Incredibly worn die. All those wavy lines are awesome on top of the clips.
It's just "rusted". As Paddy says environmental damage. A very good way to test coins is to weigh them. If the weight is correct, it's usually not...
Yes in the $6 range retail. Not too worn. F-12 or better.
The holes are a heart breaker but some of these dates can be rare. You'll have to check them carefully 1 by 1.
Does not seem natural to me. And if it was legit I am at $250.
If it's a proof coin, then there is a chance.
Yes, I was replying to the poster who posted yesterday. As for everyone making new posts, it's really not necessary and just clogs up the board....
That comparison has nothing to do with what I posted. There basically aren't any 22 high reliefs, and there are over 50 million regulars.
The weight is not a huge concern, there is some +/- tolerance allowed and all the wear. A slightly thinner planchet is not rare. What I am saying...
1971 penny is a penny. $21? Even if it had some remarkable toning, OK a dime.
The original composition of this coin is 56% copper 35% silver and 9% manganese. It's almost 100% that is still the composition. There's no point...
Don't take what he said the wrong way. I also believe something is not adding up. Have you tested this magnet on other war nickels and regular...

The silver planchet alone could be $35. link: https://coinsite.com/us-error-coin-values/
There are blanks with the rim, and blanks without the rim. The ones without are worth more. Yours is prob $2- $3 depending if it is zinc or...
Why your 1922 Peace dollar is probably not worth 100K: Only 35,401 “High Relief” business strike Peace Dollars were produced in 1922, but all were...
It was not put there when it was made. It's a counterstamp. It's put on post mint. As a coin there is no value. 1 cent. However, people do collect...
I'd be surprised if acetone takes this off. I think it requires something harsher.
The problem with the obverse looking like a woody is this, on a copper cent it has gone through the planchet and the entire coin. This quarter is...
Most of my finds recently have been on the grill. Like this coin. It's a 1 baht from Thailand. It is cupro nickel worth 3.3 cents and the date...
