I think the nickel is a good one too. There is a slight weakness in the rim at about 1:00. A bigger image. [ATTACH]
Glad to hear of your positive results. Neat story.
I'm quessing there will be no mintage limits on any of the three issues. As a result they will all be overbought because people think these will...
I agree with the Rick and Rascal team.
That '31S in the OP looks a little fishy to me. It looks like some fakes I've seen before.
Nice! 65
I think die crack too. It reminds me of the ones you see on Peace dollars and Washington quarters.
The quandry though is if you find one you really really like and you can't get it for any less than $450, what do you do? Pass on it and settle...
Well it wasn't anything like a 10 dollar rip or anything like that. But I got it for what I thought was a very good price. In the VG range.
Yes, small date. S-291
It doesn't appear to be a broadstrike as it looks like it was struck in the collar. The beveled edge is the result of a less than full strike.
This is a fairly common place for die cracks on wheats. Not really any extra value.
Another way of looking at what Tom is saying is you look for coins that you'd like to own first before you even consider the price. If you like...
If they ship these like the HOF coins they would have to put then on sale tomorrow in order get them to collectors by August.o_O
I wouldn't recommend going coin shopping at a flea market as 99% of the time all you see is overpriced junk coins. But once in a great while you...
A pic of the reverse might be helpful.
That's a regular business strike Zincoln. A satin finish should weigh about 3.11 grams. The likelyhood of it being a DDR-010 is pretty slim.
If the satin finish means these are mint set coins then finding one of those in circulation would be about as rare as findind a DDR. Of course...
There's a much easier way. If it has a mintmark it's the collector version. No mintmark, it's a bullion version.
