Back to the OP- what is going on under *ahem!* Titus' portrait, there? Was this coin overstruck on another? The fields just look unusual. In an...
Dropping the "u" out of "Titus" is perhaps not quite so bad as I when I emailed my shift report at work and failed to type the "f" when I put...
Neat coins! I quite like that LRB, too. Funny typo. Read back over your post. ;)
Interesting. I tend to concur with the strikethrough theory.
I see some 40% halves in the loose Kennedies. I might not go TOO much over face, but definitely would offer a modest premium. How much of a...
Wow, I had missed this sad bit of news. Spend most of my time here rather than CU, these days.
Oh, thank you, fine sir.
I'm not sure rotated dies would add any premium on the early stuff like this - after all, the US Mint was a far more primitive operation in that...
They have turned up in circulation sometimes. I've found (slightly-impaired) proofs in circulation twice. Not silver ones, but I've heard of...

I dropped a BU roll of 1951-D Wheat cents and they rolled all over the place on our (sandy) hardwood floors. They didn't get too messed up and I...
They're neat coins. I got one in a bulk lot not long ago. Wasn't in anywhere approaching that condition, of course, but it wasn't bad, either,...
I couldn't have said it better myself.
I had forgotten that little nugget.
Since I recently posted this in one of the other "picture post" megathreads, and it's a world coin rather than US, why don't we slide back to...
It was a very long time before it dawned on me that these had different legionary numbers and names on them. I mean, I'd heard them referred to...
Hopefully not. If she responds to my gift offer, I've got something I think she'll really like.
@Linda Shierling - If you'll dry your tears and stop calling me Tarzan, I'll make it up to you, and send you something pretty in the mail, and...
Separate names with a comma.
