Ok, I finally found internet examples that were of high enough resolution, graded by either PCGS or NGC. This one's KM#644 and graded MS-61, but...
Here's a close-up image of the obverse, with the macro setting on for full zoom-in capability (I'm still learning how to photograph so it gets a...
That's a nice example. I'm unsure of other coin types of the era, but from what I've seen, the 1914 2 pesos coin seems to have been an outlier in...
That short ray is a good tell - thanks, I'll look for that next time. There are so many varieties of Peace Dollars that I'm going to have to go...

Is it ever a good idea to submit a slabbed PCGS OGH coin to PCGS for a grade re-determination? Wouldn't that be a conflict of interest if PCGS...
Yes, thanks for that correction. The "medium relief" is one of the die variations - that image was added afterwards and out of thought lol. Are...
Does anyone here have a picture example of the reverse of a 1922-P Peace dollar business strike coin with a very high relief (either their own or...
I was unable to find much info on this DDR variety for this 1914 Mexico 2 Pesos Guerrero silver/gold coin. In fact, much of the spec info seems to...

Does this 1911 Barber dime appear to have a rotated die error? I tried to center the date on the obverse so that the center of the date bisects...
Minted circa 1936?
There were coin designs proposed to King Edward VIII until he unexpectedly abdicated from the throne in Dec 1936 to marry an American "commoner"...
Here are some of the silver coins I received in the mail today - I thought I'd snap some ok quality photos while I was going to take pics anyway:...
This is similar in concept, but uses paper notes as an example (image below). If a note during Germany's hyperinflation episode lost its intended...
I'm referring to the gold-copper(-silver alloy), typically 18kt-22kt or about 0.750 to 0.917 fineness, with enough copper to give the gold its red...
Nice, I didn't know that. Gold is proven, so maybe silver will be feasible, too! Though, I'm not a gold collector, as I'm not really interested...
I'm stating that it's a hybrid, though that was a later assertion from my initial inquiry.
But is a scuffed up planchet, in which the scuffs show up after its strike, a damaged coin? It's technically damage, but it's damage to the...
But for counter-stamps, isn't the counter-marking government effectively using a different government's coin as a planchet as-is? The...
