Besides what looks like a small lamination by the ear, (there should be a flake of metal but do not break it off.) There seems to be some extra...
The better photos and the history of weak strikes suggests that AU is correct.
So it was a huge scrounge, I break even on the gas. But the chain is marked 417 which means 41.7% (10K) 4.4 grams $140.[ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Nice one Paddy. 1919 is my oldest Coin Star cent. And it wasn't in the slot, it was on the grill near the acceptor.
It's a great looking AU 58 and a good price at $935. USA Coin Book has 1822 AU 50 listed at $919.
The hair is correct. This coin is a Draped Bust 1796-1807. I can't see from the images but it must be from 1800-1807. Still worth way over $8 even...
While I am not a fan of AI this is what AI says: "Black spots on copper coins are typically a form of oxidation or corrosion, often referred to as...
I didn't say you cleaned it or asked if you cleaned it. The coin is 160 years old, someone may have cleaned it before it came into your possession.

In the US it is not considered gold if it is below 10K. for example I have found rings metal detecting that say 10K Mexico, and they are gold but...
The 1895-O is a key date and worth over $500 in G-04. Of course this coin is severely damaged but it is still worth a lot more than melt, someone...
Last week was a horrendous disaster. I had one good spot/spill near the end but the other 95% of the hunt was just beat after beat after beat....
Every single digit on the left coin looks bad.

Yes I see the way it is set up and the coin is just in the holder. Of course I forgot about all the dollar coins minted and that total is 28...
14 million coins were produced that year. It's 13-1 against. The area on the reverse where the mint mark would be, may not even be there (looking...
They didn't make this coin in silver. It is true that in the past, coins could have been mistakenly stuck on silver planchets. But in this case...
