It's really just a nickel, and only worth 5 cents. There's nothing to look into. The amount of weight off from the tolerance is not enough (as I...
The 60-D SD/LD is quite rare, and you are able to see both types of dates. On the OP coin all I see is the small date, and slight doubling (RPM?)...
Combined with the thin planchet possibility, there is a great deal of wear from 80 years of circulation which could have taken a little weight...
The NIFC's are lower mintage so people save them. However, because they don't circulate the survival rate is always going to be close to 100%....
Very good photos.
You can't curse here, and it takes much longer than that to get a coin back. It was no where close to being 67 even if it was real which is...
Pay phones took them, parking meters took them, and vending machines. When things cost a dime, and the metal just needed to be the correct size....
Looks pretty nice. It's not much over melt. It's a win/win.
That's a good one. Nice error. Nice condition too.
The inside is copper. The outside on the obverse and reverse is an alloy of copper and nickel. The nickel is what gives it the whiter appearance....
Unless they have changed the criteria, that's the rule. MS coins only, no proofs and no grades lower than MS 60. What I don't understand is why...
If it's AU it can't be FS. While technically it's probably not FS, the grading company prob graded it FS. Much too much chatter for 66. I am...
Always check the 1964-D for the valuable C reverse. [ATTACH]
A guy is going through his closet and he finds in the pocket of an old sport coat, a shoe repair ticket from 25 years ago. He has to go to the old...
Back in the day, these old beauties were routinely cleaned. People were proud of their collection and wanted to show off a coin that wasn't dirty....
The problem with the zinc cents, they react and tone very easily. In a few years they will be indiscernible globs of metal. While I am not a huge...
No. Improperly cleaned/ polished. Silver value only. 35% silver.
If you change the size, shape or metal content, too many machines would have to be refitted (tolls etc.) for the new coins, so that's not...
OP looks large. The small date is very stubby and the tails on the 6 and 9 don't extend at all.
Dere's all dis dough see. Under a big W. I like when he kicks the bucket.
