Very nice coin! I'd be proud to own it.
While it seems like a workable idea at first glance, it would be very difficult to get useful results (and pretty much impossible to do without...
Could it be graffiti? Sometimes when a coin is scratched metal can get moved and make it appear to be raised. I hope it's a die defect though!
Is the arc the same radius as a half cent? My guess is that another coin may have been squished into it. Hard to tell though.
Out of curiosity I decided to look up all the other coins in the group. The first four had star designations and then I got to the fifth one:...
I already have seen its grade, so I won't guess, but I think it's very nice looking, despite the fact that it's been cleaned or dipped previously....
Very cool collection idea! It's neat to see evidence of people's lives who are long gone. I think my favorite is the "Pete" one with the chick...
There's usually not too many fake bust quarters that I see on eBay, but when they do show up they are almost always this type. Another attribution...
My new 1828 (B-4, R.3) quarter arrived Saturday from J. Robinson Rare Coins! I now only need an 1822 to consider my large sized capped bust...
As the title states, check out the link for a counterfeit 1821 quarter. I usually hate to call out a coin so fervently without others'...
Interesting design, I think I kind of like it. The one on the article that really grinds my gears is the 2019 Native American dollar reverse with...
This thread had me sold on the book, and mine arrived today (technically yesterday). All I can say is that it is a beast of a book! This'll...
For some reason the pictures aren't showing up. Are you using the Tapatalk app? If so try posting the pictures using a regular browser since...
That definitely looks like a very informative book. Does anyone know if there are significant differences between volumes in the standard,...
As a capped bust quarter collecter, I was very excited when the NGC app on my phone notified me that a third die marriage for 1822 quarters had...
Good luck getting it out of Hawaii, because I'm pretty sure you can't put mercury onboard a plane since it could eat through the aluminum in the...
I think you mean B-6 because there isn't a B-7 (or at least I haven't heard of it yet). According to the Steve Tompkins book, it appears that B-1...
Cool thread idea! I'd probably buy another capped bust quarter to add to my collection (G to G+ for large diameter, F or so for small diameter).
It's pretty fun to try to guess the grades on these! Is the raised line at the edge of the rim from star 8 to star 10 caused by die deterioration...
I have to agree. The reverse looks like mites or fleas or something are falling off the eagle's wings!
