It's not aluminum. They weren't made in San Fran. It would weigh very light. They were never issued as money. Even if one were to turn up, I...
There were some folds on all of them. But even circulated, listed retail I saw was $275, $75 and $75.
1986 Dryer coin, probably been in that long.
1 cent. It could be a greaser. NBD
3 or 5. But the 5 is more common. They didn't make any 1922's in San Fran or Philly that year.
Both large. It's possible that no one ever finds another 1982-D small date copper. And if they do it's not going to be you or I. There's also some...
That was intentional. Bowery Boys, Norm Crosby. It's a malapropism.
Or it could be a photoshop montage. A 1982-D small date zinc in one half, and a scale showing 3.1 in the other half. The coin looks zinc to me.
Yes of course it is a 1948. What he is saying is that someone was beginning to alter it to try to make it look like a 1943. I have seen a 1948...
All nickels are 5.0 war or regular. Shield nickels 5.0 V nickels 5.0 Buffalo nickels 5.0 Jeffersons 5.0 If this nickel is 5.7 it could be fake,...
I really doubt this is the 2nd 1982-D small date copper, 3.1 grams. But nice faketography.
Beauty. I see at least 12 holes. Can that be repaired and not look messy?
Plating is usually very thin and very light and doesn't add that much weight. I agree on the plating. But it still could be a thickly rolled planchet.
There are the 1943 steelies, and then in 1944 some 1943 planchets were struck. I think about 40 of them. USA Coin Book lists 39. 30 in Philly, 7...
If it's real it's prob plated over the steel cent. If it was copper it's been harshly cleaned. Could be an altered dated but the 3 looks OK. Odds...
I don't have any standards. Just pointing out what I saw on the OP's coins.
I have some largies and halves that I bought that are in trash condition. Live and learn. I still like them.
Basically Canadian dimes and quarters 80% silver through 1967. (the super old ones are 92.5 even some nickels). In 1968 some were 50% and some...
First one looks corroded. Second one cleaned with a wire brush.
It should weigh 5.0. It's prob still real and worth silver value .80 cents.
