@Haley♡ …next time, tell us in what way the coin is unique or different. A better question would allow us to help you learn better. As it is,...
@hotwheelsearl …good luck at OCS. Remember you have a unique opportunity so strive to do your best in everything you encounter. When you...
Definitely looks MS. Uncommon to find in circulation, nowadays. But, since this was the last wheat date they were saved by the millions so they...
I guess I’m “it”…but I am not the boogeyman…I mean, I like to boogie as much as anyone…but I digress…I am going to sleep now. Goodnight....
This is a ‘57-D, not an S. Full Bands means several things to different TPGs. The upper and lower horizontal split bands need to be un-occluded,...
Classic example of what the oils on your fingers do to a coin. The oil from your fingers, if left on the coin long enough, will cause this type...
The US Mint found out in 1943 how horrible zinc was for coins, otherwise there would have been more than 1 year of zinc-plated steel cents....
As I have posted before, finding Zincolns without any defects is the harder task, from circulation or CRH, anyway. But I will concede that well...
Members here disagree all the time. The trick is to agree to disagree amicably, using facts, and to admit when you’re wrong. You must always be...
Nope. When you get right down to it this is a defective planchet with some aspects of eye appeal but should TPG grade a “Details- plating...
Acidic treatment, certainly something caustic. Could have been on it just long enough to cause that cracked surface effect…but the copper on the...
Looked at NGC World Coin Price Guide about 1:30 am this morning… Jersey lists 12 coins this date/denom, mostly battleground sites, but not yours....
Yes, welcome to Coin Talk. Seein’ as how this is your first post, here is some more help: Get yourself a Yeoman Red Book. Use it to research...
2 problems: your coin is a 1971-D, and your pictures are very pixelated. I don’t see any doubling.
You gotta buy a ticket to win the lottery, you gotta look for doubling to find it.
In retrospect, the value is less than 25 cents. I just finished a handful of ‘70 cents and I passed on 7 of them with this level of wear. I...
Agree. Looks to have been struck and then PMD to the reverse w/o affecting the obverse.
This is DDD, die deterioration doubling. The lettering has eroded edges, as opposed to MD, machine doubling with a flat and shelf-like shift to...
I said both. The 1809 looks cast and the denticles look suspect on the 1832.
@Alex G …get a Yeoman Red Book and read the Lincoln cent section. Around Oct. 1982 the U.S. Mint began striking Lincoln cents made from copper...
