The die makes thousands of coins, 100,000 or more. If the error was on the die there would be 100,000 of these coins. Your coin is damaged. If it...
Where the coins are put into the machine, there is a grill. They lift the handle up, and the coins fall into a slot at the right end. Well if you...
Bag marks can still be mint state while improperly cleaned is details. I don't want bag marks, but they are much more desirable than a noticeably...
I was just thinking pennies, but 1926 Nickel is awesome. I got 2 modern Canadian dimes on the shelf the other day. Today 17 cents. The other 4...
I can see the date 1914. But when coins are fried like this, even if you have something, you don't.
The 3 would have to have been struck to push that bottom piece down. I am inclined to agree with the 1951. The 5 already has that piece in that...

I vote real. Let's see the reverse. I am at AG-03. But being a key date, G-04 would not shock me.
That might be the oldest Canadian in the thread. Have to check jensenbay he gets a lot of Canadian coins. The 76 is a keeper for sure.
I have done the ground thing, and gotten some stuff. But it's such a pain to dig up the sod and put it back. 9 more quarters for 5000.
Dollar coins from metal detecting the last 3 years. The very 1st coin is from 18 years ago. [ATTACH]
I think 1959 is the most common date for this, but as Paddy shows, that 1964-D is very nice. And I have seen 1958's also.
