Just picked this up today from a world junk bucket. Clearly Mexico, 1850’s. 28mm diameter and 6.79g. looks like...
Not quite what I was saying. I used to think that a split planchet would occur fairly immediately after minting and both halves would be found in...
Looks like legit delam/split planchet. Very cool. But weird that it’s that circulated?

Picked up 3 1960 Colombia 1 centavo coins. Two are the 1810-1960 circulating commemorative. Both examples have nice die cracks on the reverse. The...
Picked these two up from a junk world bin recently. Didn’t know what they were until I got home and did some research. Very cool and happy to have...

Is it weird that the Numista example is only 1954 and mine looks to be 1951? Also mine is 1.40g vs the 1.17g listed?
3 minutes…. Ridiculous, and thanks. I guess getting the date wrong makes it hard.
I bought a silver lot because it had this mystery coin in it. No idea what it is. I believe the date says 1330 (1912) but not 100% sure. Coin is...
Too lazy for a clad proof….
Odd find today - 2007S proof Kennedy high grade cameo.
