No, I meant just a normal note. Does the plate number affect the value of a normal note in any way? Nice link, though! Thanks for the info.
Sure looks like a cud. If the transition from the rim and the raised metal is smooth, it's usually a cud, but if it there's an area where the rim...
I agree with Speedy. If it were off metal, there would probably be some detail loss around the edges. My guess would be either PMD or sintered.
The definition of foul language gets looser and looser all the time. These days, any word for anything extruded from the body in a natural way is...
Thanks for the tips, Clem. This forum is like owning every coin and paper money book there is. There's very little you can't find out here. I...
I think what he said at the top of the page was a joke... But at any rate, the 24D might be so worn because of the value of coins back in the...
As I always say, I'm no expert, but those coins look almost like they were sandblasted with a fine grain to make them appear brilliant? Is that...
Well, I apologize for having doubted you. Let me say then, congratulations on that haul. I suggest you return as soon as possible and grab some...
Maybe, just maybe, one of my hoards will pay off! At least with bill hoards, if I have 100 of those, that's not bad, but with 100 wheats... I have...
That's what I thought! As most coin collectors know, mintage numbers have little to do with the value of a coin. After all, there were over...
There is also a technique in MS paint where you can draw a perfectly straight line. I'm not sure what's it's called, but it's in the upper right...
It looks sorta like it to me. different types of MM varieties are not my forte by any means, but it looks like it could very well be. Maybe that...
Well, it might just be me, but seems rude. He wants you (a friend) to may MORE than face, when his only other option is to take it to CoinStar and...
There are plenty of places to hide bills. Personally, I think a good idea is to get an airtight box and bury the money. It would be nearly...
Something that I've always found strange... I've lived in the north east, and in the deep south, and in both places I've come accross plenty of...
I can't help you in regard to the coin's origin, but it looks like an ancient buffalo nickel! :yawn:
But, even if the value is only $100, and they are severely overgraded, deals like that just don't happen, not from dealers anyway. A coin or two...
Well, I assumed that if it was true, that the coins must be overgraded. A lot of new(er) collectors are guilty of that, myself included. So I...
Speedy, I think Hamman's responses were valid. I have to admit, those finds seem a bit unlikely. I mean, if I'm correct, those coins would be...
Yes, they are quite fun. Most have no value over face, but still, cool to find. Speaking of stars, I found another $1 star note today. I...
