Unlikely to have a 40% silver planchet still in the bin 4 years later. Ring test is no measure of anything. As for the weight clads are 11.34g...
If it is fake, manufactured post mint, no point in having it slabbed. How did you acquire it? Cost? Etc. I am only asking because things like that...
The 1913 V nickel is an illegal coin as it was never authorized by the mint, and clandestinely produced by a rogue mint worker with proof dies....
The 1916 seems to be in very good shape VF 35. And the 1930 F-15. The 1930 buffs all look very worn /overused dies.
Assuming it was real, it would be impossible to have a mint mark from Philadelphia, and a mint mark from Denver. The good news is a magician's...
She takes it to a place where she buys beads/silver etc. And sometimes she has scrap silver to redeem. So they will test anything she brings in...
Pretty much a bust. But then this Hershey's Kiss charm is stamped 925 (China). GF thinks it's real, but I will get it tested to see. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Quarter and a penny stuck together on the grill. A little warm water and dish soap and degluified cleanly, easily and quickly.
Had to go to 2 stores. .50 and .11. Not complaining. As Lefty said in Donnie Brasco when he was trying to break open a parking meter: "A score's a...
As Paddy says a thicker planchet. While it is out of tolerance, it's only slightly out. 2.98- 3.24. But it is cool and worth keeping. And as...

A little verdigris on the 57 but both keepers for sure.
They give them in change at strip clubs, so you are tipping the girls $2 instead of $1. But I wouldn't know anything about that.
It's not grains, it's grams. There's 437.5 grains in an ounce and 480 in a troy ounce. 1.66 grams is just slightly heavier than half the weight of...
No silver but a very nice scoop. [ATTACH]
@scottishmoney a refrigerator magnet will tell you if it is silver or nickel.
Because the lettering is reversed you can imagine a coin being squeezed in a vise onto another coin, giving you the mirror image. If it was struck...
Nice to get a highlight. Dollar coin in the barrio. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
People have done that to me many times, and I have never once gotten an alert. Sometimes I will see the post a few days later, and they are not...
Yes as Steve says it's younger than 1963, as the date stays the same until there is a design change. But it is a star note and it's almost a nice...
Separate names with a comma.
