Could be a blank planchet, but since you found it on the ground, it could be anything. I actually don't think it is, because the rims are not...
Those dudes are one time posters from years ago. They won't be back. But where'd you find yours? They're likely reproductions.
Well, it's a rough estimate. 1947 or '48 could both be correct, since I don't believe the SH year begins on January 1st and ends on December...
No, it's not silver. The US was striking Panama's coins with the same planchets. So 1964 half balboas are 90%, 1965-70 are 40%, and later are clad.
That thing is plated. I've found them too. Sometimes by the roll. [ATTACH][ATTACH]
They've been changing up the reverse designs in recent years. And the rim-width would just have to do with the strike quality I believe...?
At all their stores, the inventory is discounted. I think they're at 50-70% off currently. The website doesn't have the same discounts....
Yeah, I haven't had a big score in a while. Since work's picked up, though, I've been doing less bank to bank to bank asking and more boxes, as...
I bought one of their cull/damaged bags for fairly cheap, just for fun. There was a lot of steelies, mostly with rust or ones that have been...
Well, it's obviously not a dug coin then, or if it is, it was a random find. The obverse in particular just looks to me like it used to have some...
Yeah, the real sad part is that these coins are going to end up on the market, eventually, getting mixed in with real morgans.
I recently sold $30 worth of NIFCs on ebay. I listed with an accurate description (most were high AU). After fees and such, I made about 3 cents...
If you send it to NCS, make sure to post an after photo. I'd like to see what they do with it.
That's a pretty bold statement there. Them's fightin' words!
Yeah, Siggi is right. Those tiny off center strikes are fairly common. Off center coins will have a small premium around 10% off center, but...
I just don't think many of the middle class have money tied up in gold. Sure, maybe the wealthy do, but not all of them. I don't know many...
Nice pun there.
Well, that slick look and damage on that coin is because it's been harshly cleaned. Hopefully your grandfather wasn't the one who cleaned them...
I'm not the guy to ask, so others with more early dollar knowledge will likely chime in. However, it would be helpful if you could post the...
God... That's a problem many of us would love to have. It sure must be rough, getting all those 40%ers. What an issue. You could always dump...
