I’m a little late to the party but I agree with 63. Strong luster and very attractive toning…imo…Spark
Well, like the other one, it could be an unassigned variety, not much to go on. I suppose it could be minor clashing, but keep in mind it is...
Could be an un-assigned variety, as you said there are quite a few involving the fingers in that spot. One other thing you could try is check at...
It’s part of the design. Compare it to a copy in better condition…imo…Spark
Correct. Another tell to keep in mind about MD…until around 1990, the mint mark was added to the die afterwards, and since, on your coin, both...
Tell us where the error is supposed to be, don’t make us guess. The first two could be STG, but so minor and common to have no value. I don’t...
Although your pictures are horrible, it looks like you found a dryer coin. Constantly rolling around in a dryer will curl up the rim and abrade...
Yes, it is die deterioration or die erosion: the die pair was used well past a normal cycle. Who knows? Maybe the Mint employee fell asleep at...

@Amberlarry22 …Yeah, I was playing devil’s advocate and played the 65 cent result. So you can put your heart back in your chest again and...

…and that usually means it is not die doubling. I believe what you have is damage or contact wear. The R/AMERICA is the only area to be affected...
What did you find at Variety Vista? Wexler?…Spark
Based on the info provided in post #11, at AU55 it is worth 65 cents. Anyone wanting to know how I reached this value, send me a PM. Spark
AU53/55…2 cents/NumisMedia…Spark
Definitely a Rev. of ‘89…the bottom of the Memorial/close-up of the FG…gives you a good assessment of the wear condition. I would go...
An authentic $1 gold fractional produced in 1849 weighs 1.67 gram and has a diameter of 13mm. Your “token” is about the same size but is 1.10...
Don’t make us guess. Tell us where you suspect doubling. And post in-focus close-ups of the area(s) in question. Full obverse, full reverse...
I’m in for Lot 6. But not for myself. My niece Emily is a budding YN, so they will go to her. She’s almost 14 and lives in the Houston, Texas...
