They all look absolutely fake. There is no silver patina at all. The designs are mushy and the toning/patina is exactly the same on all of them....
The war nickels are all 35% silver 56% copper and 9% manganese. The weight remained at 5g as all nickels from all series are 5g. The new composite...
George Jefferson? Well he is movin' on up.
I never assumed it was there for more than a very short time. A recent drop.
Where I live all the parks have been cleaned out (I spoke with an old timer who was in a club with hundred of detectors and they have gone over...

Don't understand any of this. If you don't have BOTH bills that are matching you have nothing. The photo isn't a star note. So they are claiming a...
I'm sorry. IDK what I was thinking, I have been sick the last few days. Yes the steelies will stick to a magnet because of the iron content in the...
Plating doesn't have to be magnetic. Only nickel, iron and cobalt are magnetic. Because US nickels are only 25% nickel they don't stick to a...
If it were a genuine 1944 steelie the value is incredibly high. USA Coin Book lists 30 of these pieces. IDK how you can be certain it was...
It did look like a strike through to me. ^^^^^ That would be an error and a keeper.
Even with the sterling silver heart charm it was brutal out there. The picture makes it look like an OK hunt, but as Wreckless Eric said: I'd go...
