A broadstrike or a clip will make pretty cool individual errors. But how about we combine both into one?? Just picked this one up today....
Thanks Matthew, appreciate it! I try to make some pretty interesting threads. Something a little different. As for this little treasure hunt,...
So I challenged myself to see how badly searched dealer overstock is, and curiously bought (2) 5000 count canvas bags of wheat cents from two...
I think the it's safe to say that the higher priced coins we often hear about has the appearance of weighing more into the trends than the smaller...
I might be wrong Chris, but isn't that graph based on the entire hobby/industry as a whole? And not on any one specific grade, type or series?
How long do you soak them for in the naval jelly?
I have several in this condition, minus the cheek scratches. I would say these would grade out a low VF. There's still enough detail to warrant...
Now is this to remove rust that usually forms on these? I have about 400 of them in various degrees of grade, mostly a lot of them have surface rust.
Yeah, it was interesting while it lasted. I was hoping for some new variety as well.
I buy them for .04 cents at the shop I go to. I've just went through about 11,000 of them over the last few weeks and found some nice stuff. In...
Oh geez, where's the dislike button when you need it? :mad:
Ouch Joe, based off the photo, it appears someone put a little elbow grease into it. The hairlines and even flat gray color give it all away.
More new stuff for the weekend. One of which is this spectacular 1825 Bust Half. Anybody want to take a stab at the Overton variety for this...
Unfortunately, lots of Isabella quarters were either harshly cleaned or polished in their day. Actual original Isabella's sell for a substantial...
Picked up this nice 31 over the weekend. Any thoughts on grade? I didn't see too many distracting marks or carbon spots. [ATTACH]
I have a couple 33's like yours Ankur with that weak strike on the reverse. Although mine are VF35's. It wasn't an isolated incident like on...
I'm going to say it's machine doubling. Trust me, you'll know it's a 69-s DDO, it's about as unmistakable as a 55 DDO.
And lighten the contrast a little so it's not too dark as well. But I agree, if you're going to unearth any coin, an 09-S Indian is the cream 'o'...
Did the "Place AU Capped Bust Half on railroad" get old for you guys?
#3 for me too, #2 was a close second of course. You do a phenomenal job at these!
