No! No! Look again and stare a while. It's not just a 5. It is a 15 followed by the Greek letter delta. I think this is a die clash from an...
I know. I was trying to soften it a bit.
What Jersey magic is humorously saying is, please crop the background out of your photos so that the coins appear big enough in our screens that...
I would think it unlikely to find a 16D mercury in P-01 unless the grade were given for damage more than wear. In AG the D is hard to see, and...

I'm no expert, but from I see on this post and on its predecessor, you have become more of an expert on this bill than whoever looked at it at...
If you want information about your coin, you have to show us your coin, not just a small portion of it. From what you do show, it is nothing more...
They are hoping ignorant victims out there won't know what PMD stands for. "True PMD..." sounds like it gives a cachet of value while, if...
