Nice find for an antique mall! In my experience antique mall coin sellers usually have hugely overpriced,cleaned,polished and overgraded coins. I...
What a nice,pensive post.:smile
Here's my possibly hair-brained theory. Is it possible that some kind of contaminate is being impregnated onto the surface of the copper when the...
For me the easiest way to tell the difference is like this. Notice on the '88 reverse the top loop of the G is even with the right edge of the...
Cool contest, thanks for putting it on hamman88 and congrats to Ryan on the win. Nice to see a YN win this.:thumb:

Here's one. This is my present favorite. And for my prize, a 1968 and a 1969 uncirculated mint set.

Yeah, I agree, at the end of the day you still gotta feel good about what consequences your actions have. By the way if she was filthy rich I...
Is this little old lady filthy rich or on a fixed income? :smile
I guess I would agree with this point of view unless the boss were a close aquaintence or a friend.
I forgot to add that you can pick up the proof Lincoln set on ebay for around $10.00-$15.00.
Yep the proofs are all copper. The ones in the uncirculated sets are copper also but in the satin finish.
I was under the impression that it was worn dies that caused those lines. Not sure where I got that from but here's another example.
I don't know that he's totally innocent here either. In one pic he's showing the edge lettering on the coin so I'm thinking he does know something...
I'm by no means a lawyer so you may be right about that. All I know is when I report them they get removed. I reported it , we'll see what happens.
So then we'll have to have a 71 grade to diffrentiate between an extra special perfect coin versus just an average perfect one?:rolling:
