If you're interested, that is the C-6 die marriage, consisting of Obverse 5 and Reverse E. It is R-1, one of the more common die marriages with...
These were all found in the "bargain bin" at my LCS for $5 to $15. Bought them just because I love early copper. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
They gave it the FH, erroneously, because the earhole is evident. I see a lot of SLQs with iffy FH designations but this is probably the most...
The cardboard rolls left over from your TP. Cut to length and free. Same for the rolls from paper towels.
Jefferson's are definitely not my area but I'll have a go anyway. I'll be a bit of an outlier and call it 62, no FS. I just think the relatively...
I took the obverse and mirrored it and rotated it 180 degrees and then overlaid it on the reverse. By shifting the center of the obverse down and...
Well @Morgandude11 you got yourself a whale of a GTG going. Congrats on rousing so much interest.
@AirborneReams , it doesn't matter if you use distilled or deionized water. In this application they are equivalent (you chemistry buffs out...
PMD can come from many sources and be of many types, sometimes on the same coin. I see evidence on your coin of the following types; 1)...
Acetone won't hurt it. The amount of time is dictated by how long it takes it takes to do the job. Try it for about 10 minutes and then see if...

The echoes from the rim shot are fading, the audience is getting restless.
Definitely post-mint damage. For your enjoyment, here's my 1794 that I am sure was run over by a beer cart in the streets of Philadelphia. PMD...
I believe that the early Americans would rather quickly adjust to the technological advancements of our day. They would however, never adjust to...
AU-55. I don't see much luster and I almost went details. The obverse is kinda weakly struck, stars are mostly flat and the hair weakness is...
Thank you all for your thoughts. I am still inclined to think it a planchet flaw. BTW, it doesn't make any difference to me, either...
So here's a low-grade 1804 C-13 half cent. Very common one that I've had for a while but I've never been able to decide if the obverse flaw at...
No doubt smarter then me - he sleeps most of the time.
It's more European currency deflation. They've been charging retail and business customers for the privilege of parking their cash in their banks...
So those Smithsonian Gold Unions are being displayed in a "jewelry mount"?!? Isn't that what those hooks are? Just half tongue in cheek.
