I like the show. I have seen them all. I wish there was a treasure but I know there isn't. The real shame of it is, there are tons of other places...
They certainly would not dig down to bedrock. Nor would they have the equipment, engineering, manpower or time to do so. These guys are so far...
To be a mint error "1980 Backwards D" would mean that the die that produced this coin had the error on it. That means 10's of thousands of other...
It may be the 2nd lowest minted wheatie next to the 1909 -S VDB, but there are other Lincoln cents that are rarer. 1955 doubled die 1922 no D...
Well here is the issue with cleaning. I am not saying you cleaned it. It could have been cleaned (and probably was) 100 years before you got it....
If they located the money pit. (And didn't they find it 5 seasons ago?) They could just dig it up. But then there would be no show. The brothers...
Near clearer photos. Without that I would guess, circulated, slanted 5 variety. $20-$25 if it has not been cleaned.
Yes thank it. I just wanted to compare that photo to the OP. You can see in Paddy 54's photo how much separation there is.
Agree that the lighting on this photo makes it appear that it has been cleaned.
There's no need to send it in. In the top photo on post 59 it is an obvious business strike coin. $15-$20 max retail.
I am not seeing it as a detached leg. There needs to be more space and separation between the top of the leg and the body.
The OP photo is not as detached as the example in post #4. It does seem slightly detached. A comparison photo of a non detached one would help.
Very nice. Take a look for the Almost thread. This is a clear almost.
In 1944 and 1945 the total for the 2 years of shell case cents is not at a mintage of 3 billion 642 million. Almost 400 million ounces. 25 million...
You can see that the obverse in the photo post 59a (top half) this is not a proof.
Looks Chinese from a mile away.
This year has been a little on the weak side. And this current "thing" is not going to help. Last year I did very well, and those hunts are...
They never used spent shell casings. The collection of, (massive amounts) shipping, melting down, makes it more than highly unlikely. Once these...
Had some things tested. The first one on the left which is not stamped and we both thought was real, came back real. The middle one which is not...
The luster appears to be plating and if it were copper and this circulated after 40 years it would be more copper colored and less shiny. By...
Separate names with a comma.
