Actually I should clarify. In the case of a capped die the next coins are not struck through, but are struck by the coin stuck in the die. In a...
Well, going by what I know of error coin in general I would have been doubtful. Personally I don't know much about the prez dollar series and the...
I know, but I'm confused as to if it's a perfect 0 or if it's slightly mis-shaped. I guess it doesn't make a difference for a dropped filling,...
it's totally the way to go if you're looking for a quick flip. The person that wins it will be the one to break it up and maximize profit. But,...
Yea, I'll go for that. =) The funny thing here is how fickle die clashes can be. Half of a circle clashes, it'll most likely show in relief. A...
You are COMPETELY wrong about that. A capped die and a coin struck by a capped die coin are two different things. A coin struck through a capped...
Looks like mostly mechanical doubling, as most of it looks like flat shelving. The "In God We Trust" looks like rounded extra material, possibly...
Scratchin' my head on this one. :scratch:
The hammer price would agree with you completely. 2008 was the high of the Russian coin market. A coin with truly only 3 examples known would have...
If it's 80% or 90% silver then it would be an old numismatic forgery, rather than a contemporary counterfeit. It wouldn't make sense for a...
Probably like 100x rarer. The 2008 Stacks auction listing I posted mentions there's only 3 copper plate roubles known at the time. There are...
Technically yes. But only if you choose to claim it. If you fall under the $20k and 200 transaction limit, then you have a choice. Over that you...
Already have. =)
That is actually a very nice group of contemporary counterfeits. Check PM. =)
It may well be a case of official dies falling into the wrong hands. This is known to have happened at a couple of the Mexican mints in the...
Did you say 2 feet x 2 feet? :eek: They're actually much smaller. The exact same one you posted was listed on the London Coin Galleries website...
By always do you mean just the last few days? Because we've never debated/argued/thrown turd bombs before that. And sadly, I don't think you...
I'd have to go with struck through rather than a capped die, because the coin is completely normal in shape with solid rims. Sometimes a coin...
Nice example. Most of these I see have been cleaned. $30 is a fair price.
That is much too low. Even considering the condition I don't think the wear can account for over a 0.4 gram weight difference on a coin this...
