Folks spend money to get things slabbed...only it's not slab-worthy to it's bagged and tagged. Then someone uses that to deceive others and make...
No premium as this is just damage. A split in the copper plate allowed exposure of the substrate to air and moisture. Hydrozyncite set it and...
I'm going to have to revisit my foreign CRH finds to see what I may or may not have.
Looks like yours is a pivot mostly about 8-2 o'clock. Looks like the lower half is mostly unaffected around JUGASLOVIJA (maybe a little...
Nice find!! Eddie - do you have photos of the full coin? Looks like Class IV on your coin.
I got mine for a nickel...during a CRH event. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Play around with taking photos. I see you were trying to take a picture using a loupe. As you probably know, you have to be dead center in the...
I've seen others find this counterstamp before, but I don't think I have. But the Lincoln-Kennedy cents come in various configurations and I've...
Maybe a stiff collar error. What's curious is that it appears mostly retained by the collar but oozed over the top...kind of like finning....
Furry and Paddy have you pointed in the right direction. May have spent time in both operations. Blasters, tumblers, vibratory tumblers are...

What is going on with the date or is that a reflection? Is the rim ok at 5 o’clock? Can’t tell using my phone.
I'm with the others Jeff. My guess is that the damage is done. Many coins like this get liberated and put into circulation.
Looks like the same RDV to me. CAMs with RDV 007 I think.
I certainly identify with that moment that 'something doesn't look right' and the delight that follows. Can be life altering, spur some...
CRH find? The 1882 in my avatar is the one that got away.
I'm partial to the V Nickel. Nice bargain find!!
