Fun time...dead ahead!
My dad saw something on the ground leaving a local diner and decided to pick it up. No date but he figured he'd give it to me anyway. We were...
Well done Juris!! Well done!!
Sharp details and decent fields. Looks like a liberated coin that was returned to service and took on some circulation damage. You got to it...
It's Type 2 based on the reverse design. Looks like two diagonal cutter marks on the coin along with the drilled hole. If it were for a...
I think we can attribute the coin with additional pictures. My thinking it's either 001 or 002. Either way, it's a valuable coin. Take a look...
Looks like a possible '38 Reverse. Buffalo and Silver have returned!!
As noted by our fellow enthusiasts, it's a proof which was probably liberated from a coin folder/album. The ring on the outer rim is indicative...
I haven't either, but there's always a first time during a CRH event (or spare change). I've not found a Zincoln lamination error yet either.

Welcome to the world of CRH! You can spend many hours pouring over mountains of coins trying to find the perfect specimens! For guidance, there...
Looks like it might be a rim-to-rim crack. The middle of the crack seems less defined than by the outer devices. Is this just a optics thing...
Thanks for the extra pictures. Your coin looks LDS with MD. You can also see that the die seems to be breaking down between the date and rim...
'38 reverse. And a nice '40 D!
It looks like the Obverse and Reverse dies are VLDS - what you are seeing is die deterioration to the extent that the outer and inner devices are...
4-Diamond IHCs? ;-)
I suspect that around 6 of those will have the '38 reverse design at this point.
Zincolns weigh around 2.5 grams so your 1991D is a little heavy. Perhaps from some additional plating to make it look like a Steelie...but of...
I suspected that the $50 note was close to being a spender. I had something similar that I held onto for 30+ years...never amounted to much. But...
