I'm a Canadian Vicky Large Cent person, so 5 cents aren't my expertise. From the photos, it's hard to tell. Geo's mustache, the beads on the...
These guys usually have a few misc albums/folders that they don't list, but they have quite a few that they stock pretty well....
I have a friend that has 20 or so mid-1970's commemorative silver 5 mark Germany coins. Some are UNC and some proof that were part of a small...
Unless you have the coin in a holder with an axis drawn on both sides, or you take a photo with the coin and a mirror behind it (and a little ways...
I'd say VF-20 .. some jewels in the crown still there.
I thought that pickings were a little slim for individual city-states after the 1880's-90's. I thought that there were only a handful into the...
It looks like the coin was assaulted in a dark alley. I give lots of old worthless large cents away to friends to use as golf ball markers on the...
Looks like a little machine/mechanical doubling. Also lots of repunched final digits in the Ed series.
Nice '92 Obv 4.
That's a fairly common variety with the first 3 digits very slightly doubled. I also think that I see a little wear in the tufts around the ear...
I see nothing either.
It most definitely NOT a far date, not even close. In 1896, the last digit was handpunched into each working die. As such, there are as many...
princeofwaldo: That is the deal that I got(it was about that long ago) ... the books all on one disc. I never knew it was a one-time shot. I...
I've found that, working with large cents, if the vertigris is hard or compacted that you can get it off with a combination of thorns and...
You can get the whole Krause series from 1600 up until nearly today on a single disc, but I find it cumbersome to use. Any of those books will...
The '45 spent some time in the oven, in a potato, old wet brown paper towel or a combination of all of the above.
I'm anxious to see the results. Just don't be breathing the acetone, since that's when it is dangerous .. use a vent or hood or small fan.
Use hawthorn thorns from a tree rather than .. it has thousands of them free for the taking. They are from 1" to 3" long, extremely sharp and...
The good thing about Eds and Geos is that most can be had, in lower MS, for well less than $25 ... some even less than $10. Canadian Large Cents...
For the 1922's, they look the same size to me .. just that one is infinitely more worn than the other. The design elements (including the date)...
