I have something sched. for next week. I expected this one to be a burn. [ATTACH]
Environmental damage/ acid has eaten away some of the metal. Since a dime is smaller than a cent, if a dime planchet was struck in the penny...
It's so damaged and harshly cleaned, I can't tell if it is real or not. I guess you would have to send it in and hope it comes back Details/...
Obverse shows wear on the high points. AU maybe. But not MS.
Hmmm. Maybe not. Look at the cut outs in the bottom of the wings on the fake. Washington's hair is all wrong especially at the bottom. I retract...
Yes that's to show the rim is clearly a fake. When I got the quarter it was very "shiny". So I looked at it closer, and I realized it was...
Better than having a 1923 and thinking it's a 1928. This is a difficult coin to grade as it appears to have wear, but the photos are not great and...
Ideally you want 5 leading zeroes (or more). Traditionally low serial numbers are 100 and less. But I guess that has been expanded to 999 or less....

There are older tokens that sell for $3 and $5.
When I worked in a few casinos in Central City, Colorado, many people collected all the different tokens. You were only supposed to use them in...
The rims were completed. Show a photo next to a regular one for comparison. If it was a small planchet and struck, the rims would be missing or...
Here is my counterfeit quarter. If it is made in China (or somewhere) at 2 cents apiece and spent for .25 cents, there is a profit to be made. The...
So many people with perfect pitch. Forget about this dropping a quarter/ sound stuff.
As to the question in the OP, it is the exact opposite. These economic hardships have caused collectibles (baseball cards and coins) to create...
No. And even if it were true test coins aren't put into circulation.
This is what you have to realize with a foreign planchet. Almost ALL foreign coins have a different SIZE and weight than US coins. This is done...
I just got this, interesting anyway. [ATTACH]
Nate you don't have one. There are other threads on this subject and if you read them you will realize it's impossible. If I recall, even if you...
OK I guess considering China has destroyed the Earth. [ATTACH]
