Airtites are great for coin storage, but when you pay $0.50+ per coin for an airtite, you better have deep wallets. I use mylar flips for the...
They are called Saflips, you can buy them online.
I find it funny that they actually offer to purchase the coin from you; I wonder what they pay for it. Grading companies make mistakes etc. but...
The reverse has a die crack at about 11:00. There is also a major die crack starting at about 12:30 and extending to 2:30. There is also a...
How perceptive... ;) Error control in early coinage was not as well as it is today. Many dies were used long after their useful lifespan....
The reverse looks like it has a major die break and a bunch of gouges. I have a few lincolns that have the same kind of error on the obverse. I...
Looks altered, no real way to tell for sure with the amount of wear. The metal flow lines are gone and the edge of the clip is probably worn...

It's obviously post-mint damage. The last time a nickel cent was made was in 1864 and a transitional error seems out of the question to me....
There are so many different ancient coins, I just think it would be cool to clean up some and figure out what they are. Bonedigger has a few...
As far as I know, reeding and the rim have nothing to do with the die adjustment strike. I'm pretty sure the reeding and the rim are done before...

I am interested in starting a small ancients collection. There's a few of your guys that have some really nice ancients and I'm jealous. Where...
I also work as a cashier and I find good stuff from time to time. Silver in circulation is extremely rare and is probably there by accident. I...
I don't really see any casting bubbles. There's still a hint of mint lustre which would clue me into authenticity. Try to take it to meat,...
