I agree to that; for the record: 3.56 gm for the 1982 penny blank; 5.0 gm for the 20p. Other foreign could substitute as well. I still say...
Does not the lustre in the device recesses bother you? IMO the slight silvery look is sheen or min lustre across the surfaces and no corrosive...
Paddy - do you see what I mean about the difference in what you showed versus the OP coin? These appear at least to me quite different. And thanks...
Yes a series would be nice. Careful with any scratching please. I only say what I say as I have more than a little experience with 20th C OMS.
Uh that would NOT be a blanket offer! LOL As stated above there should not be lustre in the device recesses in an “environmental”.

LOL. It is a beauty in hand. I could not nowadays afford such a coin, even with Corona virus. I actually got this along with an 1863 proof...
Yes indeed.
It definitely is a proof, slabbed as such and gotten from Spink during it's "Grande Olde Dayes".

OK, I have been looking at some Guyana uncirculated coins from the Franklin Mint era 1976-1980. Krause has the following information: As with...
Double strike/flipover strike. Graded Proof66 by PCGS.
Should be 22k or .916. The reverse looks good if blurry, the obverse has either a fingerprint or a whipe across cheek and mouth of Lizzy. If...
OK, here are a couple. Check your colour control (or something), esp. for the second coin: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
R Yes thanks, that was gotten from an old dealer years ago.
Here is one of those big ole bad boys....GTG at PCGS...[ATTACH][ATTACH]
Former mint "slave" buyer, now mostly reformed....A definite pass on an uninspired coin that they are trying to salvage with comic "trickeration".
