So, it's your contention that this planchet is a bit newer than I had first thought? ;) That's a very interesting theory - so does anyone here...
Good afternoon! I find myself again poking through old batches of coins here, and I've come across a blank planchet that appears to be from...
I was just thinking, it's been a REALLY long time since I bulk submitted anything. Prices could be vastly different with everything that's been...
Good evening! I've been saving some nicer Jefferson Nickels for a future TPG bulk submission. Every once in a while, I go through the tube and...
Okay, two last photos. First, the LIBERTY side, looking straight on at the edge (you can see the little square bit sticking up here) [ATTACH]...
