While it is scratched up now from cleaning, the amount of detail on the wheat stalks makes me think that this was in someone's collection before...
Halves are not available. I have been trying for almost 3 weeks to get a single half. A gift for an autistic boy. And I have been striking out....
My old LCS had boxes of coins on the counter, and you could just cherry pick the Mercs you wanted for around $1.50 each.
Worst are Effigy Mounds and Mt. Rushmore. Hot Springs is not bad, Mt. Hood is boring. There are many great designs in this series (ATB) hard to...
You can see how the diagonal line in the 2 doesn't curve. That's large. The delicate curvy 2 is the small. [ATTACH]
I think there is a gray area here, and as I said before I don't agree on their approach. Some of these coins can be graded. But some should not,...
I understand, and have seen some. I don't agree with it. You don't have 100% of the coin to grade.
IDK what they mean by copper shell. Plenty of zinc present. I would think it was a fragment. Maybe an expert would know. I like the piece very...
Counterfeits usually look bad. Dark ink, blurry lines. This looks fine. If it feels like every other bill you have, it's good. If it's fake it...
Looks fine. $100.
What is this current preponderance of missing clad layers? It's a normal 1976 Philly the most common Ike produced. If it was missing a clad layer...
Texture on the obverse is very bad. Reverse looks good. IDK if it is even a real 1911 cent. Maybe it's the light but the 1's look off.
Scratch on the reverse kills the grade, AU- details. Very old coins may get a little leeway on small scratches, but this scratch has gouged the...
The price guides are saying there are proofs, but they are unconfirmed. What does this mean? I was looking for a mintage number. NGC and Numista...
Are the other designs available for viewing? All I am seeing here are the Washingtons.
An uncirculated coin can have die deterioration doubling if the dies that struck the coin were late stage toward the end of their life and have...
Nice MAD. I would keep it for that, but not much value.
Medulla oblongata?
There are probably ways to bring out the date that would permanently damage the coin. I believe the date on some of these is to the right of the 2...
Junk silver is just an unfortunate term that these coins have acquired in the buying and selling end of silver. It was never a conscious effort to...
Separate names with a comma.
