Wasn't it the 1919 Alabama Statehood Centennial? And they missed getting the half dollar struck in time?
Something weighed on Earth, Mars or Jupiter will have different weights, but would have the same mass. How's that?
Only on Earth. The mass of an object is the same regardless of where it is, but the weight depends on what the gravitational force is. The Earth,...
Not quite. Metric units are mass, not weight.
12 troy ounces in a pound (31.1g X 12) vs 16 in an Avoirdupois (28.3 g X 16). Do the math and see if they're equal.

Yep. It looks like the 2016 silver antiqued 1916 dime-quarter-half set of 1 oz. rounds.
The metal verifier probably won't work on a lot of the fakes. They are gold. The ones that aren't gold are easy to tell apart. The collector...
Just got this back from ANACS. I antiqued and and matted it. It was a bulk strike piece I picked up cheap on ebay and decided to make a matte...
They are attractive, and have better surfaces than the copper pieces, but my tastes have changed. I think that my favorite surfaces are the...
True. But the gilt pieces should more appropriately be called esais or patterns. The proofs are of the type and materials used for circulation.
If you do the shotgun approach and send in everything, it's probably 40%. If you are selective, it is much higher. Everything I have sent has...
Can you match it up to known varieties in the Gillio book? If not, it probably isn't one. Do you have pics?
Gilt Irish proofs are like gold-plated states quarters - they have lost their coin status.
As a chemist, I like it very much when you can cancel the units. I will have to do that. It doesn't work comparing pounds of gold to pounds of...
If gasoline is $10/gallon, everything will cost about 4-5x more. So $40 silver looks good, but has not kept up with inflation. People with less...
Welcome. I look at silver as a semi-precious metal, just like semi-key date coins. And I don't look at PMs as investments - they are money. I...
