PF-64 RB. The lighting could be a factor in my RB assessment though. Definitely a proof, the rims give it away and I see a slight cameo effect...
I can faintly see the F in your photo.
It was one of those days where (if you were alive) you remember exactly where you were on that day. I was not quite 14 years old and was watching...
Many were saved because back then, the word got out that they were scarce.
Well, the shows I attend every month have certainly had an increase in people attending. To your point, though, perhaps internet sales have...
I'd like to see the 1894 Greek 5 ΛΕΠΤΑ (that's Lepta). The monarch on the obverse is George I, who was Prince Philip of Great Britain's...
The 2019 Red Book had a photo of this medal (pg. 12). It's not cleaned. This is how it looked when it was issued.
Looks like the drum had water in it and it spilled over. But the re-percussions...[ATTACH]
OK, you asked for it... [ATTACH]
I refuse to buy bullion "gimmick" coins.
Yes, it was a proof only year, only 2,350 were minted. That's why I'm still kicking myself for selling it.
@Randy Abercrombie Just out of curiosity, do you have an 1878? I'd love to see a photo of it if you do.
That's just awesome! Still wish I had my 1878...I've told the story here before so I won't repeat it.
Basically that's it. In the old days, before postage stamps and even afterwards for a time, letters were folded and sealed because the rates were...
It looks like a Chinese stampless cover. I'm a philatelist but I know nothing about these. Perhaps someone fluent in Chinese can help.
That's EXACTLY what they are for, testing ATMs. I used to repair ATM equipment for Diebold. De La Rue has also printed postage stamps for many...
Normally the other giveaway is that the genuine 1914-D has no VDB on Lincoln's shoulder, whereas an altered 1944-D MIGHT. I say "might" because...
Nice coin, but definitely not a proof. It's a 1971-D. The Denver mint doesn't make proofs. AU condition, maybe half a buck is all.
I haven't seen a single 2009 nickel in circulation. Not a one. I read somewhere that most of them went to Puerto Rico.
And the cents from 1944 to 1946 were made from spent shell casings.
Separate names with a comma.
