Truly awesome! The gold bar at 27.4 pounds produces 438.4 one oz. gold coins, if it used every part of the bar. My guess is they punch about 410...
Very nice. I like the holder design. The illustration and the text really make it complete. Maybe 2 or 3 grams of gold. I get chills looking...
Beware of counterfeits, and fake holders and labels. As long as you stick to reputable sources like dealers at shows your chances are pretty...
Not quite a win. The nickel I got back was a 2004-D Jeff that had no known doubling varieties. I grumbled. (Now, that’s a die hard collector...
2 days ago I deliberately fed a Walmart self-checkout machine cash so it would give back 4 pennies…it gave me a nickel.
Actually, the OP coin is also 1848. Both coins have viii at the end.
IMO….the curvature does not look right. I don’t think any US denomination would have incomplete planchets punched with this degree of small...
@paddyman98 …how about it, Ed? What would be a fair value for this coin?
1982. The coin in the picture is a 1982 small date copper. It is still a common/error and not worth the grading fee.
It’s a strike error where the coin was not properly seated in the collar die when struck. It is a common error not worth any appreciable premium....
After reviewing the section on die trails at error-ref, this seems to make the most sense. Big thanks to @Pickin and Grinin . And thanks to all...
I saved this from circulation 22July15 but found some odd doubling about 4 days ago. It's a 2001-D Rhode Island State quarter with doubling under...
I’m thinking there was quite a bit of debate done by the upper level muckity mucks of the Mint and Congress prior to the roll out of the small...
The tear was absorbed by a french fry…:-( Yes, it is a shame…but the shortage is not my fault! Since 2020 I have returned to circulation over...
Obverse VG10, Reverse F12…there’s a lot of good left on the reverse but the obverse holding it back…great lookin’ coin!…Spark
Misaligned die strike. But I think the missing design elements are due to circulation since the rim was gone from the MAD…imo…Spark
We don’t know how old that picture is, but once the plating is breached it corrodes quickly if they remain unprotected. Even split-plating can be...
Plating issue…a large plating blister.
Silver quarters are $9.05 melt, silver dimes $3.62. Nice haul, once again…good payoff for 7 hours. Hope your Mom is feeling better…Spark
The 1926 Peace is definitely fake. As mentioned, you need to weigh the others, look in your Red Book, use your digital scale. How much did you...
