Clever.
Not to be too dismissive either, but I have heard that GSC cracks out problem and details grade coins to sell them raw. It's probably genuine, but...
I am mostly seeing the doubling on the bottom of the U and S in TRUST. That looks like DDD. Again, I am not great at these LMC doubled dies. From...
Welcome to CT! I definitely see two die cracks: the one through the F and A from the eagle's wing, and the one from George Washington's portrait...
Hard to tell. I am seeing machine doubling, but that doesn't mean it is not the variety. I think the leftmost serif on the left leg of R is a good...

That is quite the impressive construction!
I know that. I was just trying to provide some sort of explanation clearly and explicitly. It doesn't matter who is driving the train. We're all...
I noticed that coin wrapping machine scratch on the interior edge, but I believe the OP is referring to the dots in the field. Those look like bag...

Yippee! Glad to hear it!
This thread became way too escalated on both sides. There's no need to take it to that point. My opinion: The image you sent of "TRUST" was very...
You're lucky! I found my best metal detecting find just the other day, it was an iron horseshoe or muleshoe in my yard! Just learned what...
That is pretty cool. It doesn't look like it, but are you sure it isn't glue? Nice find. Yes it does! I agree!
With those pictures it is a little hard to tell. I always have trouble with these LMC DDs anyways.
If I found one, I would keep it. It's fun, I like it, and it probably only costed me 25 cents! Not everything in coin collecting is about value ;)...
Oh my goodness! When you said coins will repatinate over time, I did not expect that great of a result. That is just amazing. I too was not the...
Hurray! I would most definitely love it if others used this thread, too, to showcase their efforts. I very much so appreciate this input and all...
You're right! I had not yet looked into it, but I considered the fact that the die letters were the small letters beneath Queen Elizabeth II's...
