Those are so mundane, why not get your own stamp and stamp every cent you find. here are some interesting designs, think of how many will find...
The P mintmark wasn't used at all on the Jeffersons except for WWII nickels and after 1980, so a 1961 would not have such. It appears to be die...
Not a hobo nickel, but a Hobo $5 alteration , IMO.
It is disturbing seeing newcomers with questions bypassing the expertise of some of our members which go far beyond 95% of "coin dealers" whose...
Before you send it to PCGS or NGC, call them and ask if they grade and then label the coin as you want it labeled. If you are going to sell it,...

Logic?? I certainly question anyone's logic that would debate with an anonymous person over unconfirmable statements to this point. No , it isn't...
Ok, this has gone far enough. Get back to the COIN ! not the people!
Generally , an attached lamination ( the flap is still hanging there) can have a little extra value, but usually it doesn't affect it or decreases...
I think it is a peeled lamination. Sometimes the mixture of the metal has "crud~ for lack of a better word" in it that when it is struck, pushes...
Welcome to the forum. It looks like the remains of a "pin backing" with the pivot being at the top and the retainer at the bottom. Or else a...
