Looks like a fine collection, and being your birthday, maybe you'll treat yourself to an upgrade at some spot in your collection. I have a...
That's a fun one and certainly one of the more obvious (@Bones-65). Worth a couple of bucks in that condition too. Many RPMs in the 50s and 60s...
Here's the link to that RPM - 1955d1mm002 Die Variety Information - coppercoins.com
Thanks for the tips! On my old, less discriminating metal detectors, I learned to dig everything. And it paid off many times. Still, I'm sure...
Could be. These tokens get tossed into cup holders and lost there for long periods. Catching moisture regularly, these tokens don't hold up well...
Now that I picked up the Vanquish, I need to get to a few old spots to canvas once again. I've only about 2 hours on the new machine...I need to...
[ATTACH] Here's a quick pic of a 1955 PMDD, middle to late die stage. I put the light at 3 o'clock to cast shadows on the to the west. Yet,...
Paddyman has a talent for sure...and some excellent spots locally. I'm interested in getting back out there this spring once the ground thaws a bit.
I sympathize. It's getting harder to find the RPMs amongst the Zincolns. Time and deterioration are hiding details and markers.
Can you make out a split in the upper serif? I can't tell from your photo.
The Zincolns can be troublesome, especially as time passes.
Always fun seeing what you found. Cap gun got me wondering: wonder if you'll ever find a real one to crack a cold case.
What likely caused this in my opinion are coins that are overlapping and stuck together. Clients of mine have to plate/outside coat things and...
I found a 1998 WAM with barnacles and after soaking it in DI water for a week, nothing was making them budge. I think that I tried the 50/50...
It's good advice @Mountain Man. I knew you'd be along to drop the note.
Hi @Mountain Man. Yes, it's one I got off the LCS bid board a while back. I need to take some pictures of it at some point. I took this one in...
A little out of focus, but clearly a nice specimen. Can you get better focused pics?
Turning off the flash will help with your photos, but I agree with Spark. John has pointed you at something to consider, but if you post better...
That's a tough cent right there. Any likeness to lettering is coincidental. If you feel like experimenting on it, you could rub some catsup on...
