I assume the notch is just because they are hand made, but it could be anything. I don't think it detracts from the piece at all. I remember in...
Since the reverse is upside down if you flip it like a page, I prefer the coin not be turned upside down.
Whoa. The ones I have look as if they have been circulating for 150 years.
Very nice. I wouldn't know how to grade this. Taking a stab at it. There is some ED, a little corrosion not too much. A little gouge at 3 o'clock....

This is a disgrace that someone would destroy these coins in this manner. Sorry.
That one brownie won't spend but a good haul compared to what I have been getting. [ATTACH]
1st score in awhile. 1959-D silver quarter. [ATTACH]
Usually if there is a DD which is not mechanical doubling, die deterioration or w/e, if is very obvious to see. And the DDs that are not obvious...
