…and now we all do…do you think the picture is worth anything? (…besides a thousand words…)
I am of the opinion that the word “conserve” rests in the domain of semantics. Without doing anything else, just putting a coin in a 2x2 flip is...
Kristine, I think you are doing too much “black vs white” on this. There are many “gray” areas too. You have objective criteria, hard and fast...
I ended up researching this and here is the answer I requested: The main PUP ( pick-up-point) for this coin is the 1 of the date. Question...
Where is the straight-serif PUP on the coin?
Yes, you need to insure it AND HAVE IT GO REGISTERED. Registered means it is signed for at each step it is handed off. So, it will cost more than...
Because sending to TPGs is not cheap. Also, I see you posting with the same mistakes. We’re here to help you learn, so we tell you when you...

…that’s no baby back rib he’s chewing on… Seriously, it looks like a elephant or rhino tusk horn he’s blowing. Fun coin!
…the coin roller made contact, the coin recessed, leaving only the partial ring…imo.
Pictures …are what drive the forums, so always post them to allow members to properly assess. Without them posts are useless, unless you are...
I saw this quickly, after comparing the dates. It’s one of the most prevalent damage issues in today’s coinage. I also agree #2 has die...
Yes
@Kristine Garrant …Make sure you get the right edition…the different parts are divided into specific groups. When I bought mine in 2014, it was...
We are all on the same page now. What’s important to remember is why you should weigh every 1983 cent: quite a few copper planchets remained in...
Make sure your scale is calibrated correctly. The tolerance for zinc cents is .1 gram , meaning your coin on a calibrated scale is only...
2 questions: Does it match anything listed at VV or Wexler, and what does it weigh? @Singletonsam
