was the intended...
Well, I suppose that could be said, but really these coins are open to interpretation. I would be inclined to think they're tokens, and you...
Well, I don't work at a bank, but I've seen the vault door on some banks open many times. I never examined it, but from what I've seen, it's...
