The lack of denticles doesn't particularly concern me on this coin, it is not unheard of for a bustie to completely lack them. I would guess that...
yeah, I caught that but I was still teasing him none the less. ;)
With no more info than you have given us the best I can do is give you a price range. It is worth between $5 and $500,000. The low end of the...
you must have missed the fact that this coin is MORE than an inch larger in diameter and nearly 6 times as heavy as a genuine example would be....
could you post close up pictures of the date and of 50C (especially the 5's are important). That should be enough to identify the die variety if...

one thing you could look for is a dealer who is a member of the PNG. The entry requirements are pretty high and they do a decent job of policing...
Nick, Unless those coins have some original luster that isn't showing in your pics I would agree that they are XF/AU dipped coins. I have a...
I don't think that's a thumb print, it's just too big. A lot of times coins have a halo look around the central device when the luster is very...
hmm, Macaulay Culkin, Ted Danson, I think I'd tune out quickly too!
It's an o-103 with the tailfeather through the olive branch and the high placement of the 1 in the date being diagnostic. It looks like a VF30...
